Star
I don't always know how to describe everything I feel
But tonight, I'd like to say
Things that I truly know
Star, becoming a star
Is a beautiful story
A shooting star, a light of one night
That comes and goes
We only see the fame
Nobody's interested in the rest
If you want, I'll give up
I feel a bit down
Maybe I'm boring you
We come on stage
Like lions in the arena
We don't make things easy for you
We defend our skin
Some are booed
Others are celebrated
Some never recover from it
From good to bad roles
We spend our lives in sad bars
Music halls
It's not always fun
Some walk too fast
Without having had time to learn to live
And when their style is gone
They're thrown away, swept, classified
But do you know what it's like
To carry a name that is no longer yours
And the time it takes to accept the truth
Those who adored you
Have forgotten
When they no longer like you
You've lost everything
And how to forget the eyes
Of young or old men
Who were at your feet
For one night
Their flowers and little letters
Which we never quite believed in
Others walk later
But too many false hopes
Have made them some bitter
And they're hardly ever happy
Star, becoming a star is a beautiful story
A shooting star, a light of one night that comes and goes
We only see the fame
From good to bad roles
We spend our lives in sad bars
Music halls
It's not always fun
Those who think they're a beautiful sight
Molded in sequins,
Show off their bodies, sell their gestures
I like musicians when they work hard until morning
There are a few women who know how to move
Three steps and it's a done deal
Maybe if I tried, I could do it
But I'm not very comfortable using my body
I'm afraid of forgetting my lines, I think about the next chord
It's not very spectacular, I don't know how to do it
I sing songs about you and us, that's all
Anyway, I don't know why I'm telling you all this
Sorry for the detour, I live from day to day
Star, becoming a star, a derisory puppet
A shooting star, a light of one night, poor mirror that is only made of glory
It's not always fun
To spend your life in sad bars
Music halls
To switch from good to bad roles
Yet, if you don't mind
My clumsiness and all that
I'll come and sing for you
Even when nothing is going well
Elian E.
