Le Chemin Translated - KYO

Le Chemin in English
Reviewed/Translated by John Elkhoury
COMPREHENSION DIFFICULTY: EASY
Like all my music reviews, I start with a French to English translation then critique the lyrics below.

Regarde-toi, assise dans l'ombreLook at you, sitting in the shadeÀ la lueur de nos mensongesAt the glow of our liesUne main glacées jusqu'à l'ongleA hand frozen to the nail
Regarde-toi à l'autre pôleLook at you, at the other endFermer les yeux sur ce qui nous rongeClosing your eyes on what gnaws us awayOn a changé à la longueWe change in the long run
[Refrain]On a parcouru le cheminWe traveled the pathOn a tenu la distanceWe held the distanceEt je te hais de tout mon corpsAnd I hate you with all of my bodyMais je t'adoreBut I love youOn a parcouru le cheminWe traveled the pathOn a souffert en silenceWe suffered in silenceEt je te hais de tout mon corpsAnd I hate you with all of my bodyMais je t'adore encoreBut I love you still
Je vis dans une maison de verreI live in a glass houseA moitié rempli de ton eauFilled half-way with your waterSans s'arrêter le niveau monteWithout stopping, the level rises
Je suis le fantôme qui s'égareI am the ghost that wandersJe suis l'étranger à ton coeurI am the stranger in your heartSeulement regarde comme on est seulOnly watching as if we are alone
[Refrain x3]
This KYO song is different because they teamed up with a Belgium singer, Sita. The song's easy and repetitive nature both help and hurt my overall impression of it. I really like the song up until the end of the second verse, once the refrain starts to repeat I just skip to the next song. The singing is beautiful but the song's message isn't really anything special. KYO will be featured again on FrenchCrazy, so stay tuned!
