Lyrics & Translation
The hidden side, front and back
Tell me the things
Don't pretend
Don't be shy about feelings
You know it's not that complicated
It's so simple in reality
Damn superficiality
It's sophisticated on the surface
Precisely calibrated
To give you a bit more class
You're paralyzed, what anxiety
It's obviously disturbing
To have to avoid each other in the mirror
In front
Front and back
Show me the back of the scene in the right way
Show me the reverse, what all this hides
Front and back
Show me the back of the scene in the right way
Show me the reverse, what all this hides
Tell me about all your ideals
The hidden side, front and back
Tell me the things and at the same time
Don't be shy about feelings
Even if it's not current
The sweeter the austerity will be
With a bit of intimacy
It's sophisticated on the surface
Precisely calibrated
To give ourselves a bit more space
We shouldn't stay in a dead end
It's obviously disturbing
To have to avoid each other face to face
In the mirror
Front and back
Show me the back of the scene in the right way
Show me the reverse, what all this hides
Front and back
Show me the back of the scene in the right way
Show me the reverse, what all this hides
