SOS d'un terrien en détresse [English translation]

Why do I live?

Why do I try?

What I would give

If just to die

I stay and no one calls

The play ends, the curtain falls

I never dreamed that I could fail

Lived my life on fairy tales

Dying, growing stale

Always believed that I could fly

Now I see the final lie 

A better place on high, oh, on high 

Always lived in fantasies

Of heroes who’d come save the day 

I’ve so often dreamed of becoming a star

But the world went too far

Now I go, now I go,

I must go where you are

Life’s not a game that you can win

Can’t escape this hell within

Seething in my skin 

In the end, you die alone 

You're left on your own 

Why can’t I live

Why can’t I try?

What I would give

If I could die

I hear a coming strain

The rainbow after rain 

I never dreamed that I could fail

Lived my life on fairy tales

Dying, growing stale

Oh, sweet ma belle, the price's too steep

Now the cold won't let me weep

Now it's time to sleep...
