Carte blanche [English translation]

I’ve wanted that loneliness for so long

That I take pleasure in what I do

And you appear like the wind

That’s shaking my heart while taking me away

I should run, I should run away

But you anchor me so well here

Even though all the signs are pointing towards a future

That’s getting darker when you come up

And I may be dreaming, or even hoping

I know that I won’t change you

Your conquests stay between our sheets

And worn out by our breaths taken

We will never have carte blanche

And I’m getting my revenge

On you, on them, but especially you

I counted the hours, the timeouts

Spent at night when I sleep

And when you finally come home, I hit

While you’re hiding your phone

I should run, I should run away

But you anchor me so well here

Even though all the signs are pointing towards a future

That’s getting darker when you come up

And I may be dreaming, or even hoping

I know that I won’t change you

Your conquests stay between our sheets

And worn out by our breaths taken

We will never have carte blanche

And I’m getting my revenge

On you, on them, but especially you
