Je danse [English translation]

I’m having some trouble

Finding sleep

When I picture you

In the moons and the stars

So I put on a jacket

And down a glass of vodka

So what if I stink

Of fear and tobacco

I dance till I laugh

I pray for the day never to return

I’m actually less scared

Of vampires than of memories of you

I dance till I laugh

At night life is less worse

I’m actually less scared

Of vampires than of memories of you

I go back alone to the centre

Of town and of the universe

I go around in circles

In the bellies of this world

Revolving the wrong way around (hey!)

Drunk now, I’m on the floor

And write my love pangs by the ear

Of a choir member in a hit song in bad taste

In bad taste

I dance till I laugh

I pray for the day never to return

I’m actually less scared

Of vampires than of memories of you

Nobody gives a damn about my motives

The night is even less perplexed

In the cradle of budding fames

Dreams are needed, not hope

Nobody gives a fig about my motives

The night is even less perplexed

Wolves have no name for me

They pee around and then leave

For all that, we’re still one step ahead

When we know a few dance steps

I feel like turning fortune around

And make my trance partners twirl, but

It won’t be tonight that some parts

Will replace beauty or power

And I go back home

And my bathtub is a fizzy

And on TV there’s Africa

And I miss you

And the music in my ear turns to panic

Even tonight I bore a grudge against you

Even tonight I disappointed myself

I played on the edge hoping to fall from the sky

But I still miss you, I miss you

I dance till I laugh

I pray for the day never to return

I’m actually less scared

Of vampires than of my memories of you
