Going to a Town

Rufus Wainwright

Transposer:

===== Verse ===== I’m going to a town that has already been burned down I’m going to a place that is already been disgraced I’m gonna see some folks who have already been let down. I’m so tired of America (Repeat for Verse 2) I’m gonna make it up for all of the Sunday Times I’m gonna make it up for all of the nursery rhymes They never really seem to want to tell the truth I’m so tired of you America ====== Chorus ====== Making my own way home Ain’t gonna be alone I got a life to lead America I got a life to lead (Back to Verse) Tell me do you really think you go to hell for having loved? Tell me and not for thinking every thing that you’ve done is good (I really need to know) After soaking the body of Jesus Christ in blood I’m so tired of America (I really need to know) I may just never see you again or might as well You took advantage of a world that loved you well I’m going to a town that has already been burned down I’m so tired of you America Making my own way home Ain’t gonna be alone                              (Break - Not tabbed yet sorry!)             I got a life to lead America I got a life to lead I got a soul to feed I got a dream to heed And that’s all I need Making my own way home Ain’t gonna be alone I’m going to a town that has already been burned down

La chanson évoque un voyage vers un endroit qui a déjà subi destruction et humiliation, où la désillusion règne. L'artiste exprime un profond ras-le-bol vis-à-vis de son pays, déplorant l'absence de vérité dans les récits qui devraient inspirer et élever les âmes. Il aspire à construire sa propre vie, indépendamment de ce qui l'entoure, tout en se questionnant sur la moralité et les valeurs de la société. Dans cette œuvre, on ressent une lutte intérieure face à un monde décevant, tout en maintenant un espoir de renouveau personnel. C’est un cri du cœur qui demande une identité authentique au milieu des frustrations et des attentes déçues.
