Orelsan – Plus rien Lyrics English Translation

Plus rien Lyrics English Translation by Orelsan
(feat. Lilas)

I feel like
There are five strings missing on the guitar
You’re late and everyone’s looking at you strange
Alone in the middle of eight billion
I feel like I didn’t understand the story
I feel the emptiness in my soul, the grey in my soul
Like a glitch in my soul
Like voices in my skull
Like I hooked up with their girls and now they’re all mad at me
I don’t want an invite to your party
I don’t want a smoke, no booze, I don’t wanna talk
Wherever I show up, all I aim for is to get away
And I’ve got nothing against you, it’s just me
Everything’s neither hot nor cold, I feel so lukewarm
Like everything I touch is CTRL-Z
You can spoil the series, I see the screen, I see the pictures moving
But nothing’s printing, uh-huh
I see the lips moving, but for real I’m not listening, Uh-huh
I’m walking, but for real, I don’t wanna go anywhere, Uh-huh
Like I wanna curse out random mothers, Uh-huh
Like I’m being followed by a giant cockroach, Uh-huh

In the freezing wind, I couldn’t even breathe
I just watched the future crumble away
The more I reach for it, the deeper the shadow grows
You’re already nowhere to be found, aren’t you? (oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?)
Even my dreams have faded (oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?)
Whose shadow is this, reflecting back at me?
Show me what it means now (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)
Show me what it means now (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)
Rewrite it (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)
Until the day I can scream (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)

I feel like
There are pieces missing from the puzzle
Like what do they want?
Like I feel better alone
Like I don’t give a damn about your two-page letter
Like blinded by two headlights
And I’m a deer
Like a zero, like a bubble
I feel like nothingness, like a failure, like worthless
Cold, like there are big holes in the sweater
Like when it’s so cold, it burns
Like if I could just say damn
Like hurting myself would feel good
But whatever you want from me
It doesn’t do a thing for me anymore
Like I’m not a real human

In the freezing wind, I couldn’t even breathe
I just watched the future crumble away
The more I reach for it, the deeper the shadow grows
You’re already nowhere to be found, aren’t you?
How much more do I have to lose?
Nowhere left to go, left to go
Even when I struggle, everything feels like a lie
As the night sinks down
Show me what it means now (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)
Show me what it means now (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)
Rewrite it (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)
Until the day I can scream (it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore)

Actually, when I was like twelve, thirteen years old
I imagined I’d be a great singer
That I’d have long hair, that I’d be on stage
What’s crazy is that it happened
And even crazier
Is that it doesn’t do a thing for me anymore
