Sur la ligne exacte, entre clair-obscur,
A l'heure immédiate, du passé futur,
Je marche dans une ville inconnue surveillée par personne.
A cette heure précise souffle le désir.
Ne me dites rien, encore, laissez-le venir.
Je marche dans une ville inconnue surveillée par personne.
Je file la beauté disparue et son pas qui résonne.
J'ai voyagé si loin pour me voir en dedans,
Gagner du temps.
Pourrais-je encore partir sans penser à m'enfuir,
M'anéantir,
Danser avec ma mort sur une place vide
Et donner au plaisir le parfum du suicide.
Alors ne pleurez plus, madones,
Je n'attends pas qu'on me pardonne.
Le soleil éclate entre rouge et noir.
Pour le dernier acte, au bord du trottoir.
Je marche dans une ville inconnue surveillée par personne.
Le soir passé, la nuit tendue, quelque chose déconne.
Cassure immédiate, entre clair-obscur,
Sur la ligne exacte de ma déchirure.
Entre chien et loup, le premier impact.
Ne me dites rien, encore, laissez-les se battre.
Se battre dans une ville inconnue surveillée par personne.
Passé la limite absolue, la police abandonne.
Je suis allé très loin pour me voir en dedans,
Gagner du temps.
Pourrais-je encore partir sans penser à m'enfuir,
M'anéantir,
Danser avec ma mort sur une place vide
Et donner au plaisir le parfum du suicide.
Alors ne pleurez plus, madones,
Je n'attends pas qu'on me pardonne.
Surtout ne pleurez pas, madones.
Je n'attends plus qu'on me pardonne.
Je marche dans une ville inconnue surveillée par personne.
Je lis sur l'asphalte des rues le secret des madones.
Un soir et quelques heures encore à tirer sur l'exil,
Filer la beauté disparue qui ne tient qu'à un fil,
Le dernier soir, la dernière nuit, pour savoir qu'elle existe
Et donner à l'ange déchu le goût du sacrifice.
Bernard Lavilliers is a French singer-songwriter born in Saint-Étienne in 1946. Coming from a modest family, he developed a passion for music at the age of four. After working in a factory, he joined the Communist Party to defend his ideals and in 1965 left for Brazil, an experience that deeply marked his worldview. His return to France led him to be considered a draft dodger and imprisoned for a year. He began singing in cabarets and in 1967 released his first single. In 1968 he released his first album, simply titled "Lavilliers", which later became his stage name. Throughout the 1970s, he achieved success with albums such as "Les poètes" (1972), "Le Stéphanois" (1975) and especially "Les Barbares" (1976). The latter consecrated him as one of the most important French singer-songwriters. Lavilliers is known for his songs that often deal with social, political and travel themes. Among his most representative tracks are "Le Grand Bleu", "La Ballade de la rue des Amants" and "Les Barbares". In 1992 he sang alongside Léo Ferré at the fête de l'Humanité. In 2004 he released the album "Carnets de bord", an ode to travel, and in 2005 the book 'Bernard Lavilliers, Escales' by Gert-Peter Bruch was published.
