Drapeau blanc [English translation]

How can I write to you that the days are long?

I admire the sky that extends to shade

Writing to you means goodbye, once and for all

We soothed each other, enchanted each other, threw each other from side to side

To please me, to please you, I deluded you with trips

To calm you down, and with golden edges

I abdicate, I give up, I even burned your white flag

As long as notes resonate, I swear we can stop time

And never leave me alone

Never leave me alone

Let’s not leave each other alone with time

Silence after silence that we kept for confrontations

That we used to have, that we drew beyond all reason

To run away from these dividing walls

Whereas we lose each other on these invalid paths

These moments that we waste by building up the void

Out of embraces which are more than what is reasonable

I abdicate, I give up, I even burned your white flag

As long as notes resonate, I swear we can stop time

And never leave me alone

Never leave me alone

Let’s not leave each other alone with time
