English:

Joy Facing Death

I have nothing to forget and nothing can offer me What every night allows me and the day confiscates Alcohol you smile to me, you only know how to harm me I spoil my desires and the source of my pleasures

I am joy facing death, I am myself this war That strikes me with a lightning and washes me in my sorrow I am the cross in front of your lips, I am myself this war Where the rivers of my blood will shut down without a prayer

I like talking to you so much but I cannot confide to you The secrets of my torment that only you would understand Love flees under my fingers and I knew only how to keep The mirage of silhouettes that I will never forget

I am joy facing death, I am myself this war That strikes me with a lightning and washes me in my sorrow I am the cross in front of your lips, I am myself this war Where the rivers of my blood will shut down without a prayer

I don't know how to protect you, even less how to express to you what rocks my expectations before you leave I have so much pain to ask to justify to you better That a beautiful morning, exhausted, my heart will be cold as steel

I am joy facing death, I am myself this war That strikes me with a lightning and washes me in my sorrow I am the cross in front of your lips, I am myself this war Where the rivers of my blood will shut down without a prayer
