La Tristesse Durera (Scream to a Sigh)

Life has been unfaithful
 And it all promised so, so much
 I am a relic
 I am just a petrified cry
 Wheeled out once a year, a cenotaph souvenir
 The applause nails down my silence
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
 I see liberals
 I am just a fashion accessory
 People send postcards
 And they all hope I'm feeling well
 I retreat into self-pity, it's so easy
 Where they patronize my misery
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
 I sold my medal, it paid a bill
 It sells at market stalls
 Parades Milan catwalks
 Oh, the sadness will never go
 Will never go away
 Baby, it's here to stay
 La tristesse durera
 Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
