Ça va aller [English translation]

I put on a smile to avoid crying.

Nobody cares about my troubles

anyway, I shouldn't delude myself.

I'm staying home, I'm locking myself up.

I d'ont want to pretend,

as if nothing happened.

I'm destroying myself, I'm loosing myself, shaking,

by keeping living in the past.1

And they say: "you'll be alright"

I'll be alright with time, so they say.

I'll be alright, but I was not really expecting this sorrow.

And they say: "you'll be alright"

You'll be alright

And they say: "you'll be alright"

You'll be alright

They act as if nothing happened,

as if they didn't see me.

I spend days crying alone,

knowing nobody will understand me

but my sorrow seems unsurmountable.

It scared off my will to live.

Deep down I know I'm pathetic,

I just wait for someone to set me free.

And they say: "you'll be alright"

I'll be alright with time, so they say.

I'll be alright, but I was not really expecting this sorrow.

And they say: "you'll be alright"

You'll be alright

And they say: "you'll be alright"

They say I'll be alright

My heart is sending SOSs

but nobody recieves them.

Noone understands my distress

and how lonely I feel without you.

1. the original is pretty convoluted too. Like an attempt at poetry falling flat on its face.
