El síndrome de París Lyrics English Translation by Fangoria
I can sense I was hoping for something more
from that promise of modernity
What I see is what there is:
disappointment and abandonment
An existential disenchantment
the pandemonium in a city
that surrenders to vulgarity
No matter how much I idealize
I can’t camouflage
what I feel in my street and for you
it’s the Paris syndrome
Adieu mon chèri
me marcho de aquí
I’ll stop the drama and learn
to disappear
Adieu mon chèri
I’m running from you
I’ll demystify the madness
So goodbye
I’ve put up with you enough
It’s the curse of doing it wrong
Why neglect what you already have?
What’s left is what there is:
disillusion and decay
Time to explore another stage
another vision of opportunity
Relive that death-defying leap
A picture of anxiety
to disguise
what I feel in my street and for you
it’s the Paris syndrome
Adieu mon chèri
me marcho de aquí
I’ll stop the drama and learn
to disappear
Adieu mon chèri
I’m running from you
I’ll demystify the madness
So goodbye
I’ve put up with you enough
The strategy is to hide
what I no longer want to see
Locked inside myself
destined to resist
Adieu mon petit
C’est la vie
I’ll stop the drama and learn
to disappear
In Paris and in Madrid
C’est fini
I’ll demystify the madness
So goodbye
I’ve put up with you enough
