Promises, promises...

Non non le titre n'évoque pas l'album anglais de Carla B....Mais plutot des chansons de PJ Harvey, de son album Uh Uh Her, que je trouve sombre, mélancolique et intimiste comme il faut. Et je laisse Polly Jean parler à ma place ce coup ci, avec deux chansons, parce qu'il est tard et ses mots collent très bien avec ce qui se trame dans ma tête....(suffit de cliquer sur le titre et hop, on débarque sur deezer pour écouter).


The desperate kingdom of love

Oh love, you were a sickly child
And how the wind knocked you down
Put on your spurs, swagger around
In the desperate kingdom of love

Holy water cannot help you now
Your mysterious eyes cannot help you
Selling your reason will not bring you through
The desperate kingdom of love

There's another who looks from behind your eyes
I learn from you how to hide
From the desperate kingdom of love

At the end of this burning world
You'll stand proud, face upheld
And I'll follow you, into Heaven or Hell
And I'll become, as a girl
In the desperate kingdom of love




The darker days of me and him

Promises, promises
I'm feeling burned
You taught me a lesson
I didn't want to learn

Why did I come here?
Please tell me again
Why did you ask me?
Don't say you forget

I long for, I long for
I long for my home
I long for a land where
No man was ever known

With no neurosis
No psychosis
No psychoanalysis
And no sadness

I'll pick up the pieces
I'll carry on somehow
Tape the broken parts together
And limp this love around

Limp this love around
