Tranquille
Louane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Engin diabolique
Pantin maléfique
Est venue l'heure qu'on lui donne un cœur

Les clous dans ses reins
Et le bois de ses mains
Vont s'animer
Vont s'articuler

Laisse moi tranquille
Laisse moi tranquille, j'ai
J'aimerais qu'il
Me laisse tranquille

Laisse moi tranquille
Laisse moi tranquille, j'ai
J'aimerais qu'il
Perde le fil

Le vent sans ses veines
Le délit de ses chaînes
Et tôt ou tard
Il prendra le pouvoir

Ses cheveux de soie
Et sa bouche de bois
Déposera un baiser sur moi

Laisse moi tranquille
Laisse moi tranquille, j'ai
J'aimerais qu'il
Me laisse tranquille

Laisse moi tranquille
Laisse moi tranquille, j'ai
J'aimerais qu'il
Perde le fil

Je sens qu'il manipule
Sur un fil funambule
Sa vie, sa vie

Hm
Hm
Laisse moi tranquille
Laisse moi tranquille, j'ai
J'aimerais qu'il
Perde le fil

Laisse moi tranquille
Laisse moi tranquille, j'ai




J'aimerais qu'il
Dénoue les fils

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Louane's song "Tranquille" talk about a seemingly diabolical and maleficent figure who has been given a heart. This figure's body is made up of nails and wood, but it begins to animate and articulate. The singer of the song begs to be left alone and desires for this maleficent figure to lose control and power. The figure's power is described as being linked to the wind and chains. Finally, the song touches upon the delicate balance in the figure's life that feels like it's walking on a tightrope, and the singer asks for the figure to untangle its life.


At first glance, the song's lyrics may seem abstract and difficult to understand. However, they can be interpreted as a conversation with the darker parts of one's consciousness. The maleficent figure can represent a person's fears, doubts, and negative thoughts that seem to take on a life of their own. The singer's desire for the figure to lose control can be seen as a desire to be free from the burdens of anxiety and negative self-talk.


Overall, Louane's "Tranquille" is a haunting and evocative song that takes the listener on an introspective journey into the darker parts of the mind.
