Pub Royal [English translation]

She wanted to make peace with her long history

She bought a ticket to a remote location

It said that it is beautiful,

The aurora borealis

In the Chibougamau sky

Nothing to do with Montreal

She found a real job

As a waitress at the Pub Royal

She bought a beautiful dress

It doesn't hurt to be cute

To all the morning when the sun

Came up at the head of the lake

She thanked a patch of sky

Her life was still intact

In the chaos, the clutter

She found a northern corner

For quietly restarting her life

Finally blend in with the scenery

More than a pretty girl

She had something discreet

Pain in the pupils

And long sleeves in the month of July

She had a love

To put the needle through her veins

Numb her humanity

Drown her memories coming back

But even changing names

And color of the hair

Asking forgiveness every night

In something that approaches God

It remains in her heart

Drawers that won't close properly

Which remind her daily

That it's only on the way*

It had said that it was beautiful

The aurora borealis

In the Chibougamau sky

Nothing to do with Montreal
