Gjon's tears Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sa main sur mon épaule
Le vide dans ma tête
Pas la moindre cachette
C'est l'aube qui décline
Derrière un champ de ruines
Le moment de grandir
Je vois derrière nous des morceaux de toi
Et ce que la douleur a fait de moi
Tout l'univers
Nos deux cœurs sous la terre
Au milieu des failles, tout éclate
Se trouver un point d'impact
Sans toi
Que deviendront souffles
S'ils restent sur le bord?
Cet amour qui nous tord
Je vois derrière nous des morceaux de toi
Et ce que la douleur a fait de moi
Tout l'univers
Nos deux cœurs sous la terre
Au milieu des failles tout éclate
Se trouver un point d'impact
Sans toi
Derrière mes paupières
Trouver de l'air
(Aah) tout l'univers
Nos deux cœurs sous la terre
Au milieu des failles, des ressacs
Nous nous retrouvons au point d'impact
Comment soigner nos cœurs qui éclatent?
Tout l'univers
The lyrics of Tout L'univers by Gjon's Tears express the pain of losing someone and the struggle to cope with the aftermath of the loss. The song opens with the line "Laissez le vent qui frôle, Sa main sur mon épaule" which translates to "Let the wind that brushes, his hand on my shoulder". The wind symbolizes the presence of the person who has passed away, and the singer acknowledges that they can feel their presence in small ways. The lyrics then move on to describe the emptiness that the singer feels in their head and the absence of any hiding place from their pain.
The following verses speak of the sunrise illuminating ruins and the need to move forward and not hold back. The lines "Je vois derrière nous des morceaux de toi, Et ce que la douleur a fait de moi" (I see behind us pieces of you, And what the pain has made of me) express the lasting impact of grief and the aftermath of the loss. The chorus repeats the phrase "Tout l'univers" (All the universe) and speaks of the two hearts being buried under the ground and struggling to find a point of impact, without the person they lost. The song ends with a plea to find air behind closed eyelids and the repeated question, "Comment soigner nos cœurs qui éclatent?" (How to heal our hearts that are shattering?).
Overall, Tout L'univers is a beautifully poetic and emotional song that captures the depth of pain that comes with losing someone close. It speaks to the overwhelming grief and the struggle to find a way to move forward, finding a point of impact in a world that feels shattered without the person who has passed.

The emptiness in my head Not the slightest hiding place
C'est l'aube qui décline Derrière un champ de ruines Le moment de grandir Ne pas te retenir
It's the dawn that declines Behind a field of ruins The moment to grow up Not holding you back

What will become of breaths If they stay on the edge? This love that twists us

Behind my eyelids Finding air

Let the wind brush
His hand over my shoulder
The void in my head
Not a single place to hide
The dawn is fading
Behind a field of ruins
It’s time to grow up
Don’t hold yourself back
I see pieces of you behind us
And I see what pain has made of me
The whole universe
Our two hearts under the ground
At the center of the rifts where everything explodes
Being at the point of impact
Without you
What will happen to our breaths
If they stay on the shore?
This love that wrings us out
I see pieces of you behind us
And I see what pain has made of me
The whole universe
Our two hearts under the ground
At the center of the rifts where everything explodes
Being at the point of impact
Without you
Behind my eyelids
Get some air
Our two hearts under the ground
At the center of the rifts and the aftershocks
We will meet at the point of impact
How can we heal our exploding hearts
The whole universe

An extremely difficult song to sing - technically and sentimentally. Gjon is a true artist with a promising career.
