Nazebroke
Adrienne Pauly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dans ma tête ça fait « toc-toc », je note
J'suis belle, j' suis classe
Mais dans l' fond, y'a une masse
T'es cool, t'es classe
Dans la glace, je m'embrasse
T'es flou, t'es toc
C'est toi le nazebroke, toi le naze
C'est toi mon cauchemar de base
Sur mon pouf du Maroc
C'est lui qui revient, il m' bloque
Ce d?mon qui m' d?traque
Et me fout en vrac
Devant la t?l? qui s'allume sans moi
J'me touche, j'me t?te mais pourquoi j 'me sens si loque
T'es vase, t'es vioque
Dans ta t?te ?a fait « floc floc », tu flottes
T'es sport au fond
Mais dans l' fond, t'es mort
C'est moi le nazebroke, moi le naze
C'est moi ton cauchemar de base
Sur mon tr?ne du p?tard
J'me fume un p'tit Maroc
Sur mon c?ne comme une ouf, moi la pouffe
Mais dans mon brouillard embrouillé ça m'fout un choc
Toute cette connerie qui pousse, dans ma t?te je dis « pouce »
Regard déchiré teint blafard
Pyjama rayé sourire hagard
Nazebroke
Avec ta clope et tes lunettes
Nazebroke
T'es là, tu fumes, tu végètes
Nazebroke
Mais pourquoi j'me sens si...
Nazebroke
Où t'es-tu évanoui
J'suis bloc j 'suis note
Dans mon carnet, j'notes mes idées noires
J'suis star au fond
Mais dans l' fond j' me fais rare
C'est toi le nazebroke, toi le naze
Dans ma tête j'entends des voix
C'est toi le nazebroke, toi l'écrase
C'est toi le cauchemar... connard!
The lyrics of Adrienne Pauly's song Nazebroke illustrate the feeling of being lost, confused, and struggling with oneself. The singer starts by describing herself as "naze" and "broc" which mean exhausted and broken. She notes that she may appear beautiful and classy, but underneath all that, there is a mess. The lyrics go on to describe the feeling of being disconnected from reality, represented by the demon who keeps returning and causing chaos in the singer's life. The demon may symbolize her fears, doubts, or simply her own identity crisis. Adrienne Pauly then compares herself to the person she sings to and labels them as the "nazebroke," her basic nightmare. In the end, she acknowledges her struggle with mental health issues while trying to cope by smoking and escaping her reality.
The song reflects many features of modern-day society, such as disconnection and insecurities that make people feel like outsiders, struggling to find their identity. The title, Nazebroke, is a play on words combining the terms "naze" and "broke" to describe the feeling of being mentally or emotionally broken. The lyrics and melody of the song bring out the raw and emotional connection that often comes with genres like pop-punk rock, which Adrienne Pauly identifies with. Such songs also find their way into expressing complex issues and struggles with oneself and the world, making them relatable to listeners dealing with the same.

Messed up one
Avec ta clope et tes lunettes
With your cigarette and your glasses
T'es là, tu fumes, tu végètes
You're there, you smoke, you vegetate
Mais pourquoi j'me sens si...
But why do I feel so...

Messed up one
Où t'es-tu évanoui

I hear voices in my head
C'est toi le nazebroke, toi l'écrase
You are the messed up one, you are the oppressor
C'est toi le cauchemar... connard!
You are the nightmare... jerk!
