Pas toi [English translation]

Etch the bark until bleeding,

Nail the doors down to lock yourself

And live in daydreams because of staying awake too much ;

Pray shadows and walking a lot.

May well do I keep telling myself it needs time,

May well do I keep write it black on white if

Whatever I do, wherever I am

Nothing erases you, I think about you.

Days go by as empty furrows,

In reason and lovelessly

My luck is fading away, the tide is turning

And only the lack of you stays— obstinately

May well do I keep telling myself it's like that now,

That without aging you can't forget :

Whatever I do, wherever I am

Nothing erases you, I think about you

And whatever do I learn, still I don't know

Why do I bleed and you don't?

There's no hatred, there's no king,

Nor God or chains we fight against

But what does it take, which strength,

Which weapon shatters disregard?

Oh, it's not fair, it shouldn't be written like that,

Feels like a slander, more than disdain

And whatever do I learn, still I don't know

Why do I bleed and you don't?
