Pretty Day
Marie Möör Lyrics

The lyrics of Marie Möör's song "Pretty Day" revolve around the idea of the beauty in death. The first line "Mes yeux bleus dans tes yeux noirs" ("My blue eyes in your black eyes") highlights the contrast between life and death, where the blue eyes represent life and black eyes represent death. The following line "C'est un beau jour pour mourir" ("It's a beautiful day to die") is a statement that can be interpreted in two ways. Firstly, it could be taken literally as a beautiful day to die. Secondly, it could be interpreted as a metaphor for letting go of something that is no longer serving us, and embracing a new beginning, in essence, dying to the old self.

The lines "Ni espoir ni désespoir" ("Neither hope nor despair") suggest that the ending of something could bring about a sense of neutrality or indifference. The final two lines "Si on s'aime pas qui nous aimera" ("If we don't love ourselves, who will love us") reveal that it's important to love oneself before anyone else can love us. The song as a whole could be perceived as a reminder that endings are necessary for beginnings and that sometimes we have to die to our old selves to become who we truly are.
