Great song from their single: The Bastards Vol. 3 Like with most Radical face songs the guitar is tuned down half a step. No Capo. Hope you enjoy. Intro: | | | | |  x2  (repeated for most of the song) I tied your shoes while you sat and watched the rain            Hands folded across your lap and the dull look of peace across your face            Mom down the hall Bible pressed to her chest             When she swore the Devil hides in everything and her room was the only safe haven left She watched us grow through window panes Something in the middle Something in the middle Something in the middle Something’s in the way You held my hand while the wind whistled nocturnes in the dark Something in the middle Something in the middle Something in the middle Something’s in the way Never knew what it meant to be whole and free Something in the middle Something in the middle Something in the middle Something’s in the way Neither one of them mocks if we steer from paths only they can see But sink or swim is all they’d say Your hand rode the wind out the window of the train              We slept in our seats with our knees curled beneath our dirty chins            Dad gripped the bags like they might fly away              And the scenery beyond the glass was liquid we sat and soaked it in I felt your breath along the way I’d hold your hand when the sky fell apart           And you would hold my hand if you felt me slipping back into the dark             I can’t tell from the ground if the sky will fall             I can’t tell from the sky if there’s anybody down there at all It’s empty inns and empty plates

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque des souvenirs d'enfance, mêlés à la douceur des moments partagés et à une nostalgie palpable. Elle parle de cette connexion profonde entre deux personnes, qui se soutiennent mutuellement face aux incertitudes de la vie. On y ressent l’influence de parents protecteurs, mais aussi la lutte contre des peurs et des doutes qui se cachent derrière des façades de sérénité. Le contexte semble être celui de souvenirs avec des proches, des moments de paix entre des tempêtes émotionnelles. Les références à des lieux comme le train ou à des gestes simples comme tenir la main témoignent d'une quête de sécurité et de stabilité au milieu des tumultes. Ce dialogue entre l’enfance et l’adversité souligne l'importance des liens familiaux et des petites choses qui nous aident à naviguer dans la vie.
