Passive like

Hippolytus

I'll stride across your mountains, your reefs

I'll mimic your fleeing steps

Even if I'll never know it

Always short of words

I never finish any of me

Lay wind on the canvas

It'll stay white from you

I'm no longer enough

To fend off the mistral

I'm no longer enough

To count the stars

Come back

Without writing me anything

I'll cover my eyes

With the mist of happy people

With the time of farewells

My love

Farewells

Forever

I still wanna scream your name

To deafen my days

The time of farewells

My love

Farewells

Forever

I wanna drag everywhere

My heart

That breaks along its path

To live like two scarecrows

Facing each other

It's a constant battle

In our cracks

And rusts the scrap iron

That forges my anxieties

And burns all the straw

Under my heart that freezes

I imagine effects

That'd make me seem

A bit real

I don't have the same summer ends

Since dawn stopped

And rusts the scrap iron

That forges my anxieties

And burns all the straw

From my fading bed

Come back

Without writing me anything

I'll cover my eyes

With the mist of happy people

With the time of farewells

My love

Farewells, forever

I still wanna scream your name

To deafen my days

The time of farewells

My love

Farewells

Forever

I wanna drag everywhere

My heart

That breaks along its path

Go stitch your thread back

Run off to Italy

To treat your lack of madness

Go, live in slow motion

Film your memories

And don't come back to me

Farewells

My love

Farewells

Forever

I still wanna scream your name

To deafen my days

The time of farewells

My love

Farewells

Forever

I wanna drag everywhere

My heart

That breaks along its path

SONG MEANING

“Adieux” is a poetic farewell letter wrapped in sound. Nuit Incolore paints a windswept landscape where love has eroded, using vivid images of mistral winds, scarecrows facing off, and rusting metal to show how anxiety corrodes the heart. The singer wanders through mountains and reefs, desperately mimicking each fading footprint, yet always “à court de paroles” — short of words — to stop the inevitable goodbye. Every line feels like a cinematic scene: shouting a lover’s name to drown out the days, dragging a broken heart from place to place, and covering tear-filled eyes “with the mist of happy people.”

At its core, the song captures the uneasy mix of wanting someone to stay while urging them to leave for their own good. References to Hippolyte (the tragic Greek hero), the French mistral, and an imagined trip to Italy underline the clash between passionate devotion and cold reality. “Adieux” is both a lament and a liberation, inviting listeners to feel the sting of parting, then to exhale and accept that some stories end so others can begin.
