Dear Sergio-- Streetlight Manifesto [Intro] [Horn Break 1:] [Verse 1] Run, run, run all you do is fuckin' run but you?ll never run away from yourself. I know it?s hard but you?ve been there before and you know you?re gonna be there again. I don?t care what the stars may say, they always feed their bullshit to me. It?s kinda sad how you lost what you had and you?re never gonna have it again and so I say: [Chorus] Hey Sergio, you?ve got to get us out of here, and so I say: Hey Sergio, it?s kind of getting hot in here, and so I say: Hey [Horn Break 2:] [Horn Break 1:] [Verse 2] Every other day you don?t care what they say because they always leave you two steps behind. You try to smile and it lasts for a while but they always send you back to the start. Eenie meenie miney mo they shoot down everyone you know and then they leave you there all alone. You wish they?d stop but they never give up and you know deep inside that you?re stuck and so I say: [Chorus] Hey Sergio, you?ve got to get us out of here, and so I say: Hey Sergio, it?s kind of getting hot in here, and so I say: Hey [Horn Break 2:] [Guitar Part:] [Horn Break 1:] [Verse 3] Sergio laughed for the last time today, He said ?It doesn't really bother me: we all have dues to pay Like a man that?s cut off at the knee, he hobbles and hobbles because nothing is free. So you wake up, wake up, wake up but don?t cry because you?ll fuck up your make up and if you do, you won?t get laid, you won?t make money, no you won?t get paid. And you act so free, you act so free, everybody?s happy because you act so free Well you might fool them, but you can?t fool me with your mindless chatter like ?I don?t need them, I don?t need help, I don?t even need to see the end." [Horn Break 2:] [Chorus] Hey Sergio, you?ve got to get us out of here, and so I say: Hey Sergio, it?s kind of getting hot in here, and so I say: Hey [Horn Break 2:] [Outro]

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un sentiment d’angoisse et de lutte intérieure, où le protagoniste, Sergio, se retrouve piégé dans une réalité difficile à affronter. Malgré ses tentatives de fuir ou de sourire, il est constamment ramené à ses propres démons et à la dureté de la vie. Le message tourne autour de la nécessité de sortir de cette impasse, tout en reconnaissant que chacun a des responsabilités et des défis à surmonter. Dans un contexte où l’angoisse et les aspirations de liberté se mêlent, les paroles mettent en lumière le désespoir d’un individu qui essaie de masquer sa souffrance derrière une façade. C'est une réflexion sur la solitude et l'acceptation des difficultés, très accessible et relatable dans notre monde moderne.
