lyrics

Sécher les joues
Essuyer mauvais rêves
Croiser le jour
Café collé aux lèvres
Rugir en cage
Ou laisser faire
Cette rage qu’on range
Sous masque de pierre
Et sentir à nos lèvres comme une envie-câline
De rallumer la flamme en haut de la colline

Enfermer les fous
Rassurer les canines
Caresser le cou
Des âmes-aubépines
Ou casser l’écrou
Pour crier de l’âme
Et rejoindre les foules
En ciel-caravane
Et sentir à nos lèvres comme une envie-malice
De crier comme on crêve de cueillir la cerise

Pas plus libres qu’un chat maigre
Ni plus beaux que la roue d’un paon
Mais bien plus fous que le taureau qu’on blesse (x2)
De sentir à nos lèvres comme une envie que sonne
Plutôt que marche ou crève, ni prince ni royaume
Et que brille à nos lèvres, timide Valentine
La révolte qui traine au feu de nos angines

Sécher les joues
Essuyer mauvais rêves
Croiser le jour
Café collé aux lèvres
