Je vole [English translation]

Dear parents, I leave

I love you, but I leave

You won't have children anymore, tonight

I'm not fleeing, I fly

Understand well, I fly

Without any smoke, without any alcohol I fly, I fly

It's thursday, it's 5:05 A.M,

I've ended up to prepare a little suitcase

And I walk slowly into the sleepy flat

I open the main door, holding on my breath,

And I walk on tiptoes

Like the evenings where I came back after midnight

In order that they do not wake up

Yesterday night, at the table,

I really thought my mother was suspecting something

She asked me if I was sick

Why I was so pale,

I said I was fine,

It's really clear, I think she has pretended to believe me

And my father has smiled.

Passing next to the car,

I felt something strange,

I thought it would be harder and more exhilarating

Like some kind of adventure, but less heart-breaking,

Oh, above all don't turn back, get away a little more

There is the station,

And after the station, there is the Atlantic Ocean,

And after the Atlantic Ocean...

It's kinda strange this sort of cage which blocks my chest

It almost prevents me to breathe

I'm wondering if, later on

My parents will think that I'm crying

Oh, above all don't turn back, don't turn eyes or head,

Don't look back,

Only see what I promise myself,

And why, and where, and how...

It's 6:55 A.M, and I went back to sleep in that train

Which goes away more and more

Oh, above all, never turn back... never !

Dear parents, I leave

I love you, but I leave

You won't have children anymore, tonight

I'm not fleeing, I fly

Understand well, I fly

Without any smoke, without any alcohol I fly, I fly
