Une seule vie Lyrics English Translation by Angèle
What have our doubts done to our life?
And why are we here today?
She lives on cruise control, never looking back
No parties, no drinks, no dancing, no risks
Only love can fill the void
But I’m scared of losing myself too fast
We should play at being adults
Get into our little routines, but
I wish we could breathe
We only get one life, maybe
You’ll always see it in my eyes
I need to burn up my desires
And I don’t know what would be best
We only get one life, maybe
Saying it isn’t enough
Ah, time passes and we watch
Our lives slip through our fingers
We don’t even know why
Ah, everything’s already lost
We become what we don’t wanna be
We don’t even know why
I don’t know what I want
Take the red pill or the blue one?
Counting the time that’s left
To live in the moment even if it kills me
What’s the right choice?
When I mess up is when I don’t act
I try so hard, but I lose myself
The future ruined our dreams
What has the world done to our life?
It was supposed to show us the way
I wanna be a grown-up me, not an adult, no
I say it like that, like it’s nothing
Only love can fill the void
But could we stay free forever?
We’d have to build another life
Not sure I even want to, so
I wish we could breathe
We only get one life, maybe
You’ll always see it in my eyes
I need to burn up my desires
And I don’t know what would be best
We only get one life, maybe
Saying it isn’t enough
Ah, time passes and we watch
Our lives slip through our fingers
We don’t even know why
Ah, everything’s already lost
We become what we don’t wanna be
We don’t even know why
I don’t know what I want
Take the red pill or the blue one?
Counting the time that’s left
To live in the moment even if it kills me
What’s the right choice?
When I mess up is when I don’t act
I try so hard, but I lose myself
The future ruined our dreams
The event horizon
Draws a tomorrow
Everything will eventually fall
The void, the nothing
How to dream, tell me how to dream, tell me how to dream
We still wanna imagine
Maybe you’re cheating on me
Maybe we’re trembling
Maybe we’ve lost, not sure I wanna know
Maybe nothing’s rosy, not even my childhood
Maybe I’ve forgotten, not sure I wanna know
Maybe I’m bored
Maybe we’re yelling at each other
Maybe we’re screwed, not sure I wanna know
Not sure I wanna know
I don’t know what I want
I don’t know what I want
I don’t know what I want
I don’t know, I don’t know
I don’t know what I want
Take the red pill or the blue one?
I don’t know what I want
I don’t know, I don’t know
What’s the right choice? (We only get one life, maybe)
When I mess up is when I don’t act (You’ll always see it in my eyes)
I don’t know what I want (I need to burn up my desires)
I don’t know (And I don’t know what would be best)
(We only get one life, maybe)
I don’t know (You’ll always see it in my eyes)
I don’t know (I need to burn up my desires)
(And I don’t know what would be best)
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know
