lyrics

N'essaye Pas by Hugo King/Julie Slim

Je sens en moi
Ces maudits sentiments
Je peux voir qu'ça se passe encore
Je les entends, tous tes mensonges
Mais je peux voir, mes yeux sont clairs maintenant


Viens chez moi si tu veux
Je m’en fous pas mal
Mais ne me dis pas que tu m’aimes
Non, n’essaye pas du tout! Pas du tout

Je me noie
Dans La peine qui m'envahit
Un océan de ces jeux que tu joue bien
J’entends encore tes mensonges
Mais je ne joue plus
Le rideau est descendu

J’ai essayé d’être à ton côté
Mais moi toute seule sans toi
Ça ne marche pas
Et toi tu le veux bien
Mais tu n’as rien, rien à discuter
Rien du tout, rien c’est vrai

Don’t You Dare Hugo King/Julie Slim

Here it comes!
Those damn feelings again
I can tell it’s happening again
I can hear all the lies
But I see clearly with my sad eyes.

Come on in if you want to
I don’t give a damn!
But don’t tell me you love me
Don’t you dare!

I’m drowning again
In the pain suffocating me
A dirty ocean of games
You navigate so well
Your lies, echoing all around me
Grow silent in my deaf ears
The play has ended, the curtain has fallen

How I tried to be by your side
Yet finding myself alone, empty inside.
“I want you!” your lying lips flap
Empty words in the wind, fly!
Nothing to say, nothing at all
