En parallèle je vivais dans un estomac de baleine
Une sombre cavité de porcelaine
Je n'avais pas remarqué toutes ces chaînes attachées à mes poignets
You call the shots
You state the rules
You now the players and the players play it cool
You can't complain
You can't make a fuss
There's only one turn of the cards for fools like us
You turne the wheel
You throw the dice
You know the play and it ain't always nice
But you can't complain
You can't make a fuss
There's only one turn of the cards for fools like us
Je sens qu'ils m'appellent oui je sais qu'ils voudraient mon âme et mes veines
Même loin d'eux j'entends le chant des sirènes
Je n'ai pas pu oublier que dans cette arène on ne joue que pour gagner
You call the shots
You state the rules
You now the players and the players play it cool
But you can't complain
You can't make a fuss
There's only one turn of the cards for fools like us
You turne the wheel
You throw the dice
You know the play and it ain't always nice
But you can't complain
You can't make a fuss
There's only one turn of the cards for fools like us
You can't complain
You can't make a fuss
There's only one turn of the cards for fools like us
