La Question [English translation]

I don't know who you may be, I don't know who you wish to be

I'm still trying to get to know you and your silence bothers mine

I don't know where the lies come from, is it from your voice that shuts?

The world into which I dive against my will is like a terrifying tunnel

From your distance to mine, we get lost way too often

And striving to understand you is like chasing the wind

I don't know why I stay in a sea that makes me drown

I don't know why I stay in air that will get me choked

You're the blood of my wound, you're the fire of my burns

You're my question without an answer, my mute cry and my silence.
