Songes [English translation]

I am, faced with life.

An infidel, a rebel

I leave to infinity

My fake wings and my ideas

Eternally unsatisfied

I leave to time that which it has taken from me

I stagger into oblivion

Like a child who dozes off

In the world of dreams

I walk with closed eyes

Into the circle I plunge

All my incomplete poems

It's my cage of questions

Fantasies without a subject

I travel without reason

Into the allusion of my projects

Without damage I say no

To false or erroneous ideas

It's my world of shivers

I invite you to enter it

Soothed by voices that I only hear in the dark

Sometimes guided step by step I take the time to play the part

The part between the demons who develop a taste for my sleep

When dreams become distorted and nightmares wake up

I'm scared to lose my way1, I have a compass that isn't working

Give me just one good reason to trust in my ideas

They are crazy and without end, no one will listen to them

I believe that in the illusion there is a bit of truth

I'm scared to be me,

To be alone in the dark

Why make a choice

If we can't even have me anymore

It's my cage of questions

Fantasies without a subject

I travel without reason

Into the allusion of my projects

Without damage I say no

To false or erroneous ideas

It's my world of shivers

I invite you to enter it
