Name: Quand il fait noir
Duration: P00H03M38S
Description: Sometimes the way you feel doesn't match with society's boxes. Sometimes you are equipped with a body that does not match your gender identity. Sometimes you are depressed but nobody seems to honestly want you to share this. Sometimes you want to be free but society seems to want you to join in the rat race that inherently makes you unhappy.

about

Sometimes the way you feel doesn't match with society's boxes. Sometimes you are equipped with a body that does not match your gender identity. Sometimes you are depressed but nobody seems to honestly want you to share this. Sometimes you want to be free but society seems to want you to join in the rat race that inherently makes you unhappy.

lyrics

Quand il fait noir

quand le soleil brillait
j’avais des ailes de cire
transparantes et fragiles
comme une illusion

quand il a tellement plu
J'avais des ailes de papier
je n’ai jamais pensé
que je pourrais voler

Je n’attend pas demain
moi je suis sur mon chemin
je m’en fous oú
le vent me portera

je n’ai enfin plus peur
et je saute dans les profondeurs
quand il fait noir
l’étoile me mènera

quand le vent a chanté
j’ai compris son appel
ses soupirs de flanelle
son souffle de velours

il y a certains nuages
le long de mon visage
sombre comme de l'encre
et l’abîme grandit
