LIVE
France Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The capabilities I've lost along the way
But it shouldn't be this hard, to live so basic
Just drive along the road, you'll learn to embrace it
Oh you never wanna know
If the world hurt me so bad
Would you change how it runs
And I'd live the life I'd never have
When I go to sleep at night
Would I wake up in pain?
Or would things be kinda fine
Kinda fine
It's just one thing after another
Never find a time to stop and take
A breath, collect myself, the pain won't stop today
But it shouldn't be this hard, to live so basic
A spine just made of glass, no way to replace it
Oh you never wanna know
If the world hurt me so bad
Would you change how it runs
And I'd live the life I'd never have
Oh you never wanna know
When I go to sleep at night
Would I wake up in pain?
Or would things be kinda fine
Kinda fine
In France's song "Live," the lyrics delve into a contemplation of lost capabilities and the difficulty of living a simple, basic life. The singer reflects on the challenges they face and the pain they endure, questioning whether the world would change if it knew how much it hurt them. There is a sense of longing for a different life, one without the constant struggle and uncertainty.
The opening lines express the singer's tendency to dwell on the abilities they've lost throughout their journey. They acknowledge the hardships but highlight the desire for a life that is easier to navigate. The line "Just drive along the road, you'll learn to embrace it" suggests that despite the difficulties, there is a need to press on and find acceptance in the journey.
The chorus focuses on the singer's fear of being vulnerable and revealing their pain. They question whether others would intervene and change the world if they knew how much it hurt them. There is a yearning for a different reality, one in which they wouldn't wake up in pain every day.
In the second verse, the repetition of "It's just one thing after another" conveys the relentless nature of the challenges faced by the singer. They feel trapped and unable to find a moment of respite to catch their breath and collect themselves. The mention of having a spine made of glass emphasizes their fragility and the inability to find a replacement.

You see occasionally I find myself dwelling on
Sometimes, I catch myself thinking deeply about
The capabilities I've lost along the way
The skills and abilities I have lost over time
But it shouldn't be this hard, to live so basic
Living a simple life shouldn't be so difficult
Just drive along the road, you'll learn to embrace it
If you keep moving forward in life, you'll come to accept it
Oh you never wanna know
You never want to understand
If the world hurt me so bad
If the world has caused me so much pain
Would you change how it runs
Would you alter the way the world operates
And I'd live the life I'd never have
Then I could experience a life I've never had
When I go to sleep at night
At night, before I fall asleep
Would I wake up in pain?
Will I wake up feeling miserable?
Or would things be kinda fine
Or would everything be somewhat okay
It's just one thing after another
It feels like a constant flow of challenges
Never find a time to stop and take
I never find a moment to pause and
A breath, collect myself, the pain won't stop today
Take a breath, gather my thoughts, the suffering won't cease today
A spine just made of glass, no way to replace it
Having a fragile backbone, impossible to substitute
When I go to sleep at night
At night, before I fall asleep
Would I wake up in pain?
Will I wake up feeling miserable?
Or would things be kinda fine
Or would everything be somewhat okay

Prestation très émouvante ! Parole et démarche sincère, fier de notre message de tolérance français.

Le message de tolérance quelque soit la différence mise en avant est admirable. Faire danser une obèse passionnée par la discipline est admirable. Assumer ce que l'on est contre vents en marée l'est tout autant. Artistiquement, c'est très moyen et déja entendu. Après, j'avoue qu'un maghrébin gay "queer" qui va chanter la tolérance en Israel, ca me fascine à 100%. Bien joué.

Ame Universelle
Bilal Hassani est un jeune garçon courageux. Il a dépassé tous les préjugés, les menaces et les diverses malveillances auxquelles bien peu de personnes auraient résisté. Il a le mérite d'être allé au bout de ses convictions. Et que l'on partage ou pas son message, il a le droit au respect de son intégrité humaine comme tout un chacun. Sa prestation est très touchante car elle vient du coeur. Et je lui souhaite profondément le meilleur dans sa vie. Et je formule aussi le vœu que l'injuste harcèlement moral dont il est victime cesse. Fraternellement.
