Steer Your Way

Leonard Cohen

Transposer:

Steer your way past the ruins of the Altar and the Mall Steer your way through the fables of Creation and The Fall Steer your way past the Palaces that rise above the rot Year by year month by month day by day Thought by thought Steer your heart past the Truth that you believed in yesterday Such as Fundamental Goodness and the Wisdom of the Way Steer your heart precious heart past the women whom you bought Year by year month by month day by day Thought by thought Steer your way through the pain that is far more real than you That's smashed the Cosmic Model that blinded every view And please don't make me go there though there be a God or not Year by year month by month day by day Thought by thought They whisper still the injured stones The blunted mountains weep As he died to make men holy Let us die to make things cheap And say the Mea Culpa which you probably forgot Year by year month by month day by day Thought by thought Steer your way O my heart though I have no right to ask To the one who was never never equal to the task Who knows he's been convicted who knows he will be shot Year by year month by month day by day Thought by thought They whisper still the injured stones The blunted mountains weep As he died to make men holy Let us die to make things cheap And say your Mea Culpa which you gradually forgot Year by year month by month day by day Thought by thought

La chanson évoque un voyage intérieur, guidant le cœur à travers les décombres des croyances passées et des illusions. Elle invite à naviguer entre les réalisités sombres du monde et les promesses d'une vérité plus profonde, tout en reconnaissant la douleur et les luttes qui accompagnent cette quête. Les paroles nous poussent à réfléchir sur notre rapport au divin et à la responsabilité morale, soulignant un contraste entre la recherche de la sainteté et une tendance à banaliser les sacrifices. Elle interroge notre capacité à faire face à nos fautes et à notre humanité, tout en nous encourageant à avancer chaque jour avec sagesse et compassion.
