Original Lyrics

Au charme non plus

Toutes les tendances
Tes extravagances
Je connais
Jusqu'au bout des doigts
Tous tes plans séquences
Aujourd'hui me laissent dans l'indifférence
Je ne sais pas pourquoi
Brillent par leur absence
Mes larmes
Non plus
Voici l'échéance
J'te rends ton alliance
Assez
De cette bague à mon doigt
Trop de turbulences
Je ne veux plus que hurle le silence
A cause de toi
Brillent par leur absence
Mes larmes
Tu ne m'auras plus
Rends toi à l'évidence
Au charme
Non plus
Et trop tard se déclenche
L'alarme
Tu l'auras voulu
Oui je te fais confiance
Aux armes
Tu me tues
Brillent par leur absence
Mes larmes
Tu ne m'auras plus
Rends toi à l'évidence
Au charme
Non plus
J'me fiais aux apparences
Prudence
C'est là que tu m'as eue
Je manquais d'expérience
Innocence
Perdue
C'était perdu d'avance
Malchance
De l'ange déchu
J'étais toute en nuances
Espérances
Déçues 		English Translation

To the Charm Neither

All the tendencies 
Your extravagances 
I know 
To the tips of my fingers 
All your plans of sequences 
Today leave me in indifference 
I don't know why 
Shine through their absence 
My tears 
Neither 
There is the possibility (I'm not sure here) 
I give you your (engagement) ring back 
Enough 
Of this ring on my finger 
Too many turbulences 
I don't want that the silence screams anymore 
Because of you 
Shine through the absence 
My tears 
You won't have me anymore 
Return to the obviousness
To the charm
Neither 
And too late sets of itself 
The alarm 
You wanted it 
Yes I trust you 
Shoulder arms 
You kill me 
shine through their absence 
My tears 
You won't have me anymore 
Yield to the facts 
To the charm 
Neither 
I trusted the appearances 
Caution (prudence, carefulness) 
That's where you got me 
I lacked the experience 
Innocence 
Lost 
It was lost since the beginning 
Misfortune 
Of the dethroned (fallen) angel 
I was all in nuances 
Hopes 
Deceived
