Translation
A man's shadow
With eyes barely open
Hurt by the daylight
I've got a bitter taste
The memory of their laughing around me.
They were my raison.. (my raison d'être*), my tune and song
Knocked-down, in my twilight,
I've lost my dignity, my name
I've kind of given up my dreams to my demons.
Give me my life back
Give me my seasons, my nights back
If you forget me and I couldn't
I am no longer
But a father's shadow, a man's shadow
Alone with this drink that confines me, that forgives me
I drown my prayers, they're carried away, disoriented,
Like a bottle at sea
Torn away by the words left in the pit of our silences
I had so much to tell you
To give direction to our future
Before running from my opportunities
I'm begging you
Look, we were so good
As though sheltered from their everyday sorrows
No, nothing's over
Without you I feel lost
If you run away if I've drunk too much, I am no longer
But a father's shadow, a man's shadow
Alone with this drink that confines me, that forgives me
I drown my prayers, carried away, disoriented,
Like a bottle at sea (x2)
Mmm we were so good yeahhh ... Ooooh
But a father's shadow, a man's shadow
Alone with this drink that confines me, that forgives me
I drown my prayers, they're carried away, disoriented,
Like a bottle at sea (x2)
