Perfect circle - Katie Melua [Intro]       1. A mask is easily placed on a betrayed and broken face. A disguise to hide the past when you mapped out my skin and made the memories last. 2. Some things are never erased and I have run when I’ve been chased by recollections of you and me falling off our homemade castle. And even when I’m walking straight I always end up in a perfect circle oh I try but I just can’t wait to break out of this perfect circle. ’Cos giving into old temptation is like that common twitch oh the silly stupid realisation the more you scratch the more you itch. 3. Why am I fighting what’s it for ? Must let my mask drop to the floor. My scars I shouldn’t hide from the people who are on my side 4. Rolling up my sleeves to fight against all the things I locked up and all the things I fenced. but it’s time to let it out so we can build a brand new castle.   +CHORUS + (2x) And even when I’m walking straight I always end up in a perfect circle oh I try but I just can’t wait to break out of this perfect circle. ’Cos giving into old temptation is like that common twitch oh the silly stupid realisation the more you scratch the more you itch. + ~ ~ + The more you scratch the more you itch.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la difficulté de se libérer des souvenirs et des luttes internes. Elle parle d’un masque que l’on porte pour cacher ses blessures et ses souvenirs douloureux, tout en reconnaissant que certaines cicatrices ne peuvent pas être effacées. La répétition de ce cycle est frustrante, car malgré les efforts pour avancer, on se retrouve souvent à tourner en rond, en proie à des tentations passées. Finalement, il est question de l’importance de se montrer tel que l’on est, sans cacher ses blessures, et de laisser place à une nouvelle reconstruction. C’est une invitation à l’authenticité et à la renaissance.
