It starts like a game
Just to be like the others
Just to be like them
So they don't close the door on you
It starts like a fire
That you light gently
A bit of smoke and mirrors
That they slip to you while laughing

So you act as if
So you act like them
So you mess up
And you even believe that you're doing better
And you invent a life for yourself
From denial to denial
A life of madness, boredom, lies
Of euphoria

Get out of there, move a bit
These people, for friends you can do better
Where are you going? Wherever you want
You're worth more than that, no, you have nothing to do with them

You're slipping between the rails
I swear you're going nowhere
For this hellish journey
These are nothing but false starts
Stop saying that you're managing
That it's just from time to time
To get out of hell
You're jumping in with both feet

Get out of there, move a bit
These people, for friends you can do better
Where are you going? Wherever you want
You're worth more than that, no, I won't leave you with them

You've seen trains leave
That didn't want you
Your suitcase is too heavy
And the platform is burning under your steps
So you take your chance
In any wagon
To regain confidence
And to look a bit less stupid

I'm not judging you, I don't know
I'm not better
Me, I just had the chance not to
The chance not to
Yes, I just had the chance not to
Once again, I'm not judging you
There's so much strength in you
I won't leave you
It's up to you to have the chance not to
Look at me, you're worth more than that
It's up to you to have the strength not to
The strength not to
It's up to you to have the chance not to
