Tu vas me quitter [English translation]

I tatooed my skin with a 'loving you' ink

I tatooed the lie to hide the truth

Ripped wings off birds to keep you

Tracked high tides to come get you

You're leaving me, I know it, you're leaving, I know it

And on the walls of my distress, my desire for you stays carved in

You're leaving me, I know it, you're leaving, I know it

But you should understand that your farewell runs in my veins

I confessed my fault on glossy paper

Guilty in a way to be wounded by you

I tried to chase the other away, under the wind of my secrets

But you use without mistake love at past tense

Misjudged by your laws, without appeal or regrets

I learned under your fingers the pain of the condemned

You're leaving me, I know it, you're leaving, I know it

And on the walls of my distress, my desire for you stays carved in

You're leaving me, I know it, you're leaving, I know it

But you should understand that your farewell runs in my veins

You're leaving me, I know it

You're leaving, I know it

But you should understand that your farewell runs in my veins

You're leaving me, I know it

You're leaving me, I know it
