Fais Le Vide Lyrics in English Bilal Hassani

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fais Le Vide by Bilal Hassani from French to English.
World's upside down, we’re moving at top speed
Headfirst, without thinking of looking back
No time to have time, we don’t sleep at night anymore
Feels like we’re running in slow motion
We gotta speed up, stop living halfway
What’ve we got to lose, everything’s only just begun
Heads full of dreams that still slip through our fingers
We walk on glass, we think of tomorrow, yesterday, we forget
Look at yourself
Hold your head up, don’t let yourself be dragged down
Forget where you’re from, where you’re going
Around you
Everything’s too fast, you don’t even know where you’re going anymore
You’re stuck, you’re pacing
Clear your mind, no, don’t sleep
Clear your mind, do it like that
Middle finger up, a breath of air
You race as if there’s only you
Clear your mind, don’t listen to them
Those who talk, who don’t move forward
Close your eyes and dance raising your finger
Wouh-ouh wouh-ouh
Wouh-ouh woah-oh-oh
Wouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh
Wouh-ouh wouh-ouh
Wouh-ouh woah-oh-oh
Wouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh
Stuck in a whirlwind, we don’t know where to go anymore
We need action, not a fate all mapped out
I’ll be, I was, whatever, I am so I try
To get out of the dead end, I don’t wanna play hide-and-seek anymore
Look at yourself
Hold your head up, don’t let yourself be dragged down
Forget where you’re from, where you’re going
Around you
Everything’s too fast, you don’t even know where you’re going anymore
You’re stuck, you’re pacing
Clear your mind, no, don’t sleep
Clear your mind, do it like that
Middle finger up, a breath of air
You race as if there’s only you
Clear your mind, don’t listen to them
Those who talk, who don’t move forward
Close your eyes and dance raising your finger
Wouh-ouh wouh-ouh
Wouh-ouh woah-oh-oh
Wouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh
Wouh-ouh wouh-ouh
Wouh-ouh woah-oh-oh
Wouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh
Clear your mind
Do it fast, do it fast
Clear your mind
Do it fast, do it fast
Clear your mind
Do it fast, do it fast
Clear your mind, clear your mind, clear your mind
Clear your mind, no, don’t
Clear your mind, no, don’t sleep
Clear your mind, do it like that
Middle finger up, a breath of air
You race as if there’s only you
Clear your mind, don’t listen to them
Those who talk, who don’t move forward
Close your eyes and dance raising your finger
Wouh-ouh wouh-ouh You race as if there’s only you
Wouh-ouh woah-oh-oh If there were only you
Wouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh As if there’s only you
Wouh-ouh wouh-ouh You race as if there’s only you
Wouh-ouh woah-oh-oh If there were only you
Wouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh-ouh

SONG MEANING

Fais le vide feels like hitting the pause button on a video that is stuck on fast-forward. Bilal Hassani paints a picture of life in overdrive, where we plunge into the future without a glance behind us and end up running in slow motion while everything else blurs past. Dreams slip through our fingers, we tiptoe over broken glass, and nights stretch on without sleep—yet the song reminds us that living only halfway is not enough.

The chorus bursts in like fresh oxygen: Fais le vide ! Empty your mind, lift your head high, flash a rebellious middle finger to doubt, and breathe deeply. Tune out the voices that stand still, shut your eyes, and dance as though the world is yours alone. This electro-pop anthem is a sparkling pep talk, urging us to break from the scripted path, claim the present moment, and stride boldly toward the life we really want.
