Fermons Les Yeux Lyrics in English Kyo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fermons Les Yeux by Kyo from French to English.

What are these borders still

That can separate people

Like other prayers or other ways

But what always drives us

To raise so many barriers

Fear, honor or pride

Let's close our eyes

Let's close them if we want

To see beyond the face

But which mirror, then

That'll give us the power

To see ourselves, basically

Just as we are

But what will help us

To live differently

Gestures, words or time

Let's close our eyes

Let's close them if we want

To see beyond faces

Let's close our eyes

Let's close them just a bit

Let's open our hearts more

We'll have to end

All those lifeless looks

Do you finally hear the screams

That only want silence

Let's close our eyes

Let's close them if we want

To see beyond faces

Let's close our eyes

Let's close them just a bit

Let's open our hearts more

SONG MEANING

Kyo’s “Fermons Les Yeux” is an invitation to shut our eyes just long enough to truly see. The lyrics question the invisible borders that split people apart—fear, pride, ego—and wonder why we keep building them. By asking Quelles sont encore ces frontières ?, the song nudges us to look past labels and appearances, searching for a mirror that reflects who we really are beneath the surface.

Closing our eyes becomes a gentle rebellion: a brief pause that lets the heart, not the eyes, do the viewing. When sight is switched off, empathy switches on, and the chorus urges us to ouvrir nos cœurs davantage—to open our hearts wider. The message is clear: trade shallow glances for deeper understanding, let the noise fall silent, and end the “extinguished looks” that keep us apart. In just a few minutes, Kyo turns a simple sensory act into a hopeful roadmap for unity.
