Leader Of The Landslide

The Lumineers

Transposer:

Every night I saw you there In your old wicker chair Singing ooh You were wrong I was right Didn’t matter in a fight ooh   Coffee mug filled it up Always knew what it was Sing ooh Been on your side for years You could never love without crying   Is she dead is she fine Every day every night (     ) Fate has dealt me a lonely blow I said ooh Tried to help only hurt In the end I made it worse ooh   Is she dead is she fine Every day every night (     )   Give back my keys  give back my chair   Take back those clothes you always left on the floor (     )   You drove me wild  drove me insane   Drank the whole bottle forgot my name All I ever wanted was a mother for the first time Finally I could see you as the leader of the landslide     She left she left the writing’s on the wall     Please believe me I smell the alcohol     The only thing I know is that we’re in too deep     And maybe when she’s dead and gone I’ll get some sleep (     )   You blamed it all on your kids   We were young we were innocent   You told me a lie fuck you for that   Fuck all your pride and fuck all your prayers And all this time I waited like a fool and for the first time Finally I can see you as the leader of the landslide     She left she left the writing’s on the wall     Please believe me don’t answer when she calls     The only thing I know is that we’re in too deep     And maybe when she’s dead and gone I’ll get some sleep (     ) Out there on my own I was feeling so alone Like a poltergeist in the afterlife Fading by degrees I was shaking in the knees In the aftermath of this broken glass Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah

La chanson évoque la souffrance et la désillusion au sein d'une relation marquée par l'absence d'affection sincère. Le narrateur se remémore des souvenirs d'instabilité, d'angoisse et de frustration face à un amour qui semble condamné à l’échec. Entre des disputes sans fin et des promesses non tenues, il ressent un profond sentiment de solitude, cherchant désespérément une figure maternelle qui pourrait lui apporter réconfort et sécurité. Le contexte semble être celui d'une relation toxique, où l’alcool et la colère prennent le pas sur les sentiments positifs. Le narrateur fait face à la réalité d'une séparation imminente, tout en se débattant avec ses propres émotions et souvenirs. La mention d'un « glissement de terrain » symbolise peut-être la manière dont sa vie a été bouleversée par cette relation, le laissant se sentir perdu et en proie à ses propres démons.
