Plus de Sens

Angèle's song 'Plus de Sens' delves into the emotional turmoil and existential dread that can accompany feelings of disconnection and loss. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world where nothing seems to make sense anymore, using metaphors like 'an étincelle dans une pompe à essence' (a spark in a gas pump) and 'un acouphène en silence' (a tinnitus in silence) to illustrate the chaos and confusion. These images evoke a sense of danger and discomfort, mirroring the internal state of someone grappling with the meaninglessness of their surroundings.

The song also touches on the theme of regret and the struggle to cope with an uncertain future. Angèle sings about trying to hold on and forget her fear of the future, acknowledging that life is far from perfect and filled with moments of regret. The repetition of 'Et j'ai essayé de tenir' (And I tried to hold on) underscores the effort it takes to maintain composure in the face of overwhelming emotions. The line 'La vie sans vous est triste à mourir' (Life without you is sad to die) highlights the deep sense of loss and longing for connection, suggesting that the absence of loved ones exacerbates the feeling of senselessness.

In the final verses, there is a glimmer of hope as Angèle envisions a time when things will make sense again. She imagines a future where they can celebrate grandly and find what truly matters, indicating that the current state of confusion and waiting is temporary. This hopeful outlook provides a counterbalance to the earlier despair, suggesting that meaning and joy can be restored with time and reconnection. The song ultimately captures the complex interplay between despair and hope, illustrating the human capacity to endure and find meaning even in the darkest times.
