I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way back, my way anymore

No I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way back, my way anymore

No, I..
No, I...

Forgive them that tear down my soul
Bless them that they might grow old
And free them so that they may know
That it's never too late

Of all the many times what would seem like a memory
I searched and found the way you used to lure me in
I found the ways, to know why I had to be
Mired in denial and so afraid

If we ever find this true
That we have the strength to choose
The freedom or the chains
We held together

tu peux tout savoir...sauf l'absence de toi
tu es parti avec elle
je suis là
je l'apprivoise doucement,fend
tendue je la prends
et je la berce contre moi
l'absence de toi

l'absence de toi: c'est mon corps qui craque,
mon corps qu'éclate
c'est la grenade qui craque
sous le soleil murit et qui mouille mes doigts...
c'est l'obus arrondit
que je caresse des heures contre mon ventre
puis je l'emmène, je la promène
ces rues que j'aime..connais pas...
qui connaissent ton ombre
toutes ces fenêtres de nuit qui connaissent ton ombre...
le pas de ton absence sur l'asphalte de nuit
toutes les fenêtres fermées, toutes les portes cochères
le long de l'écharpe qui glisse, le long des murs de..
l'absence de toi
des gouttes en ta force d'être
triturées dans ma poche...
je devrais la jeter dans le caniveau
qui dessine le contour de ma cage...

tu peux tout savoir...sauf l'absence de toi
tu es parti avec elle
je suis là
je l'apprivoise doucement,fend
tendue je la prends
et je la berce contre moi
l'absence de toi

maintenant tu es là, si proche...
l'absence de toi s'étale et s'étire
à quelques pas de ton corps qui dort..
à quelques pas de ma douleur qui chavire...
je sais
je t'aime...
je sais
je te quitte...
