Le Bien Qui Fait Mal

But where does
the strange emotion
That fascinates me
As much as it disturbs me
I shiver stabbed by the beauty
It's like
In the soul the knife
The wound goes through my heart
And I have
Joy in pain
I get drunk on this poison
To the point of losing reason

It's the good that hurts when you love
Quite normal, your hatred
Takes pleasure, it's so good to suffer
Yield to the charm, give your tears
It's the good that hurts
(Hurts)
When you love
Quite banal
(This good that hurts)
Your pain
True delights come through torment
Lower your weapons, give your tears

I feel violent impulses
I feel like slipping down
If I don't know where this scourge comes from
I love having it under my skin

Enchanted by crazy ideas
Suddenly
My desires fly away
Desire becomes my prison
To the point of losing reason

It's the good that hurts when you love
Quite normal, your hatred
Takes pleasure, it's so good to suffer
Yield to the charm, give your tears
It's the good that hurts
(Hurts)
When you love
Quite banal
(This good that hurts)
Your pain
True delights come through torment
Lower your weapons, give your tears

I feel violent impulses
I feel like slipping down

It's the good that hurts when you love
Quite normal, your hatred
Takes pleasure, it's so good to suffer
Yield to the charm, give your tears
It's the good that hurts
(Hurts)
When you love
Quite banal
(This good that hurts)
Your pain
True delights come through torment
Lower your weapons, give your tears
