Lyrics
Si on t’avait dit
Que pour payer l’addition, faudrait toute une vie
Que le goût de l’affliction serait infini
Qu’en fourrant le doigt là-dedans t’y mettrais aussi
Ton sourire et tes dents
Si on t’avait dit
Que tu devrais chercher la où rien n’est écrit
Qu’une fois tombé dans c’trou la porte de sortie
Est aussi dure à trouver que dans un incendie
La tête enfumée
Si on t’avait dit
Que ça cramerait tout
Plus rien à croquer, ne plus sentir de goût
Rien à inventer juste tenir debout
On peut rire de tout mais comment guérir de tout
Si on t’avait dit
Qu’il faudrait réapprendre l’acte et l’envie
Croire qu’au milieu des cendres il y a du sursis
Que juste avant de te rendre un corps ou un cri
Peut encore te surprendre
Si on t’avait dit
Que c’est la nature de l’homme de se croire permis
De s’autoriser en somme ce qu’il s’interdit
Ça n’aurait rien changé non, les choses on les vit
Ou on passe à côté
Ce que je me dis
Ce que je tire comme leçon quand j’y réfléchis
C’est que le goût de l’addiction est un bon ami
Et que personne n’apprivoise les grands incendies
Partent tous en fumée
Lyrics translation
If someone had told you
That to pay the bill, it would take a lifetime
That the taste of affliction would be infinite
That sticking your finger in there would put you in there too
Your smile and your teeth
If someone had told you
That you should look for the one where nothing is written
That once fell into that hole the exit door
Is as hard to find as in a fire
The smoky head
If someone had told you
That it would burn everything
Nothing to chew, no more taste
Nothing to invent just stand up
We can laugh at everything but how to cure everything
If someone had told you
That it would be necessary to re-learn the act and envy
Believe that in the midst of the Ashes there is a reprieve
That just before I give you a body or a scream
Can still surprise you
If someone had told you
That it is the nature of man to believe himself allowed
To allow himself in short what he forbids himself
It wouldn't have changed anything. no, we're living things.
Or we pass by
What I say to myself
What I learn as a lesson when I think about it
Is that the taste of addiction is a good friend
And let no one tame the big fires
They all go up in smoke
