L'étape finale est selon elle

The final step is, according to her

Un aller simple, une voyelle

A one‑way ticket, just a vowel

Elle sera bénie par quatre lames

She’ll be blessed by four blades

J'ai dit adieu aux peaux infâmes

I said goodbye to those shady skins

A son réveil, elle me verra

When she wakes up, she’ll see me

En traître témoin de son état

A traitor, a witness to her state

If everyone is a disguise

If everyone is a disguise

I choose my own way to arise

I pick my own path to rise

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a mail bomber

I wanna be a mail bomber

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a mail bomber

I wanna be a mail bomber

(Vient au secours, en dernier recours)

(Help is coming, last resort)

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a mail bomber

I wanna be a mail bomber

Nous voilà seules, à pleurer comme

Here we are, alone, crying like

Ceux qui espéraient

Those who once had hope

Sans prendre forme

Without taking shape

Les promesses anciennes sont

Old promises are

Evanouies

Fading away

L'ardent visage se rétrécit

The fierce face shrinks

Now everything

Now everything

Is forgotten

Is forgotten

I'm unwanted

I’m unwanted

She wants to run

She wants to run

If you are here

If you’re here

To scrouse deny

To scrounge and deny

I choose my own way to arise

I pick my own path to rise

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a mail bomber

I wanna be a mail bomber

(Vient au secours, en dernier recours)

(Help is coming, last resort)

I wanna be a star

I wanna be a star

I wanna be a mail

I wanna be a mail

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a starshipper

I wanna be a mail bomber

I wanna be a mail bomber
