Se nourrir des années
Feeding on the years
Sculpter les opposés
Sculpting the opposites
Je t'embrasse je te hais
I kiss you, I hate you
Je me lasses tu me hais
I tire, you hate me
Et les figures imposaient
And the figures imposed themselves
Et ces figures s'imposaient
And these figures took hold
À moi
Over me
Vous étiez si nombreux
You were so many
À me faire vos aveux
To make your confessions to me
Vos sourires vénéneux
Your venomous smiles
Notre vie n'est qu'un jeu
Our life is just a game
Et les figures imposées
And the prescribed moves
Et les figures s'imposaient
And the figures were imposing
Vous vouliez m'encenser
You wanted to praise me
Vos éloges en papiers
Your praises on paper
En papiers
On paper
Et les figures imposaient
And the figures were imposing
Et ces figures s'imposaient
And these figures were imposing
À moi
On me
