Ma valse [English translation]

Look at me smiling

Like a rose into the wind

Letting my frenzy floating

Through a burning desire

To be alive and queen

In my innocent little world

Made of light rain

Dissolving on my field

Look at me diying

From love that awaits me

Its arms and sighs

Warm my blood up

The foam under my foot

Like a silk carpet,

A pedestal to my bed,

To give up sometimes

Look at me suffering

When I don't like myself anymore

Oh, how I'm scared to been seen

And to lay myself bare

When I'm vulnerable

And nobody hears me

The greatness of horror

Rumbling and mistaken

Look at this huge emptiness,

This gentle unknown

Whom I'd like to succumb to

And don't wait for

A scaring silence

Which can't surprise anymore

'Cause I knew it a thousand times,

The flavour of its ashes

Wearing my heart on my sleeve

Like a stolen present

I'd like to be a mother

To comfort myself better

To give myself a shelter,

Attentiveness and suspended sentence

To give me softness

To give me respite

How to give oneself

This love we await for

Which is never enough

And which we doesn't know how to handle

Which we, sometimes, catch our heart smiling at,

We close it up straight away

Fearing we may drown

And then, one evening, one day,

We dare to accept it,

This pearl, this sesame,

We tried hard to hide

Into the oblivion

By the pier

Gazing at the ginger sky

Of our erased dreams

It's the end looming

Like a anger into the stomach

This uncatchable ardour

Screaming and haunting us

Like a weary old ghost

(Fearing) to be recognized

To be listened to without fear

To be understood

Look a me fighting

Against nothing, against everything

Prisoner of my own cage

I built bit by bit

Telling my story

Not to forget it

It squeezes my throat

My liberty

I've had enough now

Enough to be a victim

Of this foolish fear

Singing its own anthem

I carry in my inner self

Like a flag floated

By the elders breeze

Into the emptiness tree

I finish the story

I let the wind go

I give it hope

And the breath of former times

I give to Earth

These false believes

We taught me so well

Those are so badly created

If I wanna live in this world

My life my own way

I accept to live my own law

Unite my soul and my reason

I let go

I dare to life

I let go

And I dare to live
