Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They will show me what I want to see
We will watch without grief
We stay one step ahead of relief
You tell me that we've been praying
For a bright and clever hell

I think we've been forced to our
Knees but I can't tell
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed
To be in love sometimes I forget my position
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed
To be in love sometimes I forget my position
It's so hot in here

What are they trying to hatch
We must not be frail, we must watch
Now that I'm out of touch with anger
Now I have nothing to live up to
I don't know when to stop joking
When I stop I hope I am with you

Sometimes I forget that we're supposed
To be in love sometimes I forget my position
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed
To be in love sometimes I forget my position
What on earth is the size of my life

Sometimes I forget that we're supposed
To be in love sometimes I forget my position
Sometimes I forget that we're supposed
To be in love sometimes I forget my position




And my position is somewhere between
A waitress and this table

Overall Meaning

"Parade" by Nouvelle Vague is a song that explores themes of self-doubt, confusion, and the complexities of romantic relationships. The lyrics reflect a sense of detachment and uncertainty, as the singer questions their role in love and struggles with their own identity.


The opening lines, "They will show me what I want to see, we will watch without grief, we stay one step ahead of relief," suggest a sense of superficiality and façade. It implies that the singer willingly embraces illusions and avoids facing their true emotions, perhaps to maintain a sense of control and avoid vulnerability.


The line "You tell me that we've been praying for a bright and clever hell" can be interpreted as a reference to a tumultuous relationship. It suggests that the singer and their partner have been trapped in a vicious cycle of conflict and desire. The juxtaposition of "bright" and "clever" with "hell" implies that the love they seek might be twisted and destructive.


Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of forgetting one's position in love. The repeated line "Sometimes I forget that we're supposed to be in love, sometimes I forget my position" reflects the singer's uncertainty and confusion about their role in the relationship. It highlights their struggle to reconcile their emotions and expectations.


The chorus, "It's so hot in here, what are they trying to hatch, we must not be frail, we must watch," suggests a heightened intensity and discomfort in the relationship. The metaphor of something hatching indicates that there might be hidden motives or secrets at play. The mention of not being frail and needing to watch implies a sense of vigilance and resilience required to navigate the complexities of love.


Overall, "Parade" delves into the inner conflicts and uncertainties of love and the struggle to maintain a sense of identity within a relationship.
