THE OTHER ONE

what a stir facing this ego
who seems to graze the other one
what a stir facing the faith
of one pushing the other one
It's the loneliness of space
resonant in oneself
one feels so lonely sometimes
So, I must believe that an angel goes by
who softly says i'm here for you
and you are me
Who is the other one
what a strange messenger
Who is the other one
your face is friendly
Who is the other one
who my life took refuge into
He's a friend, it's him
You and me together
we're gonna weave an "other one"
another ego, another voice
without one kicking the other
I've in mind my weaknesses
but in my hands also my strengths
Then in order to defeat the sadness
and to overcome one's doubt
I need a friend
The friend, it's him
Who is the other one
what a strange messenger
Who is the other one
your face is friendly
Who is the other one
who my life took refuge into
He's a friend, it's him

Aκούμπησε στα χέρια σου την ψυχή σου
Κι'εσύ την τσαλάκωσες σαν έναν καημό
Κι'επειδή καταδίκασες τις διαφορές μας
δεν θα βαδίζουμε πια μαζί
Η ζωή του ίπταται με μια φτερούγα μόνο
οι φλόγες χορεύουν,τα χέρια υψώνονται
εκεί που πάει έχει ένα ψύχος θανάσημο
Κι'αν ο άνθρωπος δεν αλλάζει ουρανό,ονειρεύτικα...

Ονειρεύτικα πως μπορούμε να αγαπηθούμε
στην πνοή του ανέμου
να εξυψώσουμε την ψυχή, την ανθρώπινη φύση μας,
το αιμάτινο πανωφόρι
Το "¨Θα φτύσω πάνω στον τάφο σας"
δεν είναι το αληθινό, το όμορφο,
ονειρεύτικα πως μπορούμε να αγαπηθούμε...

Γιατί να καταρρίπτουμε τοίχους
αν είναι να υψώνουμε μνήματα στην θέση τους;
Αν αγνοούμε έτσι την ανεκτικότητα,
δεν θα βαδίζουμε πια μαζί
Οι άγγελοι κουράστηκαν να μας επιβλέπουν
και μας αφήνουν σαν έναν κόσμο απόβλητο
που αιωρείται για μια αιωνιότητα,
ο κόσμος, ρολοι που σταμάτησε

Ονειρεύτικα πως μπορούμε να αγαπηθούμε (κλπ)
ονειρεύτικα την λέξη "ΑΓΑΠΩ".....

If you've ever seen one of her videos or were lucky enough to see her in concert, you've noticed how her theatrics and costumes make her look enticing. She acts more like a performance artist than a singer sometimes and that in itself makes us believe she could be quite open-minded in the bedroom, especially according to her provocative dance moves. When you look at her career as a whole, she makes Madonna look like a kindergarten teacher.

y Alice, Alice
Maltec spider
My Alice, mischief
High-tech arachnid
My Alice, Alice
Hanging from her cobweb thread
Depressive artist

Exit, Exit
In your box
All your legs
The black-out

Little soul
How I miss you
How I miss you
How I miss you
Spider

Obsessed with the worst
And not very verbose
The least of my sighs
Turn metaphysical...
I have in my heaven
Tons of stars
Hanging on my wings...
And down falls the angel Gabriel!

Obsessed with the worst
A little too physical...
The desire to quiver
Is pharaonic!
Fed up with asceticism!
My life is wrapped in darkness
For me without the tongue
Wihtout sex I get weak!

Love is nothing!
When it's politically correct
You like one another
You don't even know when you hurt them
Love is nothing
When everything is sexually correct
You get bored
You yell for it to stop
Life is nothing
When it's lukewarm!
It consumes itself and shakes your blood
In cigarette ashes
Life is good...
It's made of honey!
When it's acid with dynamite
Those who love me, follow me!

Obsessed with the worst
And not very verbose
The least of my sighs
turn metaphysical...
I have in my head
Tons of pirouettes
The leap of the angel
doesn't seem strange to me

Obsessed with the worst
And not very verbose
To share my laughs
Rather plutonic
I have in my sphere
A greenhouse effect
My blood's boiling
I'm seething about everything

It's a beautiful day

Stretched out, the body is dead
For the thousands it's a man who sleeps
Half-filled is the amphora
It's half-empty that one, without effort, sees it
To look at life, its tail-side
Oh philosophy
Give me more elegies
Happiness, it scares me
Having so many desires
Me, I have a murmur in my heart
Also

It's a beautiful day
I'll go lie down
Such a beautiful day
That ends
Gives a yearning to love
But I'll go lie down
To bite eternity with all my teeth
It's a beautiful day
I'll go lie down
Such a beautiful day
Sovereign
Gives a yearning for peace
To see angels at my feet
But I'll go lie down
To make me beautiful

Stretched out, the body is dead
For the thousands it's a man who sleeps
Half-filled is the amphora
It's half-empty that I see it again
All is said as if in love
If it's heavy
If it's light-hearted
Elegies, always
Pleasures, long, short
Watch, love
I'm short on breath
Watch

Beautiful
Life is beautiful
Like a wing that shouldn't be crushed
Beautiful
Life is beautiful
And I'm going there
Beautiful
Life is beautiful
But mine
A world carried off
Into it I enter
And mortal, I leave

