The ascent of a Man

R.E.M.

Transposer:

So hesitation pulled me back I'm stronger when I don't attract In your eyes I'm a lamb without a rack And I am getting confused I'm a cactus trying to be a canoe As you pan for ore In the desert, floored I say to you That I could never imagine a place so beautiful I could never steal your gold away. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (I try to walk like a big wham bam I came across like a battering ram I try to float like a telegram sam I'm trying to divine you My book is called "The Ascent Of Man" I marked your chapter with a catamaran The accent's off But I am what I am Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (I try to walk like a big wham bam I came across like a battering ram I try to float like a telegram sam I'm trying to divine you.) I looked for you, it's my last grandstand A motorscootered goat legged pan Figure eighting in quicksand Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (I try to walk like a big wham bam I try to float like a telegram sam I came across like a battering ram I'm trying to divine you.) (I try to walk like a big wham bam I try to float like a telegram sam I came across like a battering ram I'm trying to divine you.) So hesitation pulled me back I'm so in love I don't attract And with my hands tied I won't crack ('Cause in my mind I called you back.)

La chanson évoque les hésitations et les contradictions d'une relation amoureuse. Le protagoniste se sent perdu, tiraillé entre sa force et ses doutes, cherchant à se rapprocher de l'autre tout en ressentant une certaine vulnérabilité. À travers des métaphores comme un cactus essayant d'être une pirogue, il montre la difficulté d’adapter son être à l’amour. Il exprime également son admiration pour l’autre, reconnaissant la beauté de cette connexion tout en se sentant inadapté. Le contexte semble tourner autour d'une quête personnelle, où les frustrations et les aspirations s’entremêlent, illustrant le chemin sinueux que nous prenons avec nos sentiments. C'est une réflexion sur les défis émotionnels qui viennent avec l'amour et le désir de comprendre l'autre.
