La loi du silence [English translation]

Words between four walls

Words that knock inside

And seconds that last for hours

No humour, no culture

A black sky for every future

And eyes that don't know how to lie

The heart between four turns

The visiting room of prisons

And just the power to say no

Who was never subject to

The law of silence

The weight of silence

The voice of silence?

Who has never known

The sound of silence

The roar of silence

The law of silence?

We don't learn how to smile

We learn indifference

We are on the shadow of our existence

We have the access forbidden

And fear on our looks

The eyes that change sidewalks

Nothing to lose, nothing to say

To be only our worst enemy

And to see the flames dancing in the night

Who was never subject to

The law of silence

The weight of silence

The voice of silence?

Who has never known

The sound of silence

The roar of silence

The law of silence?

Nothing to lose, nothing to say

To be only our worst enemy

And to see the flames dancing in the night

Who was never subject to

The law of silence

The weight of silence

The voice of silence?

Who has never known

The sound of silence

The roar of silence

The law of silence?
