Minimum Serious Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Regarde les mensonges à venir
Depuis le temps que l'on se teste
On pourrait se poser pour dire
"Il est grand temps, que tout cela cesse
Cette histoire là finira mal"
Qui sait demain, si l'on se presse
Refrain
Je passe et je repasse
Les moments d'un film à venir
Tu vois bien je n'ai fait que courir
Tu passes et je t'effaces
Comme un mauvais songe à venir
Pour toi moi je n'ai fait que courir
Depuis le temps que l'on se cherche
Il fallait se trouver pour voir
S'épauler se tendre une perche
Mais tout finit par se savoir
On aurait du prêter l'oreille
Aux amis qui nous veulent du bien
Rien ne se gagne mais tout se paye
C'est vrai qu'on connaissait la fin
Refrain x 2
(Merci à Keynah pour cettes paroles)
The lyrics of Minimum Serious's song "Violin" speak about the reflection over time, lies and relationships. The song's lyrics highlight a sense of urgency, as if time is running out, and the need to stop harmful behaviors before they cause irreparable damage. The first verse talks about the need to evaluate relationships and the potential negative effects of dishonesty. The lines "Regarde le temps, qu'il nous reste; Regarde les mensonges à venir" can be translated to "Look at the time we have left; Look at the lies to come." Here, the singer urgess the listener to take a step back and evaluate the situation before it gets worse.
The second verse is about missed opportunities for connection and mutual support. The lyrics "Il fallait se trouver pour voir; S'épauler se tendre une perche" can be translated to "We had to find each other to see; Support each other and lend a hand." This shows that the singer is aware of the missed opportunities for a deeper connection, and regrets not having done more to prevent future problems.
The chorus is a reflection on how relationships can be fleeting and how we often try to hold onto them. The lines "Je passe et je repasse; Les moments d'un film à venir; Tu passes et je t'effaces; Comme un mauvais songe à venir" can be translated to "I come and go; The moments of a coming film; You go and I erase you; Like a bad dream to come." This shows that the singer is aware of how relationships can come and go, and how they can be fleeting.
Overall, the song "Violin" speaks about the importance of reflection, connection, and the need to address issues before it gets worse. The song's lyrics remind us to value time and to take a step back to evaluate our relationships, while at the same time recognizing the fleeting nature of human connections.
