Les coulisses
Sans doute la première pop-symphonique-rap-rock song de Monmix.Sans doute l'arrangement le plus compliqué de Monmix, non pas de par la longueur de la chanson (des chansons comme "Quand il n'en restera" ou "Silence" étaient des gageures) mais par la densité et le nombre de pistes (135pistes!!) et aussi par l'ambition d'arrangement proposée par half-Monmix, à savoir du symphonique en base ryhtmique et orchestrale. Monmix s'est aussi compliqué la tâche en y collant un peu de rap, et là aussi le challenge rythmique du flow et du syncopage imposent un calage précis .
Coté texte, c'est l'histoire d'une rupture donc le protaganiste délaissé passe par trois stades. D'abord, il refuse d'y croire, ensuite il essaye d'oublier et finalement décide de se venger. Et tout ça sur fond d'arpege inspiré de "Every breath you take" , la chanson de Police considérée à tort comme une chanson d'amour, souvent jouée dans les mariages alors que c'est presque tout le contraire, une obsession, un harcelement
Paroles
You could have left me a reason,
I have spent my time to find a word
The shadow of your soul haunts me each and every day
It’s been a while you run away,
I’m still wondering why, you’re gone
I am still wandering around ,
I am all alone, can’t find your trace
I hope you left to embrace the future,
to come back to me stronger
And not to fade away ...I dream that
For a second, a minute, just a sign from heaven ,
the smell of a flower I need something to hang on to
I need a flashback, a flashlight, a candle or the moon
to enlight my way to guide my way to you
The sound of a bird, of a song , of a gun
whatever could bring me back to you
Break the silence, the darkness, and fill my emptyness,
but don’t leave me on the highway to hell
We used to love the song every breath you take
But now it is my breath you break
And now I am awake , the Police song was just a fake,
Just a fake love song, just a fake love song,
Don’t tell me that you and me, we also got it wrong
I don’t think there’s much more I can take, it’s pathetic
This song in my head drives me crazy
It should’ve been plain to see,
it was just here in front of me, before my eyes,
Behind the pain , behind the ache ,
the chimera feeding my agony ... we got it wrong
And since you left me behind, I run ,
I ‘ll spend my time to run the world
The shadow of your soul will be hidden by a bright sun
I look around and I can see,
all what love was too blind to see, I’ll be
Sailing the seven seas and the next one yet to be seen, I want
To find what is yet to be discovered,
it’ll make me stronger , I am not ready to fade away
For a second, a minute, just a sign from heaven ,
the smell of a flower I got something to hang on to
No need for flashback, flashlight, a candle or the moon
to look ahead for a bright life without you
The sound of a bird, of a song , of a gun
whatever could help me forget you
But I am just fooling myself, I promised myself
I’ll be chasing you on the highway to hell
Watch out girl, I’ll be on your back, on your steps,
I won’t turn away it’s payback time
There’s no time to waste my time,
I’ll track you down wherever you hide
I’ll find you where are, I’ll find you where you sleep,
I’ll find you were you breathe
You’ll feel my breath in your neck
And as in the song every breath you take,
I’ll be watching you bend and break
I’ll be around you everywhere
like a spy, like a stalker, like a snake
I was not a fake love boy,
you played with me, I am not a toy
Be ready to suffer girl
cause you got me wrong
You got me wrong!!
