Assez justes pour expliquer

J'fais pu confiance aux mots depuis que j'ai appris à lire
I've been able to trust words since I learned to read
Ils m'ont montré le passé pour dissoudre l'avenir

Et tous s'abreuvent en cœur aux mêmes journaux
And everyone drinks from the same newspapers
Des mêmes sites, des mêmes gens qui se cachent
Same sites, same people hiding
Derrières les mots
Behind the words
Plus destructeurs que les armes

Ils m'ont offert l'espoir, pour m'arracher la vie
