Juste une idée

Je suis un voyageur vrai
qui n'a rien vu du monde.
Ma maison se trouve partout 
ma maison n'existe plus.
 
Je ne suis pas une idéaliste                                
car je déteste toutes vos idées
idées bruyantes, idées vides
il n'y a qu’une qui me plaît.
 
J'attendrai ta main demain
la main qui me souvient d'hier
du moment, et pour toujours
c'est l'idée qui me resserre.

We know what we know

Your pretty eyes
must know the way
I tell myself.
You wander each day 
from mountain to lake
seeking wonders
feeling nothing
but a mild breeze on your hair.
There must be more,
you can't help yourself
so you run and sweat out
all the toxins away.
But you can't sweat out the one,
can you.
You laugh and kiss hard,
I'm proud of you.
Do they even know
why you cannot glow,
I remembered you could.
And I know what it means 
to be damned under the sun
no matter how hard you try
or what good you do.
Those men are always 
waiting for you
deep underground
to shut your truth.
Sweet stranger's eyes,
I was never with them.

Sea people

She can't swim in dirt
nor she can drink from the sea
stop waiting for the fish
to bring her to your knees.

And if she drowns like a rock
it wont happen while she sings
and God she sings so sweet
she never learnt to speak.

Lucky star

The clock is ticking
tick tick tock
baby screams
as the sun goes down
the house is empty 
it's already tomorrow
dinner is cold
I don't see any stars.
