Frittering

Frittering

I've seen you eat away

Je t'ai vu manger

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine*

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'au Rhin*

I've seen you chisel away

Je t'ai vu ciseler

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'au Rhin

And you wonder why I leave so soon

Et tu te demandes pourquoi je pars si tôt

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

Comment je monte si haut puis descends au fond de ta chambre

I've seen you fritter away

Je t'ai vu gaspiller

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'au Rhin

I've seen you whittle away

Je t'ai vu tailler

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the spine

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'à l'épine dorsale

And you wonder why I leave so soon

Et tu te demandes pourquoi je pars si tôt

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

Comment je monte si haut puis descends au fond de ta chambre

I wonder why I stay

Je me demande pourquoi je reste

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'au Rhin

I've seen you eat away

Je t'ai vu manger

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'au Rhin

I wonder what to do

Je me demande quoi faire

Slow as a glacier takes to move on through the world

Lentement comme un glacier qui prend son temps pour traverser le monde

And you wonder why I leave so soon

Et tu te demandes pourquoi je pars si tôt

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

Comment je monte si haut puis descends au fond de ta chambre

And you wonder why I leave so soon

Et tu te demandes pourquoi je pars si tôt

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

Comment je monte si haut puis descends au fond de ta chambre

I've seen you chisel away

Je t'ai vu ciseler

Hammer in place always in time

Marteler en place toujours à temps

I've seen you chisel away

Je t'ai vu ciseler

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

Lentement comme un glacier qui se fraye un chemin jusqu'au Rhin

And you wonder why I leave so soon

Et tu te demandes pourquoi je pars si tôt

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

Comment je monte si haut puis descends au fond de ta chambre
