Theme
This is a re-recorded version of the classic song from *'Youthanasia'*, featuring **Cristina Scabbia** of Lacuna Coil. The song is a poignant farewell note from a person on their deathbed, expressing love to everyone (**'À Tout le Monde'**) and asking to be **'set free'** from the pain of life. The re-recording adds a heavier sound and a duet element.
Lyrics
Don't remember where I was
I realized life was a **game**
The more seriously I took things
The harder the rules became
I had no idea what it'd cost
My life passed before my eyes
I found out how little I accomplished
All my plans denied
So as you read this know my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
**Smile when you think of me**
My body's gone that's all
**À tout le monde** (To all the world)
**À tout les amis** (To all my friends)
**Je vous aime** (I love you)
**Je dois partir** (I have to leave)
These are the **last words**
I'll ever speak
And they'll **set me free**
If my heart was still alive
I know it would surely break
And my memories left with you
There's nothing more to say
Moving on is a simple thing
What it leaves behind is hard
You know the **sleeping feel no more pain**
And the living are scarred
**À tout le monde** (To everybody)
**À tout les amis** (To all my friends)
**Je vous aime** (I love you)
**Je dois partir** (I have to leave)
These are the **last words**
I'll ever speak
And they'll **set me free**
So as you read this know my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
**Please smile, smile when you think about me**
My body's gone that's all
**À tout le monde** (To everybody)
**À tout les amis** (To all my friends)
**Je vous aime** (I love you)
**Je dois partir** (I have to leave)
These are the **last words**
I'll ever speak
And they'll **set me free**
