Only when you don't see me, if you don't see me
I find the courage to look at you
Without the panic that I still feel
From your unconscious coercion

Now that you don't see me, I will admit
That an evil desire
In a dream mocked
My control tower

And it was dirty and it was sinful
I couldn't assimilate that it was me
And it was me
There, I've said it once and for all
That it doesn't matter
It's not always the same

You rained on wet ground
Under your cloud, it was me
And it was me
There, I've said it once and for all
That it doesn't matter
It's not always the same

Anyone who saw me in my dark hours
Challenging for your skin when it's a wall
Would believe that my vice is to lick your shadows
But I only do it when you don't see me

No matter how much I try all the time
Desire jumps walls in reverse
Now I ask you to hate me from memory
Like an anthem of those who know how to lose

I will deny to the world the following
That if I'm abundant in anything
It's a lack of self-esteem and that's why I sing it to you
Without having to use "I love you"
Through a metaphor
That amphora I use to safeguard my fears
That one day you might understand them
An unacceptable situation
It may be that I'm addicted to you finding it hard to decipher me
If you understood the irony
Of wanting to be alone
And when I finally get time
I wonder why I run away
But I can only say it
When you don't see me

No matter how much I try all the time
Desire jumps walls in reverse
Now I ask you to hate me from memory
Like an anthem of those who know how to lose
The day the present becomes history
And the waters finally calm down for us
You will understand so many things in my silences
The ones I now write when you don't see me
