Je suis malade [English translation]

I no longer dream, I no longer smoke

I no longer have a history

I am dirty without you

I am ugly without you

I'm like an orphan in a dormitory

I no longer have the will to live my life

My life ceases when you leave

I no longer have a life, and even my bed

Becomes a train platform

When you leave

I am sick

Completely sick

Like when my mom would go out in the evenings

Leaving me alone with my despair

I am sick

Perfectly sick

You arrive, one never knows when

You leave again, one never knows where to

And it has been almost two years

Since you've stopped caring

Like a rock

Like a sin

I'm hung up on you

I'm tired, I'm exhausted

Of hiding behind a mask of happiness when they're around

I drink every night

But all the whiskies

Taste the same to me

And all the boats wave your flag

I don't know where to go anymore; you're everywhere

I am sick

Completely sick

Like when my mom would go out in the evenings,

Leaving me alone with my despair

I am sick

Perfectly sick

You have deprived me of all my songs

You have drained me of all my words

I had talent before you got under my skin

This love is killing me

If it goes on any longer, I'll burst apart

By my radio like an idiot kid

To the sound of my own voice singing:

I am sick

Completely sick

Like when my mom would go out in the evenings

Leaving me alone with my despair

I am sick

That's right--I'm sick

You've deprived me of all my songs

You've drained me of all my words

And my heart is completely sick too

Surrounded by barricades

You hear? I'm sick
