These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Seul, seul, seul, seul
Alone, alone, alone, alone
C'est une odeur d'essence, une palpitation
It's a smell of gasoline, a palpitation
C'est une foule immense pleine de gens sans prénom
It's a huge crowd full of people without a name
C'est une clef posée au milieu des cartons
It's a key placed in the middle of the boxes
Un mot juste à côté qui te demande 'pardon'
A word next door that asks you 'forgiveness'
Il te prend par la main, pose ses ongles sur tes paumes
He takes you by the hand, puts his nails on your palms
Dors sur ton oreiller, éteins ton téléphone
Sleep on your pillow, turn off your phone
Elle publie à ta place des moments de bonheur
She publishes moments of happiness in your place
Pour qu't'aies l'air en surface mais qu'tu crèves à l'intérieur
So you can look on the surface but die inside
A l'intérieur
Inside
Seul, seul, seul, seul
Alone, alone, alone, alone
Seul, seul, seul, seul
Alone, alone, alone, alone
Elle prend une place à table les jours d'anniversaire
She takes a seat at the table on birthday days
Elle souffle tes bougies et descend tous les verres
She blows out your candles and goes down all the glasses
Elle vient même la nuit quand tu crois qu'elle s'endort
She even comes at night when you think she falls asleep
C'est contre elle que tu cries, elle est ton seul corps à corps
You're yelling at her, she's your only melee
C'est l'absence, l'absence, l'absence
It is the absence, the absence, the absence
C'est l'absence
It's the absence
Elle s'envole grâce à vous
It flies away thanks to you
Elle s'envole grâce à vous
It flies away thanks to you
Elle s'envole grâce à vous
It flies away thanks to you
