Go ahead, I'm good, I'm good, go ahead, wait
Yeah, you know the piano chords, right?
Go ahead

Rain every year, like in Liverpool
I'm proud of my actions when my mother approves
I who have disobeyed so much
I know that every year, she rediscovers me
No memories in the diary
Everything in the head, there's no magic
Here, you have to make twice as much effort like a paralympic athlete
I don't believe in chance but in timing
I believe in God, I believe in you
I believe in love, I believe in myself
In my free will
Airpods, two in the morning, Paris under my soles
I join my friends, we talk about going high
To give each other a leg up and end up at the top

Wild children
We were only
Wild children (we were)

You're here, you live as if we were all together
As if nothing had changed, so nothing has changed
Because we're still hungry for the sun, because we still sleep badly
Because we still want trips
We dodge the metro like wild children
I hear the wind again, interrupting our voices
When we sang on our bikes
Deep in our dreams, hard to take a step back
Like the butt on my shoulder
Cartridges on the ground, birds flying away
Funny relationship with violence
Fascinated by weapons, nature will always win over our arrogance

Wild children
We were only
Wild children (we were)

Bare-chested in the city in the middle of summer
Hanging on to our childhood dreams, to the idea of blowing everything up
Blood on us like on Ukrainian cement
We put everything off until the day after tomorrow
Don't talk about "Baudelairian" style
No, this is real life
The one that deserves to be lived with its excesses and its guardrails
Far from us the idea of being like the others or ending up on our knees
It's our codes that we trample on (wild children)
That's why there's a fire at the bottom of your house
I would like less venom in my body
And more wisdom like Athena (wild children)

Wild children (wild children)
We were only (wild children)
Wild children (we were only)
Wild children (wild children)
We were only (wild children)
Wild children (wild children)
(Wild children, wild children)

Hey, I thought about what I could say, uh
I could talk about love, I haven't found the exact words yet
But actually, everything starts from the energy of love
Because in truth love is not just relationships
It's also our passions, our dreams
All the things we give our all for
All the things we also struggle for
It's also family, friends

Before, I thought that the opposite of love was hate, but
But, if there's no love you can't hate
In truth, its opposite is fear
Because if you're afraid, you're going nowhere, you're not trying anything
You're immobilized, nothing's going to happen
It's nothingness, you see

And you know, also, I thought I should also talk, like
If I can write songs like "Free Spirit" or "When the Sun Falls"
Which, which go in the opposite direction as if I had, like, a thousand lives
In one life, in one album, it's simply because, in truth
All of this is mega-intense
Sometimes, it's a look, sometimes it's just a date
Like, even sometimes it's also a whole life
Anyway, you see, like, we could explain something like that, you see
Explain that
That love, it can happen anytime and it can last a minute
Like last ten years, you see
