Lyrics

Routes qui s'égarent ne m’ont portée nulle part.
Je lui avais fait confiance, il était ma puissance.
Oh ! Pourquoi, dis Mama, t’as le cœur gros?
Oh ! Pourquoi, dis Papa, tu m’tournes le dos?
Fallait m’le dire, fallait pas me laisser partir.
Fallait pas se moquer d’moi, j’n'étais pas prête pour ça.
Émotion sauvage me trouble et puis me glace.
Délire insouciant joue sur mon corps absent.
Oh ! Pourquoi, dis Mama, t’as le cœur gros?
Oh ! Pourquoi, dis Papa, tu m’tournes le dos?
Fallait m’le dire, fallait pas me laisser partir.
J’pouvais pas rester là, j’voulais pas faire comme toi.
Comme un vent de passage ne laisse que quelques traces
Humiliée dans le sang, je porte son enfant.
Oh ! Pourquoi, dis Mama, t’as le cœur gros?
Oh ! Pourquoi, dis Papa, tu m’tournes le dos?
Fallait m’le dire, fallait pas me laisser partir.
Je n’suis pas ce qu’on croit, je n’veux pas de vos lois.
Fallait pas se moquer d’moi, j’n'étais pas prête pour ça.

Lyrics translation

Roads that go astray have taken me nowhere.
I trusted him, he was my power.
Oh ! Why, Mama, are you having a big heart?
Oh ! Why, Dad, Are you turning your back on me?
You had to tell me, you didn't have to let me go.
You didn't have to make fun of me.I wasn't ready for this.
Wild emotion disturbs me and then ICE me.
Carefree delirium plays on my absent body.
Oh ! Why, Mama, are you having a big heart?
Oh ! Why, Dad, Are you turning your back on me?
You had to tell me, you didn't have to let me go.
I couldn't stay here, I didn't want to do like you.
As a passing wind leaves only a few traces
Humiliated in blood, I carry her child.
Oh ! Why, Mama, are you having a big heart?
Oh ! Why, Dad, Are you turning your back on me?
You had to tell me, you didn't have to let me go.
I'm not what we believe, I don't want your laws.
You didn't have to make fun of me.I wasn't ready for this.
