La Mer

Eleventh song from the Left side of the double disc The Fragile. It begins with a piano solo and near the middle of the song the drums begin playing a jazz loop. This is one of the few songs of Nine Inch Nails that is played with almost all acoustic instruments. At the end of the song all the music and sounds reach a point that build a sonic atmosphere.

Lyrics

French version

Et quand le lour arrive
la tourner el ciel
Et la tourner la mer

et la mer eh ven embrasse moi
et la deneh ve moi logis

A rien pa peut arrete moi

English version

and when the day arrives
I'll become the sky
and I'll become the sea

and the sea will come to kiss me
for I am going home

nothing can stop me now
