The Littlest Things

Streetlight Manifesto

Transposer:

Intro: First time that they came for me I was a young boy and little did I not believe I had a hole in my heart And I was looking for a piece that fit The next time I was privy to Their dirty secrets of their little hidden clues And when I added it up I had a little but a little won’t do Can anybody out there tell me something true Preferably something that no one can dispute When everybody’s spilling lifelong secrets I’m betting safely on the man it will demiss Despite his weakness He’ll take his secrets to the grave. (And we will leave it all!) Don’t ever want you left behind (So get your fill while I go) Don’t you ever think they’ll take you alive (I don’t know when the lies and when the truth begin) Don’t listen to anyone telling you anything It’s the truth it’s all relative Though no one thought it would ever come to this I have a secret And that secret is there was a lie I told myself until it became the truth Rest assured I have a on my mind If all the webs I weaved would ever come and unwind But I got plenty of time Can anybody out there tell me something true Before I believe something that no one can dispute When everybody’s spilling lifelong secrets I’m betting safely on the man it will demiss Despite his weakness He’ll take his secrets to the grave. (And we will leave it all!) Don’t ever want you left behind (So get your fill while I go) Don’t you ever think they’ll take you alive (I don’t know where the lies and then the truth begins) Don’t listen to anyone telling you anything It’s the truth it’s all relative I still believe in mysteries And all the lies and memories I know they’ll lay my body in the ground I plan to never settle down I took the medicine but the pills won’t work The pills they don’t do anything But rearrange all the littlest things and- I know a little bit but that bit won’t do That bit I know is irrelevant So I guess this song is irrelevant too

Cette chanson évoque une quête de vérité et de sens dans un monde truffé de mensonges et de secrets. Elle souligne le combat intérieur d'une personne qui se sent vide et cherche à combler cette absence par des vérités réelles, tout en étant consciente que tout ce qui est dit n'est pas forcément fiable. Les paroles explorent les illusions que l'on se crée pour échapper à la réalité, tout en mettant en avant les luttes personnelles face à la désillusion et aux révélations douloureuses. Le contexte semble tourner autour d'une introspection profonde, où l'individu questionne son passé et les fabrications de sa propre histoire. Ces réflexions soulignent un désespoir face à la difficulté de discerner le vrai du faux, tout en insistant sur l'importance de ne pas se laisser emporter par les apparences trompeuses des autres. Au final, cette chanson invite à une forme d'honnêteté intellectuelle même si elle se heurte souvent à des vérités difficiles à accepter.
