Alcest - Protection Lyrics






La nuit comme une toile
Suspendue s'effondre
Et j'entends en moi
Des rugissements
Et je me débats
Je me débats
Contre les ombres
Qui nous transpercent
De part en part

Les houles de la mer
Sont une armure
Nous protégeant
Lorsque le jour s'étrangle
Tant d'armes
Tant de lames glaciales
Pour affronter les fauves
En nous grondant

[English translation:]

Night collapses as a
Suspended tapestry
And I hear
Roars within
And I struggle
And fight
The shadows
Piercing us
Like arrows

The swell of the sea
Is a suit of armor
To protect us
When day expires
So many blades
So many icy waves
To face the feral beasts
That growl inside of us

  2. B.... D....

    Sixième album magnifique comme les précédents on ne s'en lasse jamais bravo Alcest vous êtes les meilleurs 🤘🎶🎧🎶🤘

  3. B.... F....

    Great music. Still dont get when some people call this black metal though..and I love black metal

  4. �.... �....

    Sounds very TOOLish to me ;)

  5. M.... H....

    Can't wait to see you performe at Technikum München in February.. LOVE MARC ❤️ 🎸.... ADORE...

  6. E.... ....

    Reminds me of a crazy game of twister.

  7. h.... ....

    pERFection!

  8. b.... ....

    Fuckk I am so hooked on their new album, especially this melody which resonates at the highest intensity with Agalloch "Limbs", with the state expressed in a somewhat different manner.
    They are the efflux where Agalloch's flood turned dry.

  9. j.... ....

    within seconds recognized as Craig Murray video: opulent and impressive

  10. H.... F....

    Oh hell, this is soooo good

  11. M.... T....

    Boycott palm oil ! They burn the rain forest ! Triumph of Principles ! Long live Alcest !

  12. P.... ....

    Reminds me of Katatonia. Very good.

  13. j.... ....

    I too catch hell getting water out of my ear.

  14. �.... �....

    где настоящий Alcest???

  15. A.... D....

    Okay this is crazy but I think this may be my favorite song ever
    I can't stop hearing it - f**k it's incredible!

  16. B.... G....

    La tâche n'est pas aisée d'harmoniser la langue française aux rythmes lourds de la guitare et des percussions. Neige y parvient assez brillamment, presque à l'unisson, et cette chanson en est un autre exemple!

  17. P.... S....

    Epic video

  18. h.... ....

    he protec

  19. G.... L....

    not a big fan of Alcest, but this song is a masterpiece

  20. Y.... D....

    The beginning sounds like Enter Shikari - Sorry You're Not a Winner

  21. M.... L....

    hails from indonesia!!

  22. X.... C....

    i never realized the lyrics were in french :/

  23. B.... ....

    Whenever I hear Alcest (Especially when I saw them live once) their music makes me feel so small and sad... because my mind is just so overwhelmed and unable to deal with such beauty.

  24. d.... v....

    Um dos melhores álbuns que eu já ouvi!

  25. M.... B....

    As someone who suffers from depression, I see this video as a metaphor of what your mind can do to you until it rips the grace from your soul.

  26. M.... B....

    1:35 that look on her face.

  27. M.... B....

    I don’t understand what this song or video means, but it makes total sense to me.

  28. M.... M....

    Reseña de este disco aquí en Ocio y Metal-->>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2sW3MhLP4M&list=PLb3preaMloRflvY9Z6qzuDzHjBG9vUg97

  29. v.... ....

    director of this video probably watched The OA (moves and the near death experience)

  30. C.... D....

    Masterpiece. Greetings from Argentina!

  31. T.... ....

    Amoeba What’s in my Bag? brought me here.

  32. P.... S....

    BoNNíssima...

  33. g.... ....

    0:46

    Metal AF

  34. M.... L....

    The OA movements

  35. B.... M....

    How come I'm just discovering these guys!? Gives me a Tool meets Insomnium type vibe, good shit.

  36. S.... C....

    Beautiful

  37. A.... L....

    Nunca tinha ouvido essa banda, mas esse novo álbum me impressionou, estou ouvindo todo dia, viciante! E como é bom ainda poder descobrir algo novo e inspirado no Metal atual!!

  38. Y.... B....

    1:30 kamekamehaaaaaaaaaaa

  39. A.... A....

    Beautiful art !!!!

  40. �.... �....

    fcking awesome

  41. t.... ....

    Great drum work!

  42. s.... ....

    Please come to México!!!!!!!

  43. s.... r....

    A Masterpiece. 🙏❤🤘

  44. E.... T....

    Himaye
    Bak yine gece çöküyor ( tıpkı )
    Yarıda bırakılmış bir kilim misali
    İçten içe kulak veriyorum
    İçimdeki çığlıklara
    Bitmeyen münakaşalarlayım yine
    Savaşıyorum ( içimdeki )
    Gölgelere karşı
    Bizi ayırmaya çalışan ( gölgelere karşı )
    Parça ve paramparçayım
     
    Denizin kabarışı
    Bir miğfer misali
    Koruyor bizi
    Gün yavaşça solarken
    Onlarca silahla
    Onlarca buzdan bıçakla
    Yabani hayvanlara karşı
    Özellikle içimizde kükreyenlere

  45. L.... I....

    Nice band!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

  46. N.... R....

    Alcest is <3
    Alcest is Life.

