Un jour s'il fallait
S'enfuir de l'au-delà
Je m'installerais
Au numéro 23




Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Ghost Song" by Elisa Tovati express a desire to escape from this world into an unknown realm beyond the limits of death. The singer longs for a place to hide and settle down, far away from the mundane realities of life. She chooses the number 23 as her address, perhaps to suggest a sense of mystery or a nod to the esoteric significance attributed to the number in some subcultures.


The rest of the song continues in this vein of surreal imagery and enigmatic symbolism. The lyrics paint a picture of a haunted world where the living and the dead coexist, and where the boundaries between past and present, reality and illusion, and sanity and madness are blurred. The singer's voice, sometimes fragile and sometimes fierce, conveys a sense of fear, longing, and exaltation as she navigates this ghostly realm.


Overall, "Ghost Song" is a haunting, poetic meditation on the themes of mortality, identity, and the supernatural. Its dreamlike imagery and evocative language create a mesmerizing atmosphere that lingers in the mind long after the song is over.
