A force de tirer sur le fil
By dint of shooting on the thread
On n'en voyait plus trop la fin
We couldn't see the end too much
Mais une fin pleine de style
But an end full of style
Une fin qui ne demande rien
An end that does not ask for anything
Nous la cherchâmes corps et âmes
We looked for her body and souls
Nous nous perdîmes à l'imparfait
We lost ourselves in the imperfect
On rembobine le fil du temps
We rewind the wire
On se déroule jusqu'au firmament
We take place to the firmament
On embobine les étoiles
We swing the stars
Et on s'abîme sur la toile
And we damage the canvas
Au fond la fin vient en chantant
Basically the end comes by singing
Au fond la fin ne nous dit rien
Basically the end does not tell us anything
La force du fil de la mémoire
The strength of the memory thread
Est aussi forte de toi à moi
Is also strong from you to me
Qu'un bout de bras en désespoir
Than an end of arm in despair
Qui toque à ta porte quand tout s'en va
Who toys at your door when everything goes away
Nous réfléchîmes à deux fois
We thought twice
Nous retrouvâmes un fil d'antan
We found a thread of yesteryear
On aimerait quand même voir la fin
We would still like to see the end
De ce fil qui tire sur la mémoire
From this thread that pulls on memory
Pour que tous les morts se remémorent
So that all the dead remember
L'illusion veine de nos destins
The vein illusion of our destinies
Nous écrivîmes ces derniers mots
We wrote these last words
Et nous perdîmes le fil du sens
And we lost the thread of meaning
Nous nous bornâmes à continuer
We confined ourselves to continuing
Une illusion plus que parfaite
A more than perfect illusion
Au fond les mots viennent en chantant
Basically the words come by singing
Au fond les mots ne disent rien
Basically the words say nothing
Nous nous bornâmes à continuer
We confined ourselves to continuing
Une illusion plus que parfaite
A more than perfect illusion
Au fond les mots viennent en chantant
Basically the words come by singing
Au fond les mots ne disent rien
Basically the words say nothing
Nous décidâmes à l'imparfaite
We decided to the imperfect
D'arrêter là cette sornette
To stop this sornette there
