Souffle saccadé
Gasping breath
Voilà qui laisse deviner
This gives a hint
Que tout se décide cide cide
That everything is decided, decided, decided
Tout se décide cide cide
Everything is decided, decided, decided
Maquillé comme à la craie
Made up like chalk
Tout détonne et tout me plaît
Everything clashes and I love it all
Les mains sont livides vide vide vide
Hands are pale, empty, empty, empty
Mains sont livides vide vide vide
Hands are pale, empty, empty, empty
Seul deux de tes poignées est tatoué
Only two of your wrists are tattooed
Défiguré par ta manche
Disfigured by your sleeve
Le lion ne sourit qu'à moitié
The lion only smiles halfway
À mes solitudes immenses
To my vast solitudes
Ton visage ne sera jamais entier
Your face will never be whole
Comme tu regardes au dehors
As you gaze outside
J'emporte un portrait dévoré
I carry a devoured portrait
Douleur destin bord à bord
Pain, destiny, side by side
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ouh ouh
Ouh ouh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ouh ouh
Ouh ouh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
La belle attitude
The beautiful attitude
Que l'impatience comme certitude
That impatience as certainty
Collé à trois fils fils fils
Stuck to three wires wires wires
Collé à trois fils fils fils
Stuck to three wires wires wires
Tu seras j'espère fidèle aux violences qui opèrent
I hope you'll be true to the violence that operates
Dès que tu respires pires pires
As soon as you breathe worse worse
Que tu respires pires pires
That you breathe worse worse
D'ordinaire cette ville n'offre rien
Usually this city offers nothing
Qu'une poignée d'odeurs tenaces
But a handful of stubborn scents
Que cette ville est morte
How dead this city is
Je sais bien toi seul garde de l'audace
I know well, only you hold some courage
Il faudrait que tu la portes loin
You should take it far away
Alors que d'autres renoncent
While others give up
Je descends deux enfers plus loin
I descend two hells further down
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
So that the storm announces itself
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ouh ouh
Ouh ouh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ouh ouh
Ouh ouh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
So that the storm announces itself
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
So that the storm announces itself
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
So that the storm announces itself
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
To let the storm reveal itself
We are so lonely
We are so lonely
In this part of town (Pour que l'orage s'annonce)
In this part of town (To let the storm reveal itself)
(Pour que l'orage s'annonce) We are so lonely
(To let the storm reveal itself) We are so lonely
(Pour que l'orage s'annonce) We are so lonely
(To let the storm reveal itself) We are so lonely
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
To let the storm reveal itself
