Lyrics

Y a plein de mots d’amour et de souffrance dans ton cerveau,
Y a plein de mots qui restent enfouis tout au fond de ta peau
On t’a tellement appris à écouter
Que tu n’sais plus comment faire pour parler
Y a plein de villes, de néons qui passent devant ta vie
La poussière des camions qui filent sur les pistes d’Asie
On t’a tellement appris à n’pas bouger
Que tu n’sais plus comment faire pour marcher.
Y a plein de tendresse et d’amour dans tes bras,
Des caresses que t’inventes et que tu ne donnes pas
On t’a tellement appris à tout garder
Que tu n’sais plus comment faire pour aimer
Y a plein de refus dans ton corps et dans tes yeux,
Plein de révoltes qui voudraient dire «non j’suis pas heureux»
On t’a tellement appris à accepter
Que tu n’sais plus comment refuser.

Lyrics translation

There's a lot of words of love and suffering in your brain,
There are many words that remain buried deep inside your skin
We taught you so much to listen
That you don't know how to talk anymore
There are many cities, neon lights that pass before your life
The dust of trucks spinning on the tracks of Asia
We taught you so much not to move
That you don't know how to walk anymore.
There's plenty of tenderness and love in your arms,
Caresses that you invent and that you do not give
We taught you so much to keep everything
That you don't know how to love anymore
There's a lot of refusal in your body and in your eyes,
Full of revolts that would say " No I'm not happy»
We've taught you so much to accept
That you don't know how to refuse anymore.
