Hippocampe Fou - Mes Échecs (English Translation) Lyrics[Intro] (x4)
My failures, my failures, my failures, failures

[Verse 1]
I was black, she was white
In that story I was just a pawn, it's very strange
But I thought of her as my queen
As long as I saw her far away, I kept my calm
I wished I could ask her out for a walk
Even if that was not so chivalrous
I wanted to take her to the top of the infernal tower
And go from vertical to horizontal

[Bridge]
Looking for the ecstasy in that square world
Sixty-four squares to meet each other

[Verse 2]
She was married to the king of fraud
In his pockets : coins, bad checks
Protective, she didn’t want anyone to check him out
He lived hidden, walked only in small steps
He had fallen for a Black drag queen
And dreamed of her pulling the ol’ German Shepherd move on him
Anyway, some hard stuff, but he stayed away
And didn't talk about it to his wife, obviously

[Bridge]
Looking for the ecstasy in that square world
Sixty-four squares to meet each other

[Chorus 1]
They say chess games repeat, but never look the same
In the end, I’ll take that queen, or she’ll be the one to take me
They say chess games repeat, but never look the same
In the end, I’ll take that queen, or she’ll be the one to take me

[Verse 3]
Me, as a pawn
I shifted from dark thoughts to white words in conversation
But I had big ambitions
To be with my queen, enter her kingdom and change for good
But that day, she wasn't in the mood
She was reading the news diagonally
She didn’t see that dark bishop coming, the one who took her down
She ended up lying in a pale box
No one ever heard her husband complain
My beloved disappeared, I’ll never see her rise again
But I walk on, head held high, I’ve got nothing left to fear
If I leave this board, maybe I’ll find her again

[Bridge]
Looking for the ecstasy in that square world
Sixty-four squares to meet each other

[Chorus 2]
They say chess games repeat, but never look the same
In the end, I’ll take that queen, or she’ll be the one to take me
They say chess games repeat, but never look the same
In the end, I’ll take that queen, I hope she'll wait for me
