I doubt
And I think I listen
Way too much to my past
I just want to
Wake up
And everything
I see disgusts me
I try to move on
I just want to
Wake up
Why every time
I close my eyes
All I see
Is that we were unhappy
tell me
Why every time
I close my eyes
All I feel
Is anger and fire
I don't care
It's no excuse
Everything you could say
What made you lie
I don't care
I don't care if you're proud
I've seen you do it too much
I've suffered too much
I don't want your apologies
I erase
The pieces from before
I let time pass
And all I have left when
I fall asleep
I don't look
Back too much anymore
I try to free myself
From all that's left of
What puts me to sleep
Why every time
I close my eyes
All I see
Is that we were unhappy
tell me
Why every time
I close my eyes
All I feel
Is anger and fire
I don't care
It's no excuse
Everything you could say
What made you lie
I don't care
I don't care if you're proud
I've seen you do it too much
I've suffered too much
I don't want your apologies
I don't know
I don't know anymore
I know nothing
I don't know
Why I still write
About you
I don't know, not anymore
I don't care
It's no excuse
Everything you could say
What made you lie
I don't care
I don't care if you're proud
I've seen you do it too much
I've suffered too much
I don't want your apologies
I've seen you do it too much
I've suffered too much
I don't want your apologies
I've seen you do it too much
I've suffered too much
I don't want your apologies anymore
I don't care
I don't want your apologies anymore

dégoûtedisgusts me

Dégoûte comes from the verb dégoûter, meaning 'to disgust' or 'to sicken'. It's a strong emotional word that conveys a powerful sense of aversion.

In the song, Louane sings, "Tout c'que j'vois me dégoûte" (Everything I see disgusts me). This word immediately grabs attention because it expresses a raw and intense feeling, hinting at the depth of her pain and disillusionment with a past relationship. It's not a word you hear in every pop song, making it memorable and impactful.

"Les Excuses" is Louane singing about the moment she stops accepting apologies from someone who has hurt her over and over. Every time she closes her eyes she still sees how unhappy they made her, and she is done pretending an explanation could fix that.

She admits she is still stuck on the past and can't quite shake it off, but she draws a hard line: whatever the other person could say to justify their lies, it doesn't matter anymore. She has watched them do the same thing too many times, and she has suffered enough.

By the end she is not even asking why she keeps thinking about this person. She just repeats that she doesn't want their apologies, not now and not ever again.
