The Sleeping Sickness (La maladie du sommeil)

Sleeping Sickness

I awoke, Only to find my lungs empty
Through the night, so it seems i'm not breathing.
And now my dreams are nothing
Like what they were meant to be
And i'm breaking down
I think i'm breaking down

I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunt me
Such as, living with the uncertainty,
That i'll never find the words to say,
Which would completely explain
Just how i'm breaking down

Someone come save my life
Maybe i'll sleep when i am dead but now
It's like the night is taking sides
With all the worries that occupy
The back of my mind,
Could it be this misery will suffice ?

I've become a simple souvenir of someone's kill
And like the sea, i'm constantly changing from calm to ill.
Madness fills my heart and soul,
As if the great divide could swallow me whole
Ah i'm breaking down

Someone come save my life
Maybe i'll sleep when i am dead but now
It's like the night is taking sides
With all the worries that occupy
The back of my mind,
Could it be this misery will suffice ?

Sleeping Sickness
Je me reveillais,

Seulement pour trouver mes poumons vident,
I awoke, Only to find my lungs empty
À travers la nuit, alors il semble que je ne respirais pas.
Through the night, so it seems i'm not breathing.
Et maintenant, mes rêves ne sont rien
And now my dreams are nothing
De ce qu'il étaient censés être,
Like what they were meant to be
Et je suis brisé
And i'm breaking down
Je pense que je suis brisé
I think i'm breaking down

J'ai peur de dormir à cause de ce qui me hante,
I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunt me
Comme, vivre avec l'incertitude
Such as, living with the uncertainty,
Que je ne trouverais jamais les mots pour dire,
That i'll never find the words to say,
Ceux qui expliqueraient complètement,
Which would completely explain
À quel point je suis brisé.
Just how i'm breaking down

Quelqu'un, venez me sauvez la vie
Someone come save my life
Peut-être que je dormirai lorsque je serai mort
Maybe i'll sleep when i am dead but now
Mais maintenant,
It's like the night is taking sides
C'est comme si la nuit prenait part
With all the worries that occupy
à tout les soucis qui occupent l'arrière de ma penser
The back of my mind,
Est-ce-que cette misère suffira ?
Could it be this misery will suffice ?

Je suis devenu un simple souvenir de quelqu'un qui à été tué
I've become a simple souvenir of someone's kill
Et comme la mer, Je change constament de calme à malade
And like the sea, i'm constantly changing from calm to ill.
La folie remplie mon coeur et mon âme
Madness fills my heart and soul,
Comme si la grande division pouvait m'avaler tout entier
As if the great divide could swallow me whole
Oh ! À quel point je suis brisé
Ah i'm breaking down

Quelqu'un, venez me sauvez la vie
Someone come save my life
Peut-être que je dormirai lorsque je serai mort
Maybe i'll sleep when i am dead but now
Mais maintenant,
It's like the night is taking sides
C'est comme si la nuit prenait part
With all the worries that occupy
à tout les soucis qui occupent l'arrière de ma penser
The back of my mind,
Est-ce-que cette misère suffira ?
Could it be this misery will suffice ?
