Original Lyrics
Translation in French
verse
He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
Il m'a raconté de doux mensonges de doux amours
Heavy with the burden of the truth
Lourd du fardeau de la vérité
And he spoke of his dreams
Et il a parlé de ses rêves
Broken by the burden
Brisés par le fardeau
Broken by the burden of his youth
Brisés par le fardeau de sa jeunesse
verse
"14 years", he said
"14 ans", a-t-il dit
"I couldn't look into the sun"
Je ne pouvais pas regarder le soleil
She saw him laying at the end of my gun
Elle l'a vu allongé au bout de mon arme
Hungry for life
Affamé par la vie
And thirsty for the distant river
Et assoiffé par la rivière lointaine
verse
I remember his hands
Je me souviens de ses mains
And the way the mountains looked
Et la façon dont les montagnes regardaient
The light shot diamonds from his eyes
La lumière a projeté des diamants de ses yeu
Hungry for life
Affamé par la vie
And thirsty for the distant river
Et assoiffé par la rivière lointaine
chorus
Like the scar of age
Comme la cicatrice de l'âge
Written all over my face
Écrit sur tout mon visage
The war is still raging inside of me
La guerre fait toujours rage en moi
I still feel the chill
Je sens encore le froid
As I reveal my shame to you
Alors que je vous révèle ma honte
I wear it like a tattoo
Je le porte comme un tatouage
I wear it like a tattoo
Je le porte comme un tatouage
I wear it like a tattoo
Je le porte comme un tatouage
Writer(s): Helen Adu, Stuart Matthewman, Andrew Hale
