New Order / Doubts Even Here
Movement (1981, Factory Records)
Archétype de la new wave, Doubts Even Here concentre toute la beauté de la dernière étincelle de vie qui continue à palpiter au plus profond du désespoir. Je suis particulièrement sensible à la cadence apportée par deux petites notes de synthé, dont la première se devine plus qu'elle ne s'entend. Du reste, tout le morceau n'est qu'une douloureuse répétition, d'une noirceur absolue. À la question du pourquoi d'une existence qui n'est que souffrance, la new wave n'offre aucune échappatoire. Elle enferme, oppresse, étouffe, enserre la tête dans un étau et martèle le bruit que fait le mal de vivre. Votre mal de vivre.

Paroles
Those steps which seem to take a lifetime
When eyes just turn and stare
The day begins, collapsing without warning
You fade from sight - there's nothing there
All hope allowed, it calls in answer daily
The questions are on your side
Deeply moved, beyond all consolation
You felt the pulse now and the cry
In my mind, thoughts are becoming clearer
I'm watching every move you make
Counting time spent in observation
A single blow a false mistake
Then you revealed to me
All that I need to know now
(The close went down to times
too, too much behind us)
Then please don't turn away,
Why can't I talk to you now?
(The number of forgotten years
Where my honor isn't deepest
Grows the deepest feeling and it
Grieved for safety and despair)
There's nowhere left to go
Where is this taking her and how?
(The torish threats forevermore
Over our natural favor
And us and he's and I'll fall
Far in it, and it sees enough
In our failures and it's not time.)
There's nothing more I want
To know beyond your trust now
(I missed his promised time again
For my friend)
Don't throw our joy away
Why must you just you leave now?
(Has God forgotten to approach us?
Has He remembered to not despise us?)
Memories are all that's left
I need you near to me now
(There, now, now, don't come to mind my deeds
And call out in defiance of times gone by).
