"Don’t Push Your Foot on the Heartbrake" By Kate Bush From 1978’s "Lionheart" Intro:                     (Repeat) Emma’s come down.                She’s stopped the light Shining out of her eyes. Emma’s been run out on.                    She’s breaking down In so many places Stuck in low gear Because of her fears Of the skidding wheels     (The skid of her wheels she feels.) Skidding wheels (The skid of her wheels she feels.) Spinning wheels.           (Wheel-skidding feeling.)                  Her heart is there       But they’ve greased the road.                        Her heart is out there    But she’s no control.                               Come on you’ve got to use your flow.     You know what it’s like and you know you want to go.          Don’t drive too slowly.          Don’t put your blues where your shoes should be.         Don’t put your foot on the heartbrake.                           (She’s losing she’s losing she’s losing she’s losing...) She’s losing that inner flame. It was burning bright But she’s losing the light fast. She’s only herself to blame. Well take care of yourself And remember Georgie. But she’s so O.D.’d on weeping She can hardly see That she’s dropping beads. (Red red glass is bleeding.) Dropping beads. (Red red glass is bleeding.) Dropping beads. (Red red on the parquet.)              Her heart is there      But they’ve greased the road.                        Her heart is out there    But she’s no control.                                 Come on you’ve got to use your flow.    You know what it’s like and you know you want to go.          Don’t drive too slowly.         Don’t put your blues where your shoes should be.         Don’t put your foot on the heartbrake.          Oh come on you’ve got to use your flow.       You know what it’s like and you know you want to go.          Don’t drive too slowly.         Don’t put your blues where your shoes should be.              Don’t put your foot on the heartbrake.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la lutte d'une jeune femme, Emma, qui se sent perdue et débordée par ses émotions. Elle fait face à des peurs qui la paralysent, la rendant incapable d'avancer dans sa vie. Malgré un cœur plein d'espoir, elle se sent entravée par des obstacles invisibles qui l'empêchent de prendre le volant de son existence. Les métaphores liées à la conduite et aux roues glissantes soulignent sa détresse et son sentiment de perte de contrôle. Le contexte pourrait être celui d'un moment de vulnérabilité, où elle se remet en question face à des choix difficiles, tout en se souvenant de quelqu'un, probablement cher à son cœur. Cette chanson capture parfaitement l'idée que, même lorsque l'on se sent accablé, il est essentiel de trouver la force de continuer à avancer et de ne pas céder à la mélancolie qui peut être paralysante.
