Traffic Girl [English translation]

There, in the unmoving morning

For months,

A city has been passing by right before your eyes

But you won't move away from there

In a mechanical uniform

Like a doll, you stay there

Nothing moves anymore, nothing flies by anymore

For a long time, a long time already.

The traffic has been passing by right before your eyes

But it doesn't exist, doesn't exist

I see the sun taking shape

Like a lifeless, voiceless ghost

A crushed shadow taking root

And basing its steps on yours

Slender and dreamy, impassive

And yet, no one believes it anymore

No one believes it

No one believes it anymore

And under the shining sun,

Always getting hotter, you stay there

And soon, you lose your balance

And you crash, from the top down

Just like in that invisible world

Just like the world, you know

You will not get back up

You will not get back up

I would have liked to see you

One more time

I would have liked to see you

But since in that country

You will not get back up

You will not get back up

Don't stay

Just like a wooden soldier,

You move and you see far in front of you

Just like a wooden doll,

You move and you smile for nothing in front of you

Just like a soldier for me,

You dance and you think, and what do you think of

Just like a wooden soldier,

You dance and you think, and what do you think of
