En cendres [English translation]

I'm just a figure with uncertain outlines

With a gloomy gaze a tiny bit haughty

I blindly go forward and I'm in a bad mood

A room without a window with a view of my feet

I'm hard-of-hearing due to misunderstandings

And these déjà-vus make me mean

I don't smoke anymore but I leave in ashes

How much longer do I have to wait?

I often hear him murmur at night

Taking the silence of the ruined walls as a witness

He promises them beauty but he feels ugly

Next to her photo on the bedside table

I'm hard-of-hearing due to misunderstandings

And these déjà-vus make me mean

I don't smoke anymore but I leave in ashes

How much longer do I have to wait?

I don't smoke anymore but I leave in ashes
