Dans le noir [English translation]

In the bars, people have fun and forget themselves

And I, in the shadows, have found the will to live again

I keep to myself, confine my sorrows to the night

Tonight

There are nights like this when everything collapses

The nights like this where I switch off, I switch it all off

Go, go and love one another on the sly

In the end you will all fuck yourselves over.

If the kids tell off their mothers

It’s because their values are lost at the bottom of their glasses

Cocaine and cocktails are the “in” thing these days

So the youth call for fresh air

What is this world? What planet are we living on?

Who are these fathers who think its okay to blow

all of their salary in poker, in these shitty games

while watching their kids run to their doom

I am one of these overwhelmed kids, tired of life

To the left we sniff, to the right we pray

And here I stand, misunderstood

So tonight I’m sorry, I let go, yeah

In the bars, people have fun and forget themselves

And I, in the shadows, have found the will to live again

I keep to myself, confine my sorrows to the night

Tonight

Tonight, I don't feel like laughing

If I don’t do it, who will tell them?

Who, who, who is going to stop the demise of this country,

Sadistic and capitalistic?

Stop telling all of these young girls

That beauty is found in magazines.

Bulimia here, anorexia there,

all because the modeling world is exciting.

Stop castrating us from morning til night

We dream to break away from your hopes

You who need Roselmack and Obama

to finally respect blacks

What is this world? What planet are we living on?

Where are the role models? Where are the reference points?

When I see young people insult their fathers

Then I know that there is nothing much I can do here anymore because

In the bars, people have fun and forget themselves

And I, in the shadows, have found the will to live again

I keep to myself, confine my sorrows to the night

Tonight

In the bars, people have fun and forget themselves

And I, in the shadows, have found my smile again

So I stay away to avoid suffering

In the shadows

In the bars, people have fun and forget themselves

And I, in the shadows, have found the will to live again

I keep to myself, confine my sorrows to the night

Tonight
