Peter Gabriel - Slowburn (Extended Version) - translation of the lyrics into French




Slowburn (Extended Version)
Slowburn (Version étendue)
We're character actors from the Tower of Babel
Nous sommes des acteurs de caractère de la tour de Babel
Bewildered, burnt out, hardly able
Déconcertés, épuisés, à peine capables
To sit astride the high wire cable
De nous asseoir à califourchon sur le câble de haute tension
It's hard to balance, a little unstable.
C'est difficile d'équilibrer, un peu instable.
Through broken eyes and contact lenses
À travers des yeux brisés et des lentilles de contact
Watched you draw your future tenses
Je t'ai vu dessiner tes futurs temps
See kisses of flame blow out of your lips
Voir des baisers de flamme s'échapper de tes lèvres
You're back telling me your Apocalypse.
Tu es de retour pour me raconter ton Apocalypse.
Don't get me wrong, I'll be strong
Ne te méprends pas, je serai fort
When the slow burn sunset come along
Quand le coucher de soleil lent et brûlant arrivera
You've gotta stay the night
Tu dois rester pour la nuit
I gotta think that you might.
Je dois penser que tu pourrais.
We've tried a handful of bills and a handful of pills
Nous avons essayé une poignée de billets et une poignée de pilules
We've tried making movies from a volume of stills
Nous avons essayé de faire des films à partir d'un volume d'images fixes
But the words fell like hailstones,
Mais les mots sont tombés comme des grêlons,
Bouncing at our feet
Rebondissant à nos pieds
Covering our feelings with a frozen sheet.
Couvrant nos sentiments d'un drap glacé.
A chance to move, I take a shot
Une chance de bouger, je prends un coup
I get cold you get hot
J'ai froid, tu as chaud
We look outside, lyin' awake
On regarde dehors, allongés éveillés
See birds breaking surface on a silent lake.
On voit des oiseaux briser la surface sur un lac silencieux.
But don't get me wrong, I'll be strong
Mais ne te méprends pas, je serai fort
When I'm back on the Isle of Avalon
Quand je serai de retour sur l'île d'Avalon
Don't get me wrong, I'll be strong
Ne te méprends pas, je serai fort
When the slow burn sunset come along
Quand le coucher de soleil lent et brûlant arrivera
You've got to stay the night
Tu dois rester pour la nuit
I've got to think that you might.
Je dois penser que tu pourrais.
Don't try to make it easy, it'll cut you down to size
N'essaie pas de le rendre facile, ça te réduira à ta taille
Darlin' we've got to trust in something
Chérie, on doit faire confiance à quelque chose
We're shooting down our skies
On tire sur nos cieux
Shooting down our skies
On tire sur nos cieux
