Samir Barris - "Thou files"
From the album Try trump (2010)

A fear a wave anguish
You run away c 'I was tired
One week I do not see you And now

A feeling hateful
That tells me a story Tell me
a setback

Surely you do not want me to you lack
You walk away you're hideouts
And I implore Nice shot at knees

You're the one who will act on
And you have found the right word EXIT Four letters

Well done

You queues at the English
And I do not displease
Se are Our paths parted
At the farewell
You did your best
So I do not notice anything

I wanted you loving me From one
bedsheet to shroud
But the sheets are all that remains for me

nice gesture I'm looking for an omen sign
As pitiful Ratag
But nothing had been warned
While You

files in English
And I do displease
parted our ways
At the farewell
You did your best
And I stayed amazed

I'm turning around

Since You Went Too hard not to gloat You gotta know
my hats off state

I thought to finish your place
And this idea is I am
ice that remains on the tile

Bravo

You queues at the English
And I do displeases Our
paths parted
In the last hours
You were the best
Force is to bow

Samir Barris - "I long" Taken from the album
Tenter l'Atout (2010)

A fear, a vague anxiety
You run, you get tired
A week ago I do not see
That is detestable

What a feeling I have a fable
Be told a setback
sure is that
not want to miss me
you go, you hide
And I implore you knees hit
're Beautiful
the action happens
And you found the word EXIT Four letters
exact


Well I played the French
long I do not feel at ease
our paths have been separated
At the time of farewells
You did everything you could
Lest I realized I wanted nothing

loved me only me
From bedding to shroud
And the sheets are all that I have nice detail

Seeking a Sign an omen,
The unfortunate failure
But nothing had warned me


Well I saw the French
long I do not feel at ease
our paths have been separated
At the time of farewells
You did everything you could
And I was as I deceived

to and fro

Since you left it too hard not knowing
You have to be happy with my state
Hats
thought it would end up in your place
And this idea
freezes me I'm the one who stays
Severely wounded
Bravo

I long to French
I do not feel at ease
Our paths have separated
During the last hours You were the best

The force I have to lean
