Le Pont Marie Lyrics in English Feu! Chatterton

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Pont Marie by Feu! Chatterton from French to English.
J'ai joué
I played
Nos cœurs au ball-trap Mais
Our hearts at clay pigeon shooting But
Ne crains rien
Fear not
S'ils partent en fumée
If they go up in smoke
Elle est rose
It is pink
Debout et
Standing and
Nus sur le parapet
Naked on the parapet
Nous crions
We shout
Que cette fin-là
That this end
Est heureuse
Is happy
Petite, couchons-nous volages
Little one, let's lie down fickle
Dans le lit du fleuve
In the river's bed
Celui du mariage est plein
The marriage bed is full
D'acariens
Of mites
Que dis-tu de prendre le large
What do you say to setting sail
Avant qu'il ne pleuve
Before it rains
Sur nos amours?
On our love?
Ne crains rien
Fear not
Oui, frappe, frappe vite
Yes, strike, strike quickly
Avec ton couteau court
With your short knife
En mon cœur fidèle!
In my faithful heart!
Puissions-nous partir maintenant
May we leave now
Que tout autour
That all around
Est immobile et que tu es belle
Is still and you are beautiful
Déboutés
Dismissed
Par les forces et attrape
By the forces and catch
De l'ordre Nous rions
Of order We laugh
On ne plongera pas cette fois
We won't dive this time
Dans l'eau de rose
Into rose water
Debout et
Standing and
Nus sur le parapet
Naked on the parapet
Du pont Nous crions
Of the bridge We shout
Que cette fin-là
That this end
Aussi est heureuse
Is also happy
Nos tout petits jeux sont légers
Our little games are light
Mais légers et graves
But light and serious
Comme l'ange ou le Zeppelin
Like the angel or the Zeppelin
Quand il vient
When it comes
Jure-moi qu'importe le danger
Swear to me no matter the danger
Que même si l'on crève
That even if we die
Tes sanglots seront toujours
Your sobs will always be
Reptiliens
Reptilian
Et frappe, frappe vite
And strike, strike quickly
Avec ton couteau court
With your short knife
En mon cœur fidèle!
In my faithful heart!
Puissions-nous partir maintenant
May we leave now
Que tout autour
That all around
Est immobile et que tu es belle
Is still and you are beautiful
Que dis-tu
What do you say
Que dis-tu
What do you say
De prendre le large
To setting sail
De prendre le large
To setting sail
De prendre le large?
To setting sail?
Que dis-tu
What do you say
Si tout doit sauter
If everything must blow up
Que dis-tu
What do you say
Soyons les premiers
Let's be the first
De prendre le large
To set sail
Si tout doit sauter
If everything must blow up
De prendre le large
To set sail
Soyons les premiers
Let's be the first
De prendre le large?
To set sail?
Que dis-tu
What do you say
Si tout doit sauter
If everything must blow up
Que dis-tu
What do you say
Soyons les premiers
Let's be the first
De prendre le large
To set sail
Si tout doit sauter
If everything must blow up
De prendre le large
To set sail
Soyons les premiers
Let's be the first
À prendre le large?
To set sail?
