++Shadow of life+++

User Rating:

9.9 /10

  I am a victim and you know that I know this.
Je suis une victime et vous savez que je le sais.

You say that you love me,
but the words lose their meaning,
when they are passed through the filter
of reason and truth.
Vous dites que vous m'aimez
mais les mots perdent leur sens
quand ils sont passés par le filtre
de la raison et la vérité.

I would have wished you to be the man of my dreams
or at least I would have preferred that
our seemingly love to be
rather an illusion of reality
than a reality of illusion
J'aurais voulu que vous soyez l'homme de mes rêves
ou au moins j 'aurais préféré
notre amour apparemment être
plutôt une illusion de réalité
qu'une réalité d'illusion

I wish you to be aware that
with every victim that dies
you're increasingly poor with a feeling..
and still less able to love again
Je veux que vous soyez conscients cela
avec chaque victime qui meurt
vous êtes de plus en plus pauvres avec un sentiment..
et toujours moins capable d'aimer de nouveau

and every time you kill
love itself, of yourself, of herself
you just stay only with the shadow of life.
et la chaque fois vous tuez
l'amour lui-même, de vous, d'elle
vous restez seulement avec l'ombre de vie.

This is very true, Marieta. Love also becomes meaningless when it is linked to reasons and logics.

Beautifully expressed thoughts in both French and English
