Sia爀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You have her pictures,
You have her pictures everywhere.
You're covered in stitches,
You're covered in stitches,
You think I can't see them, but I know they're there.
Take her down from the wall,
Let yourself fall,
You can't keep her frozen, dormant at your court,
You can try to move on, tripped by stitches come undone.
you lost your big heart,
You lost your big heart,
You lost your big heart beating bare.
She gave you a new start,
She gave you a new start,
But you knew you'd lost her to despair.
[Chorus]
Your skin burns and prickles,
Your skin burns and prickles,
Your skin burns and prickles when she's near.
You try to play it cool,
You try to play it cool,
You try to play it cool, but you're filled with fear.
[Chorus]
Take her down from the wall,
Let her go make her yours,
You can't keep her frozen, dormant at your court,
You can try to move on, tripped by stitches come undone.
You can try to move on, tripped by stitches come undone.
You can try to move on, tripped by stitches come undone.
You can try to move on, or maybe she is the one.
The lyrics to Sia's song "Pictures" are about a person who is holding onto the memory of a lost lover. The repetition of "You have her pictures" suggests that the person is surrounded by tangible reminders of the past relationship. The repeated line "You're covered in stitches" could possibly refer to scars from a past injury or surgery, but in the context of the song, it is more likely a metaphor for emotional wounds. The singer believes that they are hiding these wounds from the world, but the singer (presumably a friend or therapist) can see them.
The chorus of the song is a call to action, urging the singer to "Take her down from the wall" and "Let yourself fall." This is a metaphor for letting go of the past and allowing oneself to move on to new relationships. The repeated refrain "You can try to move on, tripped by stitches come undone" suggests that this will not be an easy process and that old wounds may resurface. However, the last line of the chorus offers a glimmer of hope: "Or maybe she is the one." This line implies that the singer may find love again if they are able to move on from the past.
Overall, "Pictures" is a beautifully written plea for emotional healing and the ability to let go of the past.

Lorsque je disais '' les barons de la haute finance '' je faisais allusion au gratin des gens aisés @Françoise S notamment les vedettes et veuves joyeuses à l'image de Laetitia Hallyday et bien d'autres...
Personnellement, je dors sur mes deux oreilles en faisant des rêves contrairement à ces gens qui ne font que des cauchemars.
Je ne suis peut-être pas riche, mais j'ai des valeur.s
Je ne me prends pas pour quelqu'un que je ne suis pas car je suis bien dans mon propre rôle.
Je ne suis peut-être pas fier de certaines choses que j'ai fait dans le passé, mais je suis fier de ce que je suis aujourd'hui.
Je ne suis peut-être pas parfait mais de toute façon, je ne veux pas l'être pour plaire à des riches sans scrupules qui ont les mains sales et pleines sang...
Pour finir, la vie nous apprend à pratiquer deux sagesses.
L'une est de pardonner et l'autre de ne jamais oublier.
Je vous salut très respectueusement.

Merci pour ce magnifique reportage!
Il nous fait clairement voir, à quelle niveau de la hiérarchie, sont les gens qui détruisent la planète. Ils ne pensent qua leur petite personne!
Quelle tristesse, pour les futurs générations !

Un grand bravo 👏👏👏 à cette vieille dame retraitée qui cédera son bien à une fondation axée sur la survie des tortues 🐢🐢🐢.
L'initiative est vraiment honorable.
Moi aussi, depuis que j'ai découvert l'humain dans ce monde de brutes :
J'adore les animaux 😾🐈🐩🐕🐎🐥🐦🦃🦆🐟🐋.

Et pourtant la vidéo diffusée démontre bien que cette vieille dame retraitée élève des tortues @Louisse Louisse.
@AamineAlger
Personnellement @Louisse Louisse je ne crois que ce que je vois et la vidéo diffusée montre bien une personne âgée élever des tortues sauf si ma vue me fait défaut.
Si vous habitez l'île Saint-Barth vous trouverez très certainement l'endroit...
