Sublime & silence
Julien Doré Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sublime & silence
Autour de moi tu danses
Et moi j'oublie
C'est à toi que je pense,
À ta bouche brûlante
Quand tu souris

Le vide aurait suffi
Le vide aurait suffi

Sublime & silence
Autour de toi tout tremble
Et tout finit
C'est à moi que tu penses
À nos ivresses blanches
Je fuis Paris

Le vide aurait suffi
Le vide aurait suffi

Mais je sais que tu restes
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
Après la nuit
Violence et promesse
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
La mort aussi

Le vide aurait suffi
Le vide aurait suffi

Je caresse ton absence
La montagne et l'errance
Et puis l'ennui

La rivière te ressemble
Au moins en apparence
Pourtant tu fuis

Le vide aurait suffi
Le vide aurait suffi

Mais je sais que tu restes
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
Après la nuit
Violence et promesse
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
La mort aussi

Le vide aurait suffi
Le vide aurait suffi

Mais je sais que tu restes
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
Après la nuit
Violence et promesse
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
La mort aussi

Mais je sais que tu restes





Mais je sais que tu restes

Overall Meaning

The French singer Julien Doré's song "Sublime & silence" is a ballad that explores the complicated nature of a relationship that has come to an end. The song is full of intricate emotions and a sense of longing for something that is no longer there. The lyrics describe the two people in the relationship, each with their own inner turmoil, trying to make sense of the situation.


The opening lines of the song, "Sublime & silence, autour de moi tu danses, et moi j'oublie, c'est à toi que je pense," describe the scene of the two people in the relationship dancing around each other, with one person lost in the moment, and the other person lost in thought about their former partner. The phrase "sublime & silence" suggests that even though the relationship has ended, there is something beautiful and peaceful about the way they interact with each other, even just in passing.


The lyrics also touch on the idea of absence, with the lines "je caresse ton absence, la montagne et l'errance, et puis l'ennui." This suggests that while one person may physically be out of the other person's life, they are still very much present in their thoughts and memories. The use of imagery, such as the mountain and the river, adds a sense of distance and a feeling of being lost or wandering, amplifying the sense of longing that runs throughout the song.


Overall, "Sublime & silence" is a thoughtful reflection on the aftermath of a romantic relationship. It captures the complicated emotions of longing, sadness, and acceptance that come with the end of a significant connection.
