Translation of PASSAGER from French to English
I don't know how to predict my moods, I don't know
I can feel the tears welling up without understanding why
But I know how to hold myself together so I internalize
And then I let come what terrifies me
I welcome my demons like friends
My rebounds like supports
And I accept the very highs, the very lows
My ego that struggles
To lead the fight
To receive what reassures me or offends me
With the same indifference
What reassures or offends
With the same indifference
What matters is knowing that we are not constant
That the road is long, and that all this time
That all this time
We're starting to know that we shouldn't trust too much
In immense despair, in unjustified joy
In great ascents, in great descents
Any slope if it's too violent
The path is the right one, it's just winding
But it will be beautiful everywhere as long as it's sincere
With its pink moments, with its moments of war
With its few pauses where everything seems very clear
And then suddenly
Without understanding anything at all
It all becomes blurry
All blurry
It's ok, it will be fine
That's how you're made
It will pass, it will come back
It will have the same effect
Tell yourself each time, it's only temporary
It's only temporary
It's only temporary
I don't know how to predict my moods, it's true
But well I'm starting to know how to tame them
It doesn't mean to make them obey
It doesn't mean to deny them
It's just a small step back to see the truth
What your body announces as a great gravity
The body announces too strongly, I've known it since I was born
So might as well wait since it's temporary
We said it's true, it's only temporary
Breathe as strongly as your body tells you
As strongly as your body tells you
What matters is knowing that we are not constant
That the road is long, and all this time
All this time
Of course we're going to change again
Of course it's not over
Of course we're going to progress
Aging is wisdom growing
But there are so many people, you know
So many who forget
The greatest danger that threatens them
Is to forget that one day it stops
Give yourself some time to leave yourself alone
Give yourself some time to love yourself
Give yourself some time to tell yourself it's easy
It would be enough to let go
Give yourself some time to leave yourself alone
Give yourself some time to love yourself
Give yourself some time to tell yourself it's easy
It would be enough to let go
It's ok, it will be fine
That's how we're made
It will pass, it will come back
It will have the same effect
Tell yourself each time, it's only temporary
It will relieve you
It's only temporary
