Mourir sur scène [English translation]

Come,

But do not come when I’m alone

When the curtain falls one day

I want it to fall behind me

Come,

But do not come when I’m alone

As I chose everything in my life

I want to choose my death as well

There are those who want

To die on a rainy day

And others in the sunlight

There are those who want

To die alone in bed

Peaceful in their sleep

I want to die on the stage

In the spotlight

Yes, I want to die on the stage

My heart open, in full colour

To die without any sorrow

At our last rendezvous

I want to die on the stage

Singing until the very end.

Come,

But do not come when I’m alone

We already know each other

We saw each other up close, remember?

Come,

But do not come when I’m alone

You should pick a gala evening

If you want to dance with me

My life has been scorched

Exposed to too much light

I cannot leave while in the shade

I want to die

Bombarded by lasers

In front of a full house

I want to die on the stage

In the spotlight

Yes, I want to die on the stage

My heart open, in full colour

To die without any sorrow

At out last meeting

I want to die on the stage

Singing until the very end

To die without any sorrow

A well-orchestrated death

I want to die on the stage

That’s where I was born
