À quoi je joue
À quoi je joue

Je joue de la guitare
La solitude parfois est immense
Tout plutôt que d'être ce passant qui traverse le temps
De temps en temps
Alors je part à la dérive
Mon lit est un navire
Un atelier où je vais pour l'éternité
Voyageur d'un instant présent
Je ne sais pourquoi je suis si triste
J'aimerais appeler quelqu'un, mais qui Dieu
Je me sens seul
Viens je viens, tout m'isole

À quoi je joue
Je joue de la guitare

Je sens que j'hallucine
Et j'ai peur de partir comme un fou vers la mort
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucididididi
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidididididididi
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidididité
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidididité
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it yeah (4 fois)

Choisir entre tous les gens qui m'entourent
Comment faire une telle preuve d'amour
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it yeah
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it yeah
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucididididi (7 fois)

Je joue de la guitare
Je joue de la guitare

Faisait pas beau dehors
And she wasn't a whore
Rêvait de pardonner, cherchait à discuter
Peut-être qu'elle avait le sida
Peut-être qu'elle le disait pas
Comme la neige a neigé
Ma vitre est un jardin givré
Tout l'ennui que j'ai, que j'ai, que j'ai
Pleurez oiseaux de février
tous les étangs gisent gelés, gelés, gelés

Fuck the system do it, do it, do it yeah
Choisir entre tous les gens qui m'entourent
Comment faire une telle preuve d'amour
À quoi je joue, je joue de la guetare
À quoi je joue, je joue de la guetare

Je sens que j'hallucine
Et j'ai peur de partir comme un fou vers la mort
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidité
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidité
Il y a il y a les sirènes qui chantent, qui chantent chantent les marées
Il y a il y a les sirènes qui chantent, qui chantent chantent les noyés
Vers les îles, vers les îles

C'est le temps d'embrasser les fleurs de cimetière
C'est le temps de mourir
À la guerre comme à la guerre
C'est le temps de partir
Faisait pas beau dehors
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it
À la guerre comme à la guerre
Dans son silence, un poisson-lune
Philosophait au fond des brumes
Mais jamais Nemo ne saura
Les noires pensées du poisson-chat

Les sous-marins se font la guerre
Sous les tropiques du cancer
Mais jamais Nemo ne saura
Les noires pensées du poisson-chat
Mais jamais Nemo ne saura
Les noires pensées du poisson-chat
Choisir entre tous les gens qui m'entourent
Comment faire une telle preuve d'amour, d'amour, d'amour
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it, do it yeah
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it, do it yeah

Je sens que j'hallucine
Et j'ai peur de partir comme un fou vers la mort
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidité
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidité
Et j'ai des grands instants de lucidité
Choisir entre tous les gens qui m'entourent
Comment faire une telle preuve d'amour
Fuck the system do it, do it, do it yeah
Fuck the system
Je joue de la guetare

    We think it is a commentary on his life as a rock-star. He can't trust those around him, those who scavenge on his fame, those who would infect him with disease .. to some extent he can't stay away from it because they are his 'existance' but occasionally (perhaps when he is back at home with family) he has moments of lucidity where he sees how wrong that is and how the others use him ... ???

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
