Purgatory

Pat Benatar

Transposer:

We will be the forgotten ones They will shake their heads and pity us We who sacrificed our sons and daughters With the sweet taste of victory on our lips They will cry but their tears will come too late There is no redemption for the ones Who choose to walk in the shadows Oh sweet redeemer Will you save a place for me I am tired and I'm seeking restitution Oh will you heal me Will you take away my pain What I'm looking for is absolution Getting out of purgatory is no small accomplishment And the price is high And it comes with it's own set of conditions The choice is never clear And difficult to make But it will not change them They will just go on the way they always have Oh sweet redeemer Will you save a place for me I am tired and I'm seeking restitution Oh will you heal me Will you take away my pain What I'm looking for is absolution Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh sweet redeemer Will you save a place for me I am tired and I'm seeking restitution Oh will you heal me Will you take away my pain What I'm looking for is absolution

La chanson évoque la douleur et le sacrifice des générations qui ont perdu leurs proches dans la quête de la victoire. Elle fait ressentir une profonde tristesse face à l'indifférence des autres, qui, bien que compatissants, viennent trop tard. Le refrain exprime un besoin désespéré de rédemption et d'apaisement, une aspiration à l’absolution, tout en reconnaissant que le chemin hors du purgatoire est semé d'embûches. Les choix sont difficiles, et même si certains restent figés dans leurs habitudes, il y a une quête inébranlable pour guérir les blessures et retrouver la paix.
