Middle class girl
Who dreams of a grandiose life
I know that happiness is found
In the not so much

Life on the red carpets
It's not any rosier
The only thing that has changed
Is that today I dare

I'm always afraid of failure
But I play the game
It was easier to mess everything up
Than to succeed

Good or bad I don't know
I think I didn't have a choice
I went out to find my place
Without waiting for the rain to pass

Oceane
Show the world who you are
Remember not to forget yourself
Oh you will need courage
The world is a masquerade ball
Where you have to disguise yourself

I resist or I give up
When I'm feeling bad
I make melodramas on my dictaphone
When the world puts me on the phone
I redo it in metaphors
On planet Earth I zone
Is it spinning backwards
Or am I just stoned?

I'm going to find balance in my missteps
I will never lose myself in the musts
In my joys in my battles
I want to push my voice like Balavoine

Feel my heart beating
I'm going to risk my life for that
Go out to find my place
Without waiting for the rain to pass

Oceane
Show the world who you are
Remember not to forget yourself
Oh you will need courage
The world is a masquerade ball
Where you have to disguise yourself

I'm not making movies
It's my name on the poster
The higher I climb
The more I get vertigo
Is it me they're applauding
In the eyes of the fans I see myself blushing

I feel like Jim Carrey
In the Truman show
I'm living the dream life
But the decor is fake
There are no friends in showbiz
There are only sharks doing business
I dreamed excessively
While you were not sleeping at night
In my race for success
Mom sorry if I worried you
I wanted to break the screen
Not to die of boredom
I didn't want to play the bad role
All my life
I didn't shoot my dreams
I changed target
I'm going to rob my life
I'm going to aim for the impossible

Oceane
Show the world who you are
Remember not to forget yourself
Oh you will need courage
The world is a masquerade ball
Don't let anyone disguise you
