Toutes Les Peines
Patrick Fiori Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
D'un geste sans y penser sans sol à creuser
Du chaud
Sans braise ni cheminée, sans arbre à couper
Du facile, du futile sans malheur
Puérile à chacun son lot de douleurs
Mais toutes les peines toutes les haines
À quoi servent-elles?
Toutes les peines, les fêlures endormies
Oh toutes les peines, toutes les mêmes
Éternelles
À quoi riment-elles?
Tout c'qui saigne, nos infimes agonies
Des jeux
Sur écran plat, du virtuel et des couleurs
Du mieux
De l'argent, du sucre, et Noël à toutes les heures
Champ de mine, on se débine jusqu'au jour
Où tout s'écroule fragile à ton tour, ton tour
Mais toutes les peines toutes les haines
D'où qu'elles viennent
À quoi servent elles?
Toutes les peines, nos fêlures endormies
Oh toutes les peines, toutes les mêmes
Éternelles
À quoi riment-elles?
Tout c'qui saigne, ces infimes agonies
Mais toutes ces peines, ces gangrènes
Lourdes, anciennes
Qui saignent en nos cœurs
Donnent-elles à nos paix les valeurs?
In the song "Toutes Les Peines" (All the Pain), Patrick Fiori reflects on the struggles and difficulties of life, saying that while we all face different types of pain and suffering, it is a universal experience that unites us all. He emphasizes that while we often distract ourselves with superficial pleasures and material possessions, the deeper pains and wounds remain.
The opening lines of the song contrast the simplicity and ease of basic needs like water and warmth with the more complex struggles of life, suggesting that while we can find ways to satisfy our physical desires, the emotional and psychological challenges of existence are much harder to address. Fiori suggests that everyone has their own unique experiences of pain and suffering, but ultimately they are all part of the same human condition.
Throughout the song, the question of the purpose of pain is explored. The chorus asks, "All the pain, all the hatred, where do they come from? What are they for? All the pain, the dormant cracks, oh all the pain, all the same, eternal. What is the point? Everything that bleeds, our smallest agonies." The repetition of these lyrics drives home the idea that pain is an endlessly recurring part of life, and that we often struggle to find meaning or purpose in it.
Overall, Patrick Fiori's "Toutes Les Peines" is a powerful meditation on the complexities of the human experience, and the ways in which we all face suffering and pain, no matter our circumstances.
