Can anyone who knows french shortly tell me what his song “Cancer” is about? Or just a little bit about what the lyrics says, because I don’t understand it but it’s absolutely BEAUTIFUL😢
I translated the text for you. I wasn’t always sure because my mother tongue is German. Here it is, a sad song: Sleep deeply my child Close your eyes for both of us In the silence your innocence And eruptions in my voice When the piano sounds Like a knife on my skin Everything abandons me You dream like I take water (??) Sleep eternally my child I don‘t get enough air Under your eyelids I see the worst in your smile I feel disgust loving you When the piano sounds Wrong in my waters (?) Everything poisons me When I hum these few words This refrain like a call Like an echo Uhhh… And when I see you Dead in my arms
It’s called « Drops » I think: it’s his own song, but it wasn’t published yet, so you’re only going to find other live versions of it if you look it up.
