Je prends sur moi [English translation]

Paris under a gray sky, dark worries

Fallen into the arms of an autumn night

That asks itself if I would be the same

When I would have finished with it, with my sorrow,

To change the set would tell me where I am

I would feel better also

To change the air, a wind of comfort

Would allow me to see there more clearly

The strength to remake myself

I take on myself

The days when nothing happens

When the impression is that of a beating heart

Without noise, without life, without voice

I take on myself

The days when nothing happens

And to say that one has only one life ahead of one

Without cost, without law

I take on myself

And too bad if sometimes I run away

In the bad evening

That put makeup on my sorrows

Under a smile that will not leave me

That if

It is no trouble any more

To search for lying to oneself

It is necessary to redouble the efforts to show them

Who I am, to go to the end of my longings

To be the one who always fights herself more strongly

To defend my ideals at any cost

That is the story of my life

I take on myself

The days when nothing happens

When the impression is that of a beating heart

Without noise, without life, without voice

I take on myself

The days when nothing happens

And to say that one has only one life ahead of one

Without cost, without law

I take on myself
