The Forgotten Debt
Composé par l'auteur · Rendu par IAIl porte une dette dont il ne sait plus l’origine, un poids sans nom qui pèse sur chacun de ses pas. Le titre avance à demi-mot, dans le clair-obscur des remords, comme on feuillette un registre aux pages effacées en espérant y retrouver la vérité.

Paroles
There is a ledger in my chest,The ink is gone, the pages pressed,I know the sum, I feel the trace,But not the name, and not the face.
The interest grows, the hours are long,I sign my name, the sum is wrong,A chair kept empty at the board,A horn cut short, a severed cord.
Did I refuse, or was I madeTo leave the price I never paid?
The forgotten debt, the unpaid vow,I can't recall what's owed, or how,Yet every hour the bill comes due,And something in me knows it's true.Guilty of nothing, still I payFor something taken far away,Let me go back, let me stand,And pay in full with my own hand.
A palm was pressed against my chest,A voice said "Go," and kept the rest,A thread of warmth, a name half known,Then silence, and I stood alone.
The forgotten debt, the unpaid vow,I can't recall what's owed, or how,Yet every hour the bill comes due,And something in me knows it's true.Guilty of nothing, still I payFor something taken far away,Let me go back, let me stand,And pay in full with my own hand.
If I was spared, who paid my part?Who signed for me with a broken heart?Whoever chose, they chose for me,Now let me settle, and be free.
The forgotten debt, the unpaid vow,I can't recall what's owed, or how,Yet every hour the bill comes due,And something in me knows it's true.Guilty of nothing, still I payFor something taken far away,Let me go back, let me stand,And pay in full with my own hand.
The forgotten debt...I'm coming to pay
