The Rat Within The Grain

Damien Rice

Transposer:

This would not have happened if I hadn’t missed my plane I would have been there when they told you I’m the rat within the grain Within this big misunderstanding now I’m being misunderstood I’m thinkin someone’s trying to fuck with me and set fire to my wood I wouldn’t want you to want to be wanted by me I wouldn’t want you to worry you’d be drowned within my sea I only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true                      ()                     In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you The stupid situation now where everything goes wrong If you can’t tell if I am lying then you do not belong In my bed go rest your head upon the bones of a bigger man And he can cover you with rockwool and you can close up like a clam Cause I wouldn’t want you to want to be wanted by me I wouldn’t want you to worry you’d be drowned within my sea I only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true                      ()                     In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you Interlude u> So go play with your piano write a mediocre song About the shell of mediocrity and pretend there’s nothing wrong I never thought you were a chicken shit I never thought of you at all Until you asked me to be part of it and now you’re showing me your wall I wouldn’t want you to want to be wanted by me I wouldn’t want you to worry you’d be drowned within my sea I only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true                      ()                     In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you u>                       ()                    In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you

La chanson explore les sentiments de confusion et de désespoir, où l'artiste se sent mal compris et perdu au milieu d'un malentendu. Il évoque la peine d'une relation où il désire avant tout être souhaité, mais il craint que son besoin d'affection ne cause du tort à l'autre. À travers des métaphores puissantes, il exprime une lutte intérieure, oscillant entre la vulnérabilité et l'envie de s'éloigner de la souffrance qu'il pourrait infliger. Le contexte reflète des thèmes universels de désir, de solitude et de la complexité des relations interpersonnelles, où l'aspiration à être aimé peut entraîner des complications inattendues. Cette chanson résonne avec quiconque a éprouvé l’incertitude des affections et des engagements humains.
