Etienne de Crécy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take us so far
Broken down cars
Like strung-out old stars
Plain talking
Served us so well
Traveled through hell
We know how it felt
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Plain talking
Making us bold
So strong out and cold
Feeling so old
Plain talking
Has ruined us now
You never know how
Sweeter than thou
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
Lift me up, lift me up
Higher now
The lyrics to Étienne de Crécy's song "PUNK" depict a contrast between the power of straightforward, honest communication ("plain talking") and its potential drawbacks. The first verse acknowledges that plain talking has taken them far, allowing them to navigate difficult situations ("traveled through hell") and understand the intensity of those experiences ("we know how it felt"). It suggests that plain talking has been reliable and beneficial, like a broken-down car that still manages to shine like old stars.
However, in the second verse, the tone shifts. Plain talking is now described as making them bold and resilient, but also leaving them feeling worn out, cold, and aged. It implies that the power of plain talking has been exhausted, and its straightforward nature has ruined them in some way. The line "sweeter than thou" suggests that some egotism or superiority may have crept in, tarnishing the purity of their communication.
The repeated refrain of "lift me up, lift me up, higher now" can be interpreted as a plea for elevation and a desire to rise above the limitations of plain talking. It signifies a longing for something greater, perhaps a transformative experience or a new form of communication that transcends the worn-out path they have been following.
Overall, the lyrics of "PUNK" convey a sense of reflection on the power and limitations of plain talking, which has served them well but also taken its toll. It explores the complexities of human communication and the need for growth and evolution beyond established patterns.
