We found each other, at the edge
We found each other, at the limit
Before tomorrow becomes yesterday
And the obvious takes flight
In a garden of the capital
Our lips dared the question
"Can we do it, without hurting each other"
"Love and revolution?"

We had known each other forever
We had been looking at each other for a long time
I had taken a liking to detours
And to black and white stories
You had that wound
Those memories, troubled and voracious
Our mouths dared to whisper
"Does it go away when I kiss you?"

I have the age we give ourselves
I have the age we play
I trust no one
But I trust us
I have the age we give ourselves
I have the age we play
I trust no one
But I trust us

I told you, "I row solo"
I have a long fight to lead
I burn in the middle of brushes
Hard drives, rusty strings
And this struggle, it's my whole life
And my fever, it's all I have
I probably won't sleep at night
Don't try to heal me

You said, "don't worry, I'm at war"
Against those who ruin the world
Healing you, I have other things to do
Each their own fire, each their own sling
So go ahead, play the hero
But don't think it impresses me
Be Cyrano, Monte-Cristo
And I will be Antigone

I have the age we give ourselves
I have the age we play
I trust no one
But I trust us
I have the age we give ourselves
I have the age we play
I trust no one
But I trust us

Look at me well
Dying is over
For this year, at least
At least for today
I don't give a damn, you know
About the eternal show-offs
Who can't suspect
The strength of the outsiders

I have the age we give ourselves
I have the age we play
I trust no one
But I trust us
I have the age we give ourselves
I have the age we play
I trust no one
But I trust us