Coma des sexes, des styx, t'es statique
Coma des sexes, des styx, extatique
Coma des sexes, des styx, des, des statiques
Coma des sexes, des styx, esthetique

Coma of sexes, of the Styx, you're static
Coma of sexes, of the Styx, ecstatic
Coma of sexes, of the Styx, of, of statics
Come of sexes, of the Styx, aesthetic

So, a "Coma" is when you are living, but barely. You're unconscious to everything going on around to you normally, or at least you are unable to move and communicate with the world. You are like half dead, but half alive, simply because you cannot enjoy and use simple bodily functions. The sense that it is a Coma of the "Sexes," eg. Masculine and Feminine, suggests that there is a blurring between the two, that there is not much of a difference, and that the current state is a mix - not quite one, but not quite the other.

The theme of the living-but-dead "Coma" is further implied with a reference to the "Styx," which was the river which seperated the world of the living from the world of the dead in Ancient Greek Mythology. Once one died, s/he was required to cross the Styx in a boat. It's like how Christians believe in "Pergotary" or "Limbo." You're not quite one or the other. In this case, the "Styx" is the line between Life and Death, it seperates them, much like a "Coma," something inbetween Life and Death.

The word "Static" can be defined as "showing little or no change." Here, Mylène is calling the Coma "static," showing that it does not change.
"Ecstatic" means:
1. Of, pertaining to, or characterized by ecstasy.
2. Subject to or in a state of ecstasy; rapturous.
Which implies that she enjoys / loves this state of "limbo."
She now refers to it as a Coma of "statics," which when used as a noun can mean "difficulty" or "trouble."

In other words, while she enjoys this blurred state of being, it can still be problematic.

"Aesthetic" can mean:
2. Having a sense of the beautiful; characterized by a love of beauty.
3. Pertaining to, involving, or concerned with pure emotion and sensation as opposed to pure intellectuality.
Here, she's further pushing the fact that she finds this blurred state of being enjoyable or "beautiful," and that it is a state of emotion.

Dégénération
Ma génération

Degeneration
My generation

Generation has two meanings in english, so sorry for the long explanations on both.

"Degeneration" means the opposite of a generation - something is being deteriorated, and perhaps even in an abnormal sense. Perhap it is those gender issues, and the fact that she mentions her "generation" perhaps means that this "Degeneration" effect is due to her generation.
If that is true, "Generation" in that sense means:
1. The entire body of individuals born and living at about the same time: the postwar generation.
3. A group of individuals, most of whom are the same approximate age, having similar ideas, problems, attitudes, etc.
4. A group of individuals belonging to a specific category at the same time: Chaplin belonged to the generation of silent-screen stars.

In other words, her generation (people of a similar age) are either - in a degenerative state, or they are causing this degenerative state, ie with older people with "traditional" christian values who are against homosexuals, transsexuals, etc..

This, in a sense, is where Mylène seperates herself from her generation, in terms of opinions. She's made hints of being bi-sexual / lesbian before, in songs (ie Q.I) and she's open about her sexuality (Porno Graphique, Pourvu Qu'elles Soient Douces, Libertine etc).

But, this is where things become tricky. "Generation" can not only mean an era of human beings, but it can also mean the opposite - and positive form of "Degeneration," in a sense of something being created, or "generated."
If so, "Generation" can mean:

8. The act or process of generating; procreation.
9. The state of being generated.
10. Production by natural or artificial processes; evolution, as of heat or sound

So perhaps her personal "generation" of a human form, is caused from a "degeneration," ie -> she's growing as a person (generation) due to a degeneration.

Sexy Coma, Sexy Trauma

By referring to the Coma as "sexy," she's showing how it is attractive and how she likes it, likes living that way, etc. By referring to it as a "trauma," she shows how this "coma" damanges, how it hurts, or even "degenerates." A "trauma" is defined as:
1. Pathology.
a. A body wound or shock produced by sudden physical injury, as from violence or accident.
b. The condition produced by this; traumatism.

2. Psychiatry.
a. An experience that produces psychological injury or pain.
b. The psychological injury so caused.
Really, while one can enjoy this "Coma," it still produces a negative effect, an injury, and physical pain (most likely the scar/stitches on the cover of "Dégénération" single or even the Operation-type PV come from this).
Despite the pain, it can still by "sexy."

J'sais pas moi, mais faut qu'ça bouge
J'sais pas moi, mais faut qu'ça bouge
Suis coma là, mais il faut qu'ça bouge
J'sais pas moi, mais faut qu'ça bouge

I don't know, but it needs to move
I don't know, but it needs to move
Am a coma there, but it needs to move
I don't know, but it needs to move

Really, this is the most random part. It's not sung so perhaps this is due to the fact it is not very important, or that it is meant to be more like the mind, the conscience, something with sense's voice.

"J'sais pas moi" perhaps can be a reference to the fact she doesn't know what to do, though "bouge" relly throws me on this one. Times like these is when I regret not buying a French -> French dictionary.
"Bouge" most likely refers to some form of change, but this is completely contrary to the "Static" effect of the Coma that Mylène loves so much.
