Ceux qui sont en laisse [English translation]

You wanted an average person and I couldn't be one

You wanted the universe and I had nothing but me

You wanted silence when I was nothing but music

That we march parallel when I just went aslope

You wanted rivers in the middle of the desert

You wantet to travel, I was sedentary

That I write songs which put a smile on my face

It's not my fault, I have nothing but tears to offer them

And rain areas as the unique empire

That when I'm gone another romantic

May read my poems who will recognise himself in me

And without doubt he will say to himself: "Oh it's beautiful how he loves her!"

But that he knows that I never loved anyone but myself

That in bed just like in your heart egoism is the mother

Of generosity

That women may forgive me not to be made for them

That I'm like a cloud looking for its sky

That I'm like a ship always in distress

And this desire to flee of those who are bound

Forgive me all of you who are holding hands

You who believe that together you'll rather forge ahead

You who believe that the other one will save your skin

While ripping your soul into pieces

Whether in love your the greatest of all warriors

Or the sad sheep looking for its shepherd

We all end up under the earth looking for the pieces

At the edge of the abyss, two steps from the final jump

Two steps from our tomb
