J'ai Oublié de Vivre

By constantly smashing guitars in my hands
On violent stages, under strange lights
By forcing my strength to this effort
To move my fingers
To make my body vibrate

By letting sweat burn my eyes
By shouting my love to the skies
By throwing my heart into a microphone
Carrying the spotlights
And like a cross on my back

I forgot to live, I forgot to live

By constantly running the Earth like lightning
Breaking the sound barriers with laser displays
By throwing my treasures into the fire
Burning everything at once, yes
To make you scream

By constantly changing the color of my skin
My voice carrying the screams from the ghetto
By being a God, Hell's Angel, or Bohemian
Love in one hand, and hatred in the other

I forgot to live, I forgot to live

Yes, by constantly smashing guitars in my hands
Yes, on violent stages under strange lights
By forgetting that there is society
Ripping me from sleep
To make me sing

By constantly running on the roads of the World
For the eyes of a brunette or the body of a blonde
By constantly being the culprit
The thief, the plunderer, and the admirable violent one

I forgot to live, I forgot to live
Yes, I forgot to live, I forgot to live
