Dans tes yeux
Les Charts Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tout est en train de s'écrouler
Et moi je ne peux m'élever
Contre les dangers de la vie
Jamais personne ne pense à moi
Comme toutes ces guerres à la télé
Images et mots qui m'ont blessé
Qui resteront toute ma vie
Gravés en moi tatoués sur moi

Personne ne comprend mon malheur
Car personne n'a su me laisser
Trace de douceur, trace de chaleur
Quand la folie m'envahit
Je ne peux plus lutter, je vois ma vie défiler
Sans pouvoir l'arrêter
Mais dans tes yeux, j'oublie ceux
Qui m'ont toujours trahi, je vois des larmes couler
Et des cœurs se déchirer

Ainsi je me laisse dériver
Isolé comme prisonnier
Devant les dangers de la vie
J'ai peur de tout j'ai peur de moi
Et si j'aime autant m'évader
Si je perds mon temps à rêver
A m'imaginer d'autres vies
D'autres gens qui soient comme moi

Personne ne comprend mon malheur
Car personne n'a su me laisser
Trace de douceur, trace de chaleur
Quand la folie m'envahit
Je ne peux plus lutter, je vois ma vie défiler
Sans pouvoir l'arrêter
Mais dans tes yeux, j'oublie ceux




Qui m'ont toujours trahi, je vois des larmes couler
Et des cœurs se déchirer

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Les Charts’s song “Dans tes yeux” immediately express feelings of hopelessness and powerlessness. The singer says that everything is falling apart and they are unable to lift themselves up against the dangers of life. They feel as though no one thinks of them, and they are hurt by the wars and images they see on television. These traumas are engraved on their soul like a tattoo, and they carry them everywhere they go. The singer laments that no one seems to understand their pain, as no one has shown them any kindness or warmth when they were struggling with mental health issues. The chorus reveals the one source of refuge in their life: the eyes of someone important to them. In their eyes, the singer forgets everyone who has betrayed them and sees tears falling and hearts breaking.


The second verse paints a picture of isolation and fear. The singer is imprisoned by their own anxiety and cannot trust anyone, including themselves. They have a tendency to daydream and fantasize about a better life where they belong to a community of people who understand what they are going through. However, no one understands their unique situation, and they continue to suffer in silence. The second chorus repeats the same sentiment: no one has shown them the comfort and reassurance they need, except for one person whose tears and heartbreak help them forget their own troubles.


“Dans tes yeux” is a song that speaks to the universal human need for connection and understanding. The lyrics relay the vulnerability of the human spirit and the importance of having a support system in times of crisis. The chorus is an emotional high point in the song, showing that even though the world can be a harsh and unforgiving place, there are still moments of tenderness and compassion that can make it all worth living for.
