Things We Lost In The Fire

Bastille

Transposer:

Things we lost to the flame Things we’ll never see again All that we’ve amassed Sits before us shattered into ash These are the things the things we lost The things we lost in the fire fire fire These are the things the things we lost The things we lost in the fire fire fire We sat and made a list Of all the things that we have Down the backs of table tops Ticket stubs and your diaries I read them all one day When loneliness came and you were away Oh they told me nothing new But I love to read the words you used These are the things the things we lost The things we lost in the fire fire fire These are the things the things we lost The things we lost in the fire fire fire I was the match and you were the rock Maybe we started this fire We sat apart and watched All we had burned on the pyre (You said) we were born with nothing And we sure as hell have nothing now (You said) we were born with nothing And we sure as hell have nothing now These are the things the things we lost The things we lost in the fire fire fire These are the things the things we lost The things we lost in the fire fire fire Flames they licked the walls Tenderly they turned to dust all that I adore

Cette chanson évoque la perte de souvenirs et d'objets qui ont été consumés par les flammes. Elle parle des choses chères à notre cœur, des moments et des symboles de notre vie qui, après un événement destructeur, ne seront plus jamais les mêmes. Le protagoniste semble se souvenir des éléments qui l'entouraient, des petites choses du quotidien, tout en réalisant que la vie peut tout effacer en un instant. Le contexte peut faire allusion à une rupture, à un événement traumatisant ou à des souvenirs collectifs d'un passé révolu. Les flammes symbolisent à la fois la destruction et la transformation, un rappel que, malgré la perte, ce qui reste est rempli d'une certaine nostalgie. On y perçoit un mélange de mélancolie et de réflexion sur ce qui constitue réellement notre existence.
