Know Me - Live at the Arlington Theatre, Santa Barbara, CA - September 1992
Connais-moi - Live au Arlington Theatre, Santa Barbara, CA - Septembre 1992
[I
love
an
object,
singular
thing
Carried
beside
me
and
flaunted
for
me
Well
I
know
I'm
not
holy,
just
partially
good
No
time
for
my
family,
patience
to
brood
I
want
to
be
a
great
man,
A
hero,
a
martyr,
immortal
I'd
stand
well
I
haven't
the
guts
to
touch
lepers
or
queers
So
I'm
happy
to
waste
away
time
with
you
here]
[J'aime
un
objet,
une
seule
chose
que
je
porte
avec
moi
et
que
je
te
montre,
Je
sais
que
je
ne
suis
pas
saint,
juste
un
peu
bon,
Pas
de
temps
pour
ma
famille,
la
patience
pour
ruminer,
Je
veux
être
un
grand
homme,
un
héros,
un
martyr,
immortel,
Je
me
tiendrais
bien,
Mais
je
n'ai
pas
le
courage
de
toucher
les
lépreux
ou
les
gays,
Alors
je
suis
content
de
perdre
mon
temps
avec
toi
ici]
Should
I
have
believed
I
was
still
a
boy
Aurais-je
dû
croire
que
j'étais
encore
un
garçon
Naive
and
sane,
protected
wholly
Naïf
et
sain,
totalement
protégé
Tongue-tied
and
restless
Le
langage
lié
et
agité
Breathing
of
futures
Respirant
les
futurs
Know
me;
I
am
not
a
child
Connais-moi
; je
ne
suis
pas
un
enfant
Though
you
have
age
Même
si
tu
as
l'âge
You
have
not
felt
the
pain...
Tu
n'as
pas
senti
la
douleur...
Should
I
have
remained
obedient
and
docile
Aurais-je
dû
rester
obéissant
et
docile
So
far
restrained
Si
loin
retenu
The
hands
that
hold
me
back
Les
mains
qui
me
retiennent
Could
break
my
bones
Pourraient
me
briser
les
os
As
each
one
snaps
Comme
chaque
os
se
brise
I
hate
my
home
Je
déteste
ma
maison
Far
on
my
way
Loin
sur
mon
chemin
I
should
know,
I
was
born
here
Je
devrais
le
savoir,
je
suis
né
ici
Am
I
just
some
fool?
am
I
far
from
ready?
Suis-je
juste
un
imbécile
? suis-je
loin
d'être
prêt
?
Just
let
me
fall
and
Ill
believe
you.
Laisse-moi
simplement
tomber
et
je
te
croirai.
Chained
up
and
pampered
I
strain
until
I
crack
Enchaîné
et
choyé,
je
me
tend
jusqu'à
ce
que
je
craque
Know
me
before
you
kill
what
I
want
to
be
Connais-moi
avant
de
tuer
ce
que
je
veux
être
And
leave
me
cold
Et
me
laisse
froid
And
feeling
old
Et
me
sentir
vieux
Far
on
my
way
Loin
sur
mon
chemin
I
should
know,
I
was
born
here
Je
devrais
le
savoir,
je
suis
né
ici
Know
me--know
all
I
am
Connais-moi
- connais
tout
ce
que
je
suis
Far
on
my
way
Loin
sur
mon
chemin
I
was
cold
then
I
exploded
J'étais
froid
puis
j'ai
explosé
Know
me...
Connais-moi...
