Coeur De Pierre
NACH Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mon corps est froid, mon cœur a peur
Si loin déjà des jolies heures
Mon ami, le plus grand, s'en va
Il s'enfuit, comme le vent au-delà

J'entends se briser mon cœur de pierre
Dans la voie lactée, un autre amour se perd
Et je pense à toi, j'en perds la raison

J'écoute ta voix, rechante la chanson

Tu es parti, tu es partout
Même la nuit me donne des coups
Sous les larmes, mon sourire, se noie
Et la femme de cire, se débat

J'entends se briser mon cœur de pierre
Dans la voie lactée, un autre amour se perd
Et je pense à toi, j'en perds la raison
J'écoute ta voix, rechante la chanson

Si loin déjà des jolies heures
Et je pense à toi, j'en perds la raison
J'écoute ta voix, rechante la chanson

Oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Rechante la chanson

Et je pense à toi, oh
J'écoute ta voix

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of NACH's "Coeur de pierre" express the pain and sorrow of someone who has lost a loved one. The first few lines establish a sense of distance and isolation, with the singer's body feeling cold and their heart gripped by fear. They reflect on the memories of happier times and the departure of a close friend, who is now gone like the wind. The phrase "mon cœur de pierre" ("my heart of stone") is repeated throughout the song, serving as a metaphor for the numbness and hardness of the singer's emotions in the face of loss.

As the song progresses, the singer's thoughts turn to the person they have lost. They mention the sound of their heart breaking amidst the vastness of the Milky Way, implying a sense of cosmic insignificance compared to the intensity of their emotions. The singer becomes consumed with thoughts of their loved one, their voice echoing in their head and bringing back memories. The third verse introduces a sense of physical pain, with the image of tears drowning out the singer's smile, as though the weight of their grief is too much to bear. The final lines of the song repeat the refrain of "rechante la chanson" ("sing the song again"), emphasizing the cyclical nature of memory and the singer's need to keep their loved one close to them, even if only in their thoughts.

Overall, "Coeur de pierre" is a poignant reflection on the experience of grief and the lasting impact of love and loss. It speaks to the universal human experience of feeling adrift in the face of change and the unyielding power of memory and emotion.
