Comme Si 03:55
J’ai tout voulu tester Jamais rien demander Je me suis bien plantée Trop fière pour être aidée Je sais, c’est dur d’encaisser De m’regarder tomber Oui, mais tu devrais me laisser Y a qu’ça qui peut me désinhiber ! Comme si c’est toi qui pouvais changer ma vie Comme si c’est moi qui en avais l’envie Comme ci, comme ça, on peut fuir à l’infini Comme quoi, laisse-moi gérer seule tous mes soucis Sans arrêt harcelée Se sentant observée A force de te mêler Tu n’as fait qu’aggraver Tout c’que tu vas proposer J’vais nier en beauté Je n’suis toujours pas disposée Pas disposée à t’écouter, non ! Comme si c’est toi qui pouvais changer ma vie Comme si c’est moi qui en avais l’envie Comme ci, comme ça, on peut fuir à l’infini Comme quoi, laisse-moi gérer seule tous mes soucis Comme si, c'est toi, comme si, c'est moi, comme ci comme ça, comme quoi, laisse moi! Y'a qu'ça qui peut me désinhiber X3 Comme si c’est toi qui pouvais changer ma vie Comme si c’est moi qui en avais l’envie Comme ci, comme ça, on peut fuir à l’infini Comme quoi, laisse-moi gérer seule tous mes soucis

Dreamland 04:02
You'd think, after all this time dreaming, all the courage that it took to sail away Once my ship was on its way, I'd be cutting through the waves, the favorite of the race But all the horizon surrounding me Is plain uncertainty Sharks, storms, sails torn Wind blows hard against my faith I drift, row, search for (hold on, stay strong) A dreamland still so far away...away So lost, miss the feel of solid ground, it's been so long since I heard someone say my name Did I take the right direction? Out of ammunition Every sunrise looks the same Sharks, storms, sails torn Wind blows hard against my faith I drift, row, search for A dreamland still so far away...away Won't leave this ship, even if it sinks, built it with my own two hands, I'm on my way, I'll find my people and my land

Playful, adventurous, they come my way I'm foreign fruit, a challenging root to tame If you want to entertain, I won't complain Move your pawn, take me out of the mundane But let's just go ahead and make something clear I'm no beginner in this game my dear So if you think I'll let you in, so you can go and flatter your ego on the fantasy I'm serving you on a silver platter, you're well deluded I fear I don't need no lover Just someone to hold me through the night... from time to time I don't want no lover Just a conversation in the moonlight... a vacation from my mind Oh I've learned the rules; wisely choose colors and moods Give out a few clues, keep the score tied, just smile and elude A small wave in my ocean of solitude You seem confused as I show you my cards and my next move If you give me some care, I'll give you the same But don't be fooled it's just a friendly game So don’t you say you wanna love me like I deserve, it’s fire consuming what I paint my mirror, I know better, and yes I’ll take the blame I don't need no lover Just someone to hold me through the night... from time to time I don't want no lover Just harmonization, a flicker of light... a desertion from my mind No I don't need no expectations I don't need no frustration No unbalanced situation My heart in your hand, my hand on a rock Spare me the spiel, spare us the culture shock No more fine promises buried under the sheets Won't waste my burning kisses on latent cold feet No I don't want no lover No I don't need no lover No I don't... Just someone to hold me together... just for tonight

He said "you're the one I was waiting for I swear, I never felt this way before You got eyes deep enough to take a midnight swim Inside you’re fine-tuned like a Swiss clock and when You open that mouth, how could I ever get bored He said, you’re different and I’m longing for a bite As if I was to surrender to his appetite We had a good ride 'til I saw a red light I tried to be polite, said "I don’t think I’m your type" Then he shook me like a tree whose fruits aren’t ripe I let him vent his spleen, spit his love to my face Could taste his Xanax drowned in Chianti It was high time to close the case So I gave him, oh yes I gave him ... a reason to hate me He yelled "I am the one you need, don’t you see I know you don't but this is meant to be Good luck finding another man with feelings so pure I must admit, he got me thinking, 'cause he seemed so sure Blinded by the picture he was painting on me He cried "you’re playing me with your charm My mind's going wild without you in my arm Oh all I’d do to you, just give me a chance" "You wouldn't want me, I smiled, to give in to skilful hands" Then we did the worst routine I’ll ever dance I let him vent his spleen, spit his love to my face Was choking on chocolate, stoned by candy It was high time to close the case So I gave him, oh yes I gave him ... a reason to hate me
