lyrics

Le doigt dessus
Paroles par Alexis Normand,
Musique par Alexis Normand et James Bunton

Ou Ou Ou Ou

Je n’sais plus si je mérite cette chance
Si ma voix peut briser le silence,
Prise dans la boîte qu’il faut cocher
Qu’que chose semble mal placé

Je ne remarque plus le poids constant
De répondre à toutes les attentes
Je n’veux plus mener ce combat
Où est-ce que j’ai appris à faire ça?

J’peux juste pas mettre le doigt dessus
J’peux juste pas mettre le doigt dessus

Ou Ou Ou Ou

Je ne ressens même plus mon cœur qui casse
Quand on m’traite de personne de seconde classe
J’savais pas qu’j’portais ce mal
Quand est-ce qu’il est devenu normal?

J’voudrais me tailler une meilleure place
Mais j’trouve pas mon crayon ni mon efface
Je n’peux plus tracer mes contours
J’sais plus où j’suis dans mes détours

Je suis devenue le flou de l’entre-deux,
Le moi, le vous. Je suis le nœud
Que j’traine partout, et je n’peux

Juste pas mettre le doigt dessus
J’peux juste pas mettre le doigt dessus
J’peux juste pas mettre le doigt dessus

Ou Ou Ou Ou x2
