Chez Moi
Elodie Frégé Lyrics

The lyrics of Elodie Frégé's song Chez moi express the longing to reveal one's deepest emotions and vulnerabilities. The song is about the difficulty of expressing those emotions to someone who matters, and the fear of being judged or rejected. The opening lines, "Pour vous le dire, Il eut suffit, De quelques silences Étreints sur le cœur Berçant l'aveu Presque une indécence," translate to "To tell you, It would have been enough, A few silences, Hugged on the heart, Rocking the confession, Almost an indecency." These lines suggest that words are not enough to express the emotions and that it would be easier to communicate through silence, but the fear of being vulnerable makes it difficult to do so.

The lyrics also express the regret of not saying what one feels when they had the chance to. The lines, "Si j'avais su, J'aurais osé, Poser en poussière, Ces mots sur le front, Des envolées, Je n'ai su que me taire," translate to "If I had known, I would have dared, To put these words, Like dust on the forehead, Of the soaring, I knew only how to keep quiet." These lines suggest the missed opportunity to express one's feelings and the frustration of not being able to do so. The song ultimately expresses a desire for the listener to enter the singer's world, without fear or hesitation, to acknowledge and accept the emotions that are felt.
