Last Night on Earth

U2

Transposer:

She feels the ground is giving way But she thinks we're better off that way The more you take the less you feel The less you know the more you believe The more you have the more it takes today You gotta give it away You gotta give it away You gotta give it away She doesn't care what it's worth She's living like it's the last night on earth The last night on earth She's not waiting on a savior to come She's at a bus stop with the News of the World And the Sun She's not waiting for anyone You gotta give it away You gotta give it away You gotta give it away She knows just what it's worth She's living like it's the last night on earth The last night on earth Slipping away Slip slide The world turns and we get dizzy Slipping away She's living next week now You know she's going to pay you back somehow The future is so predictable The past is too uncomfortable You gotta give it away You gotta give it away You gotta give it away She already knows it hurts She's living like it's the last night on earth The last night on earth Last night on earth Last night on earth

La chanson évoque une femme qui, malgré l'incertitude et les difficultés du moment, choisit de vivre pleinement chaque instant, comme si c'était son dernier. Elle ne cherche pas de sauveur et prend sa vie en main, consciente de la valeur des choses. L'idée centrale est que l'attachement aux possessions matérielles et aux certitudes peut aliener l'esprit. Elle souligne l'importance de donner et de partager, plutôt que de se focaliser sur ce que l'on a ou ce que l'on attend. Concernant le contexte, cette chanson s'inscrit dans une époque où les tensions et les crises semblent omni-présentes, nous rappelant la fragilité de notre existence et l'importance de profiter de l'instant présent.
