Lyrics
Explosions shake the city
Explosions cause upheaval in the city.
I thought it was part of the show
The chaos initially seemed like part of an entertainment display or performance.
A craven is screaming prayers
A cowardly person is fervently praying.
In a tongue that I don't know
They're praying in a language unknown to the speaker.
Paris lights are winking out
Lights in Paris are gradually disappearing.
I can hear the city scream
The city feels alive and distressed, emitting a sense of anguish.
While the faithful are rejoicing
Amid tragedy, the faithful individuals are finding solace or happiness.
In the sound of tragedy
The tragedy's noise becomes a source of comfort for some.
Find me one reason worth this hate
The speaker seeks justification for the hate prevailing in the situation.
One reason worth this endless violence
They seek a reason for the continuous violence stemming from hate.
Find me one reason worth this hate
Again, the speaker demands a reason for the hate surrounding them.
Cause I have 130 reasons to change
The speaker has 130 reasons compelling them to change the situation.
This stage should be a temple
The stage, typically a place of unity, should allow everyone to express themselves.
Where anyone can sing
However, despite this potential unity, people are divided.
Yet we are one divided
Conflicts are arising due to differences in beliefs.
Waging war over beliefs
Wars are waged based on these conflicting beliefs.
Paris lights are winking out
Continuation of the description of lights fading in Paris.
I can feel the city scream
The distress of the city intensifies and becomes palpable.
While the faithful are rejoicing
Similar to earlier, amidst tragedy, some find solace or happiness.
In the sound of tragedy
The noise or chaos of the tragedy brings comfort to certain individuals.
Find me one reason worth this hate
The speaker still demands a reason for the hate they're witnessing.
One reason worth this endless violence
They want to understand the violence that seems never-ending due to hate.
Find me one reason worth this hate
Reiteration of the demand for a reason for the surrounding hate.
Cause I have 130 reasons to change
Having 130 compelling reasons to change the current circumstances.
130 reasons to change
Repeated assertion of having 130 reasons to initiate change.
Parents' cries are ringing out
Parents' sorrowful cries are echoing.
While their sons and daughters bleed
Children, sons, and daughters, are suffering injuries.
And the faithful are rejoicing
Despite this tragedy, certain individuals find comfort or happiness.
In the sound of tragedy
The noise or turmoil of tragedy brings solace to specific individuals.
