Black Dog On My Shoulder

Manic Street Preachers

Transposer:

[Verse 1] There’s a black dog on my shoulder again Licking my neck and saying she’s my friend Soltitude the one thing that I really miss Guess my life is a compromise [Pre-Chorus 1] There’s a black dog on my shoulder again   I’m playing with it but it’s gone to my head   Like carlito’s way there are no exit signs. [Chorus 1] Freeze me there until I’m numb My mouth is so dry my eyes are shut tight There’s a black dog a coming tonight Black dogs a coming tonight          [Instrumental]      [Verse 2] My dilemma but not my choice Winston Churchill can you hear my voice Melodrama there in my kitchen sink Double vision the way it is      [Pre-chorus 2] Am I coming home to you again Or am I stupid just by design Does it matter if you really ever know. [Chorus 2] This black dog is out of control My mouth is so dry my eyes are shut tight There’s a black dog a coming tonight Black dogs a coming tonight. [Instrumental]              [x2] [Pre-Chorus 3] Am I coming home to you again Or am I stupid just by design Does it matter if you really ever know. [Chorus 3] This black dog is out of control My mouth is so dry my eyes are shut tight There’s a black dog a coming tonight Black dogs a coming tonight. [Outro]

La chanson évoque un sentiment de lutte intérieure, symbolisé par un "chien noir" qui représente la mélancolie et l'angoisse. Le protagoniste semble coincé dans un état de désespoir, tentant de composer avec la solitude et les doutes qui l'assaillent. Il questionne son retour vers une certaine stabilité, tout en se demandant si cela a vraiment de l'importance. Les références à des figures historiques ou culturelles ajoutent une dimension de profondeur à sa prise de conscience, mettant en lumière un combat souvent personnel et universel contre ses propres démons.
