Réfractaire [English translation]

Everything can begin or end

Drunk and serene, I forget the bad

When I’m set ablaze with stars

And I kiss the one despite the fact that she’s superficial

She enables me to feel young again

Fortunately, my heart beats in a solemn way

No, it sings not a single hymn

It remains resistant

Resistant

I can end it or begin it again

The best, the worst come to repeat themselves

Mise en abyme, absurd and sublime

Makes of the discord a redundancy

That is completely reassuring

And I spy on myself in a mirror

To be certain that everything is in it’s place

Fortunately, my heart beats in a solemn way

No, it sings not a single hymn

It remains resistant

Resistant

I fall back step by step and I don’t age

I fall back step by step and I don’t age
