Comett Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ou me parles tu tout bas
Je ne sais pas, bug éphémère
Suis-je presque comme toi
On se ressemble tu vois
Tu ne le veux pas, je suis sincère
Suis-je au fond bien réel
Tu ne le crois pas, je suis amer
Un sang coule dans mes veines
Mes sentiments sont là
Tu t'en aperçois pas, je me libère
Et même si mon cœur reste une machine
Et même si mes pleures sont des gouttes d′huile
Je suis vous
