Origami
Dynah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
tout imaginé
tu pensais
suivre les pointillés
dessiner tous les plans
anticiper
dans ton petit monde
je suis un animal en papier
aucun risque, non
aucun danger
qu’est ce que tu crois?
je ne suis pas
de l’ORIGAMI
je ne plie pas
sous tes doigts
comme de l’ORIGAMI
ta vie
dans un code couleurs
tu voudrais que le monde pleure
quand tu te sens gris
quand tu n’es pas d’humeur
tu veux
de la symétrie
des réactions
géométriques
des angles nets
des formes qui se jettent
je vais tout renverser
dans ton petit musée
je vais tout piétiner
dans ce zoo en papier
In the song "Origami" by Dynah, the lyrics depict a person who has meticulously planned and structured their life, following a set path and anticipating every move. The imagery of following the dotted lines and drawing detailed plans symbolizes this controlled and organized way of living. The person's world is described as neat and tidy, like a perfectly folded paper animal in their little universe where everything is predictable and safe.
However, the singer disrupts this sense of order and predictability by asserting their own agency and individuality. They reject being treated like a piece of origami that can be easily manipulated or controlled. The comparison to origami highlights the person's desire to break free from the constraints and expectations placed upon them. They refuse to bend to the whims and desires of others, asserting their independence and autonomy.
The lyrics also delve into the contrast between the person's rigid, color-coded life and the singer's chaotic and unpredictable nature. The person seeks symmetry, uniformity, and calculated responses, wanting the world to conform to their expectations. They desire clear angles and structured forms, but the singer disrupts these patterns by promising to upend and trample over their carefully constructed world.
Ultimately, the narrative hints at a confrontation or clash between the person's ordered existence and the singer's disruptive presence. The promise to "renverser" (overturn) and "piétiner" (trample) everything in the person's small museum and paper zoo suggests a rebellion against conformity and a challenge to the status quo. The lyrics convey a message of resistance against being molded or controlled, urging the listener to embrace their true selves and break free from the confines of societal expectations.
