Compliquée [English translation]

Please let me go on following my childhood dream

No I don't want to go to that world of adults

Tell me why I'm so complicated

I know I have every reason to feel good

Happiness is just within my arm's reach

Taken hostage by my past

I keep staring at details

Someone, tell me why it hurts so much

Feeling that I lived too much

And that I'm so weak against life

Always fighting, wondering against whom

I'm already so tired that I can't even get back to sleep

My innonence has cleared out. Why isn't anything the same anymore ?

Please let me go on following my childhood dream

No I don't want to go to that world of adults

I want someone who can understand me

Someone who can be there every day

So as to kill the me who often feels heavy-hearted

I believed in soul sister so much

That then I took the bait

Maybe I left my heart, but I didn't lose my mind

Today my joie de vivre is all these people who believe in me

So I keep smiling through and I fight because I'm confident

I know I'll find peace in this life or in the another one

Meanwhile I want to sing, sing these few notes

Please let me go on following my childhood dream

No I don't want to go to that world of adults

The more I progress, the more complicated it all gets

This adult life doesn't have anything magical anymore

I just want to find the good old days' innocence and naivete again

Too much hatred

Too much sorrow

Too many tears

Too many tragedies

May God preserve and protect me from the evil surrounding me

Please let me go on following my childhood dream

No I don't want to go to that world of adults
