Lost

Noir Désir

Pourras-tu le faire? I'm lost
Pourras-tu le dire? I'm lost
Tu dois tout essayer, I'm lost
Tu dois devenir, I'm lost

Tu dois voir plus loin, I'm lost
Tu dois revenir, I'm lost
Egaré en chemin, I'm lost
Tu verras le pire, I'm lost

Pour trouver le sud, I'm lost
Sans perdre le nord, I'm lost
Après les certitudes, I'm lost
Au-delà des bords

I'm lost but I'm not stranded yet
Lost but I'm not stranded

Dans les yeux des femmes, I'm lost
Dans la marie-jeanne, I'm lost
Dans la techno-cité, I'm lost
Pour manipulés, I'm lost

Grand combat de chairs, I'm lost
Colline enflammée, I'm lost
Dans l'ombre ou la lumière, I'm lost
Pôle halluciné, I'm lost

Pour courir ventre à terre, I'm lost
Brouillard et fumée, I'm lost
Consommer consumer, I'm lost
Recracher de l'air, I'm lost

Dans le dérisoire, I'm lost
Dans les accessoires, I'm lost
Dans le feu des possibles, I'm lost
Au cœur de la cible, I'm lost

Dans la paranoïa, I'm lost
Dans la schizophrénia, I'm lost
Un maniac opéra, I'm lost
Pharmacopérave

I'm lost but I'm not stranded yet
Lost but I'm not stranded yet

Entre les dérapages
Entre les lignes d'orages
Entre temps, entre nous
Et entre chien et loup
Au maximum du voltage
À peine est passé le message
Au fil du rasoir

Encore une fois c'est la vie qui s'entête
Acharnée au-delà des images qu'on reflète
Chacal, charogne, chaman, sachem
Magie noire ou blanche inscrite à la sacem

Des poumons d'or
Belphégor
Ici, maintenant, à la vie, à la mort
N'oublie pas ton sourire pour ce soir si tu sors
Un jury t'attend n'injurie pas le sort

Entre les dérapages
Entre les lignes d'orages
Entre temps, entre nous
Et entre chien et loup
Au maximum du voltage
À peine est passé le message
Au fil du rasoir

Dans les corridors, I'm lost
Sur les baies vitrées, I'm lost
Des insectes écrasés, I'm lost
Qui cherchaient de l'or, I'm lost

Dans les ministères, I'm lost
Dans les monastères, I'm lost
Dans les avalanches, I'm lost
Au bout de la planche, I'm lost

Des combats d'autorité, I'm lost
Des conflits d'intérêts, I'm lost
Des types ignifugés, I'm lost
Veulent ma fusée, I'm lost

Des désenchanteurs, I'm lost
Un train à quelle heure? I'm lost
Des pirates, des corsaires, I'm lost
Sans aucun repaire, I'm lost

Tu dois voir plus loin, I'm lost
Tu dois revenir, I'm lost
Tu dois tout essayer, I'm lost
Tu dois devenir, I'm lost

I'm lost but I'm not stranded yet
I'm lost but I'm not stranded

    even though i only get the "i'm lost but i'm not stranded yet..." part, i'm dying for it. this is music, you know. it's a language by itself. you don't need to understand all the words to like a song. and this song is really great....

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
