Singer – Mattyeux
I was walking, down by the station
I saw a boy there, he had no patience
We got talking, down by the river
He was wondering, “How did we get here?”

Dans une pièce vide remplie d’agates
Je m’allonge sur le tapis
Symphonie des bruits de couloirs
Les yeux ouverts à demi
In an empty room filled with agates
I lie down on the carpet
Symphony of hallway noises
Eyes half open
Je suis médusé
Par tout ces bruits, ces logorrhée
Si on te disait que c’était la fin
A quoi tu repenserais en premier?
I am stunned
By all these noises, these talkativeness
If we told you that this was the end
What would you think about in first?
All the noise and information makes me want to close my eyes
All the noise and information makes me want to close my eyes
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Inside, outside, up and down
And this way, that way, left and right
Will I ever feel like I did, when I was a little child?
Inside, outside, up and down
And this way, that way, left and right
Will I ever feel like I did, when I was a little child?
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Comme une envie de Farmer les yeux
Quand j’entends tout ces bruits
Je me sens apathique et fiévreux
Je veux être partout mais loin d’ici, indécis
Like a desire to Farm my eyes
When I hear all these noises
I feel apathetic and feverish
I want to be everywhere but far from here, undecided
Je regarde ton visage apaisé
Les autres personnes t’paraissent aigries
Je crois que t’es pas loin d’la vérité
I look at your peaceful face
The other people seem bitter to you
I don’t think you’re far from the truth
All the noise and information makes me want to close my eyes
All the noise and information makes me want to close my eyes
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
Sometimes, you wait a little while
To see what’s wrong and right
You wait a little while
