Doing all right
Après avoir posté un commentaire anormalement long chez Guenille, j’ai eu envie d’écouter Day One. Parce que mine de rien, I’m Doing Fine reflète bien l’état dans lequel je me trouve en ce moment. En fait je crois que je viens à peine de comprendre pourquoi j’ai toujours adoré ce morceau. Dommage, j’ai oublié d’emmener le CD à la fac ce matin.
Everyone has their own centre to this universe, but it stops right there.
And kids who try and see it all, writing graffiti on the wall, but it stops right there.
And we’re all in the know from one television show, but it stops right there.
And take care of yourself, cause it’s all about ourselves, and it stops right there.
I’m lost looking in a sea of faces everywhere, now where did she go ?
I need to find her quickly to immerse my insecurity,
I’m lonely amongst these people.
And I need to feel love, and I need to feel part of something.
Is that strange ?
And why are they reluctant to talk, and why do they look alone when they walk ?
I see a face but no names.
But despite my confusion, I’ve come to the conclusion that people need people.
It’s something I forget but I’ve come to accept that people need people.
And I’m alright, and I’m ok, I’m surviving well without you.
And what did you want, and what did you expect, did you want me to still talk about you?
No, no way, I’m on my own now, and doing fine.
No, no way, I’m on my own now, and doing fine.
And anyone can give money to a good cause, but it stops right there.
And anyone can sign a petition to change the law, but it stops right there.
And we can believe in socialism, or any theorism, but it stops right there.
And take care of yourself, cause it’s all about yourself, and it stops right there.
But I’m not part of this, I’m not seeing what they’re seeing, I’m staring at the ceiling to the world, to see what is lying on the horizon, maybe I’ll see you again someday girl.
But despite my raw deal, I still feel that people need people.
It’s something we forget, but we must accept that people need people.
And I’m alright, and I’m ok, I’m surviving well without you.
And what did you want, and what did you expect, did you want me to still talk about you?
No, no way, I’m on my own now, and doing fine.
No, no way, I’m on my own now, and doing fine.
I’m doing fine
