Une chanson brisée [English translation]

Your head resting on my heart

You looked up at me

And out loud you raised a question to a debate

Then you lift high up your confession full of emotion

You assume I have to write a song about you

Then I took a moment to recollect

The times when you had rather abandoned me

In social gatherings, smoking a firecracker1

Important appointments to which you didn't show up

But what does it matter, you love me, yes

That justifies all your neglects

But what does it matter, time plays

A song about my open wounds

You know I've had more than enough

You're an idiot and you didn't understand

That I would sooner leave you

You deserve no more than a broken song, I'm sorry

I've long thought about the stages to overcome

To assure others that we had a future

My friends were worried that they'd see us together again

Because they knew your ex waited for you in her bedroom

But what does it matter, you love me, yes

That justifies all your neglects

But what does it matter, time plays

A song about my open wounds

You know I've had more than enough

You're an idiot and you didn't understand

That I would sooner leave you

You deserve no more than a broken song, I'm sorry
