In 2007, Elsiane launched its first album, Hybrid, which was very well received by the public and the media. The aerial and bewitching opus led the band to tour with Delerium and Beast, as well as to play the Montreal International Jazz Festival, the Toronto International Film Festival, Osheaga and M for Montreal. These performances were a real consecration for Elsiane, which attracted many faithful fans with its stupefying shows, combining stunning visual and audio elements for an evocative, hypnotizing experience. After the buzz surrounding Hybrid, Elsiane has withdrawn to write new songs and to collaborate with Olivier Dufour for the Quebec City 400th anniversary main event soundtrack. The band also worked with Booka Shade, Delerium and performed for the Cirque du Soleil show, Le Royaume de Tôle.
Five years after releasing Hybrid, the duo finally presents its second opus, Mechanics of Emotion. Less dark than the first record, but preserving the hooking melodies and complex arrangements, this album is a true renaissance for the duo. The band self-produced this 11 track album of organic pop, with the collaboration of sound-engineer Rob Heaney (Patrick Watson, Cirque du Soleil).
Paranoia
Elsiane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a hell of a world, this is all inside
It's always growing inside of me
Come enter the world in where I'm falling
It's a hell of a world this is all in silence
It's always growing Inside of me
It's time to be here alone
It's time to be healing all of the hurting
Living in a crisis of a paranoia
Come realize that this world is slowly falling
I've began to say my words this is all in silence
It's always growing inside of me
Is the blame on you? is the blame on me?
Why don't I stay in my own? Struggling
Filling the hole that's through my life
It's always been Just lingering
Filling the hole that's through this life
It's time to be here alone
It's time to be healing all of the hurting
It's fine to be here alone
Living in a crisis of a paranoia
I'll stay in my own? Struggling
Filling the hole that's through my life
It's always been Just lingering
Filling the hole that's through this life
It's always been just lingering
Filling the hole that's through this life
Living in a crisis of a paranoia
In Elsiane's song Paranoia, the lyrics express a deep sense of isolation and torment within oneself. The opening lines invite the listener to enter the singer's world, which is described as a "hell" and a place of constant growth and turmoil. The following lines suggest that the singer is falling deeper into this internal world, and it is a place of silence, where no one else can understand the pain they are experiencing.
The chorus brings a sense of acceptance to this state of being alone and in pain. It is seen as necessary for healing the hurt that has accumulated inside. The lyrics then question who is to blame for this internal crisis, the singer or someone else. However, the struggle to fill the void that exists inside is all-consuming, and it is simply lingering in the background of their life. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus and the final statement of living in a crisis of paranoia.
Overall, the lyrics of Paranoia convey a sense of intense emotional pain that is not easily understood by the outside world. The internal struggles that are taking place are consuming and difficult to shake, leading to a deep sense of isolation and paranoia. The repetitive nature of the lyrics further emphasizes the idea of being trapped in this state of mind, with no clear resolution in sight.
