Snakes And Ladders

Basia Bulat

Transposer:

A really beautiful song. Just comment if you find any mistakes...have fun with it... Basia Bulat - Snakes and Ladders These mirrors you’ve broken are your cry for art Salt and pepper shakers over your shoulders Cross your heart Don’t you know it’s bad luck To stay in one place for too long? You’ve been listening to the voices in your head Helpless when they go So we play a game of snakes and ladders Gambled our mistakes Didn’t know what could come after Threw away the cards Who thinks it could matter? Oh who believes in fate anyway? When only you could be the one To win out over me When it isn’t just a game It’s the way we come undone What a perfect accident Oh we danced around them all Like we didn’t even notice ah oh oh oh ohh I love the way we come undone Thought I saw something hidin’ in the yard But it was bad weather to keep a watch out in the dark You know all this time I’ve been playing for your heart But I never let it on I’ll have to watch you play the part So we play a game of snakes and ladders Gambled our mistakes Didn’t know what could come after Threw away the cards Who thinks it could matter? Oh who believes in fate anyway? When only you could be the one To win out over me When it isn’t just a game It’s the way we come undone What a perfect accident Oh we danced around them all Like we didn’t even notice ah oh oh oh ohh I love the way we come undone

Cette chanson explore les jeux de hasard de la vie, où l’on parie sur nos choix et nos erreurs. Elle évoque les incertitudes et les luttes intérieures, comme si on jouait à un jeu où le destin et les émotions se mélangent. Il est question de relations complexes, où l'on se retrouve parfois à danser autour des problèmes sans vraiment les affronter, révélant une beauté dans l'imperfection et les accidents de la vie. Le contexte semble toucher à la vulnérabilité humaine et à cette sensation de perte de contrôle face aux conséquences de nos décisions. À travers une métaphore de serpents et d'échelles, cette chanson illustre parfaitement le chemin imprévisible que l'on emprunte, oscillant entre succès et échecs.