  47. T.... ....

    One of the best things about this year. I discovered this band! I found this treasure

  48. m.... m....

    J'adore vraiment ce groupe

  49. M.... K....

    Love you Alcest. Forever 💜

  50. C.... G....

    Please come to Greece...

  51. v.... ....

    2,33. no underwear

  52. F.... P....

    this video is like a big metaphor of pregnancy

  53. A.... H....

    Cold, hard, sharp sound, certainly one of Alcest's darkest songs

  54. B.... G....

    I thought I was supposed to be listening to Scarlet Stories.

  55. D.... ....

    Reminiscent of the Oracle of Delphi from the movie "300".

  56. S.... D....

    Sehr schön! Danke :)

  57. h.... ....

    I just love Alcest <3 <3

    But I hate the fact that every band with big tremoloed guitar chords and some reverb is labelled as 'Alcest-like' by critics, lol

  58. J.... F....

    And i didn't see her underwear once, damnit!

  59. N.... A....

    Alcest is always great study music. But it's amazing to listen to when going through hard times

    N.... A....

    I'd say it's one of the worst kind of music to listen if you want to study lol. Way too emotionally powerful.

    N.... A....

    @Bousculade yeah that too but it helps me calm down as well

  60. M.... M....

    I'm glad they step back in their (Neige) music without leaving things learned in Kodama and Shelter. I would love they step back deeper again.

  61. e.... ....

    this is perfect !!!!! master piece

  62. J.... W....

    absolutely heaven is real for this stuff

  63. M.... G....

    Wow this is incredible, the drumms are sick 🖤

  64. S.... ....

    Absorber of every flickering sun
    arranging the pieces to vivid perfection.

  65. A.... R....

    Top 10 unoriginal metal video concepts:

    10: texas chainsaw massacre/band killed horror style
    9: theres bugs in my eyes
    8: band beach party pop style
    7: band roof gig with no audience at dawn
    6: pirate ship
    5: we're roman legionaries
    4: viking horror/sci fi
    3: band mobbed by hot chicks
    2: WEIRD GIRL DANCES IN SLOW MOTION
    1: Band plays in CITY ON FIRE/CITY BEING DESTROYED ( i swear every metal band has at least on of this)

    A.... R....

    Name 20 vids to go with each point, I dare you to try

  66. A.... X....

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  67. L.... M....

  70. s.... o....

    This is beautiful

  71. T.... ....

    Breaking Benjamin-gaze. I still dig it. LOL.

  72. e.... ....

    I'm new to this band and I must say I'm deeply impressed with their music. I can't even put a finger on what drawns me to it, on a rational level. It just feels so emotional and powerful. I'll certainly look forward to this album! Oh, and the video too, it's just beautiful.

  73. x.... ....

    Ça fait trois jours que j'ai découvert cette chanson, trois jours que je ne m'en lasse pas. La première écoute m'as mis les larmes aux yeux et m'as réchauffé le cœur. Bizarrement, les autres écoutes me font le même effet. Cette chanson est juste sublime. Tout est parfait. Je suis peut-être pas très subjective mais les sentiments parlent à ma place je crois. Cette chanson me transperce et m'emmène dans un autre monde. Elle me donne envie de vivre ! Une œuvre d'art, autant la musique que le clip vidéo qui est très poignant. ♥

  74. S.... D....

    2019 is becoming a great year for metal listeners, and it could become even better if The Birthday Massacre shows up.

  75. V.... A....

    some annihilation movie vibes. anyway, amazing song and video really love it. love alcest.

  76. J.... D....

    My heart is exploding.

  77. s.... ....

    284 people just don't have the same taste in music as I do.

  78. T.... S....

    didn't know Maddie Ziegler danced for Alcest!

  79. S.... S....

    Всё вместе, это произведение искусства

  80. �.... �....

  81. M.... P....

    1:29 Hadouken!

  87. D.... A....

  88. U.... D....

    For your Protection, don't use LSD on the beach.

  89. e.... m....

    Epic Alarm!! Genial

  90. a.... ....

    This is perfection.

  91. M.... J....

    The main riff is reminiscent of mid 90's Tool. And I love it.

    M.... J....

    omg please don't compare Alcest and tool I HATE TOOL

  92. R.... ....

    I saw this type of dancing in another French group's video "Antagonism Of The Soul" by Insolvency (another otherworldly song like this). It really looks beautiful, how's it called?

  93. Z.... ....

    incroyable.

  94. H.... A....

    Neige! Taşşağını süte batırıp emcükliyim! Yine müthiş bi parça.
