Don't Let it Bring You Down

Annie Lennox

Transposer:

              Old man lying by the side of the road With the lorries rolling by Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load And the buildings scrape the sky Cold wind ripping down the valley at dawn And the morning paper flies Dead man lying by the side of the road With the daylight in his eyes Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning Find someone who's turning And you will come around               Blind man running through the light of the night With an answer in his hand Come on down to the river of sight And you can really understand Red lights flashing through the window in the rain Can you hear those sirens moan? White cane lying in a gutter in the lane And you're walking home alone Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning Find someone who's turning And you will come around               Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning Find someone who's turning And you will come around               Old man lying by the side of the road With the lorries rolling by Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load And the buildings scrape the sky Cold wind ripping down the valley at dawn And the morning paper flies Dead man lying by the side of the road With the daylight in his eyes Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning Find someone who's turning And you will come around                You will come around                Don't let it bring you down It's only castles burning Find someone who's turning And you will come around

La chanson évoque des images puissantes de la vie et de la mort, en présentant des rencontres avec des personnages marginaux qui symbolisent la lutte et la souffrance. À travers ces scènes de désespoir, elle rappelle qu'il est essentiel de ne pas se laisser submerger par l'adversité. Les « châteaux » qui brûlent représentent les rêves ou les espoirs perdus, mais il y a aussi un appel à chercher des personnes qui pourront nous guider et nous aider à retrouver notre chemin. Le contexte de cette œuvre se trouve dans une réalité urbaine souvent dure, où les personnages, comme le vieil homme ou l'aveugle, incarnent les difficultés de la vie quotidienne. Malgré les défis, il y a une lueur d'espoir si l'on parvient à se tourner vers ceux qui sont capables de nous éclairer.
