Rien
Paula Arenas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tu sais que tu me manques, je t'attends ici
Tu sais m'ignorer, tu sais aussi m'éviter
T'en sais beaucoup, tu ne sais rien, de ce qui m'arrive
Tu connais le passé, tu connais le futur
Tu sais ce que je veux et que je reste ici
Tu connais la douleur, mais c'est pas ce qui arrive
Tu sais tant d'autres choses
Mais de moi tu ne sais rien
Tu sais que quelque chose va mal
Entre toi et moi
Et pour toi ce n'est rien, rien, rien
Rien
Tu sais que le bien ne dure presque jamais
Tu sais que l'automne finira
Tu sais que c'est un mensonge que l'amour peut tout
Tu sais tellement sur la vie, mais tu n'sais pas vivre
Tu sais tant d'autres choses
Mais de moi tu ne sais rien
Tu sais que quelque chose va mal
Entre toi et moi
Et pour toi ce n'est rien, rien, rien
Rien
Malgré ça je crois en toi
Je te veux dans mon destin
Oublions le passé
Le passé dans l'oubli
Tu sais tant d'autres choses
Mais de moi tu ne sais rien
Tu sais que quelque chose va mal
Entre toi et moi
Et pour toi ce n'est rien, rien, rien
Tu sais que quelque chose va mal
Entre toi et moi
Et pour toi ce n'est rien, rien, rien
Rien
Rien
The song "Rien" by Paula Arenas is a soulful ballad about a person who feels misunderstood and neglected by someone who knows a lot about everything else but seems to know nothing about them. The lyrics tell a story of longing for connection, even though the singer knows that the other person doesn't understand them. The opening lines set the tone of the song by saying, "You know about memories, you also know about forgetting. You know that I miss you, I am waiting for you here. You know how to ignore me, you also know how to avoid me."
The lyrics go on to describe how the other person knows so much about the past and future, how they can sense that something is wrong between them, yet they remain distant and closed off. The chorus repeats the word "rien" (meaning "nothing" in French), emphasizing the singer's feeling of being invisible to the other person. Despite their frustration with the situation, the singer still believes in and wants the other person in their life, hoping to forget the past and move forward together.
Overall, the song portrays a complex mix of emotions such as loneliness, yearning, and desperation for connection, all while acknowledging the inevitability of misunderstandings and failure in relationships. The melody of the song matches the lyrics, with a slow and somber tone that emphasizes each word, building up the intensity of the emotions conveyed.
