Ne pas partir, ne pas mourir
Catherine Ribeiro
Not Leaving, Not Dying
{Refrain:}
Not leaving, not dying
Without having loved again
Leaving like a stranger
In the name of indifference
Dying, closing my eyes
In the name of intolerance
{Refrain}
Leaving with or without regrets
The blues that steals your soul
Dying from the crack of their whips
Thrown like battle flags
{Refrain}
Leaving towards that vast horizon
Without memory or trace
Dying without permission
Letting the world have its story
{Refrain}
Leaving on the edge of my tears
Loneliness at the bottom of the pit
Dying without being disarmed
By what used to be my safety nets
{Refrain}
