La claque
Margaux Avril Lyrics

In "La claque" by Margaux Avril, she sings about embarking on a journey to find an ideal while experiencing the highs and lows of life. The lyrics "Je trace la route et j'embarque des rires des pleurs et des claques" ("I trace the road and I embark on laughs, tears, and slaps") imply that the journey is not an easy one and is full of surprises both positive and negative.

She also deals with a sense of regret, acknowledging that the person she disagrees with may have been right and that distance may have already separated them. This is shown in the line "J'exprime un peu de remord tu n'avais pas toujours tord / Mais trop de kilomètres nous sépare déjà peut être" ("I express a little remorse, you were not always wrong / But too many kilometers may have already separated us").

The chorus shows the singer's vulnerability and fear of emptiness, "Je fuis comme un bolide le cœur pas très solide / Quand vient la peur du vide" ("I flee like a racing car with a brave heart / When the fear of emptiness comes"). Despite this, she admits that she tends to come back strong just like a slap, using the metaphor "C'est comme ça je reviens comme une claque" ("That's how I come back, like a slap").

Overall, the lyrics of "La claque" present an abstract concept of life's journey where one faces highs and lows, insecurities, regrets, and a sense of self-awareness.
