Soleil
Butch & C. Vogt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
J'sais plus trop qui croire
J'ai peur d'me rappeler
C'que je peine à voir
J'ai grandi seul
Seul seul seul seul, seul
J'avais l'seum
Seum seum seum seum
Seul seul seul seul
Fardeau en bord de mer
J'avais l'seum
Seum seum seum seum
Chaque jour au bord des larmes
Je voulais l'sun
Sun sun sun sun
Pour moi tout seul
Seul seul
Oh le soleil
Qui s'reflète dans mes cheveux
Oh le soleil
Il s'élève dans les cieux
Oh le soleil
Est-ce que c'est ça être heureux!
Oh le soleil
Est-ce que c'est ça être heureux?
In Butch & C. Vogt's song "Soleil," the lyrics suggest a sense of confusion and uncertainty that the singer is grappling with. The opening lines, "J'sais plus comment j'm'appelle, J'sais plus trop qui croire" (I don't know my name anymore, I don't really know who to believe) reflect a state of disconnection and doubt. The singer is struggling to remember and understand things that are difficult to perceive clearly. There is a fear in remembering what they struggle to see.
The repetition of "J'ai grandi seul" (I grew up alone) emphasizes the sense of isolation and loneliness that the singer feels. The use of the word "seul" (alone) is echoed multiple times throughout the song, reinforcing this theme. It seems like the singer has dealt with their fair share of burdens, as indicated by the line "Fardeau en bord de mer" (Burden by the seaside). The term "seum" in the lyrics is a slang term in French, meaning anger or frustration. It signifies the singer's frustration and resentment as they grew up alone, carrying their burdens.
However, amidst the struggle and pain, there is a longing for something brighter and happier. The repetition of "Sun sun sun sun" suggests a yearning for sunshine, for something positive in their life. They desire the sun, symbolizing happiness and warmth. The questioning of whether the sun is what it means to be happy suggests an introspective search for purpose and fulfillment.
Overall, "Soleil" delves into themes of confusion, loneliness, and the search for happiness. The lyrics portray a journey of introspection and self-discovery, as the singer grapples with their identity and desires for something brighter in their life.
