Paroles de la chanson

Ahh

Gone a little far

Gone a little far this time for somethin'

How was I to know?

How was I to know this dark emotion?

We're on the borderline

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Possibly a sign

I'm gonna have the strangest night on Sunday

There I go

Quite a show for a loner in L.A.​

Askin' how I managed to end up in this place

And I couldn't get away

We're on the borderline

Dangerously far and all forgiven

There's gonna be a fight

Gonna be a price to pay on Monday

(If you and I get comfortable)

We're on the borderline (On the borderline)

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Then I saw the time (Saw the time)

Watched it speedin' by like a train

Like a train

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be known and loved?

Little closer, close enough

I'm a loser, loosen up

Set it free, must be tough

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

If there's room, room for doubt

As within, as without ya'

Will I be so in love?

Gettin' closer, close enough

Shout out to what is done

R.I.P., here comes the sun

Here comes the sun

Gone a little far, gone a little far

This time with something

How could I have known?

How was I to know this life get no shame

I said "come with me outside"

Need to clear my mind

This weight is crushing

Do you see the light, oh

Coming from their eyes, oh no

And I couldn't get away

We're on the borderline

Gets me every time

These close encounters

Just to know I can

(Just to know I can)

Once again I am alone

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Will I be known and loved?

Little closer, close enough

I'm a loser, loosen up

Set it free, must be tough (I was fine without 'ya)

Will I be known and loved?

L.A. really messed me up

And it isn't cut and dry

Conversation, well I tried (I was fine without 'ya)

Will I be? stay right here

Any closer, bad idea

Shout out to what is done

R.I.P., here comes the sun (I was fine without 'ya)

Will I be known and loved?

Is there one that I trust?

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough?

Explication des paroles de Borderline de Tame Impala

La chanson « Borderline » de Tame Impala aborde le thème de l’incertitude et de la confusion émotionnelle. Kevin Parker, le cerveau derrière Tame Impala, a écrit cette chanson en s’inspirant de sa propre nostalgie et de ses réflexions sur la frontière entre le bonheur et la mélancolie.

Lors de la création de la chanson, Parker a expérimenté différents sons et textures sonores pour refléter le sentiment de flottement et d’ambiguïté émotionnelle. Une anecdote intéressante est que la ligne de basse entraînante qui ouvre la chanson a été créée par accident lors d’une session d’enregistrement.

En conclusion, « Borderline » capture brillamment l’essence de l’incertitude émotionnelle à travers une production musicale riche et immersive.
