I sometimes wonder what I look like
What I look like without my mask
How tall I am when I'm not on my knees
What I could have done with the time that passes
I used to look younger than my age
But the past caught up with me
Now I'm in sync, it's a shame
All broken, all crumpled
All crumpled

I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
No more absolutes, no more nobility
I'm really lost, I'm really out of it
You're the only thing I have left

I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
You'll have to make do with what's left
It's okay if you're not a princess
You're the only chance I have left
I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture

So I live between two waters
I cheat death, I cheat life
Some will say I'm overdoing it
An overdose of melancholy
When I can't take it anymore, I sit on a bench
I watch these people, these people who manage
It's true they're beautiful but it's awkward
They have sharp teeth and hard stares
Paintings

I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
No more absolutes, no more nobility
I'm really lost, I'm really out of it
You're the only thing I have left
I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
You'll have to make do with what's left
It's okay if you're not a princess
You're the only chance I have left
I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture

If you could cast a spell on me
If you could one day fill
This lack anchored in my body
That I've been carrying forever

I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
No more absolutes, no more nobility
I'm really lost, I'm really out of it
You're the only thing I have left
I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
You'll have to make do with what's left
It's okay if you're not a princess
You're the only chance I have left
I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture

I no longer seek the beauty of the gesture
