Comment ne pas penser en écoutant Cruel Country à la énième tuerie de masse d’Uvalde au Texas ? I love my country stupid and cruel Red, white, and blue chante Jeff Tweedy sur la chanson qui donne son titre à ce double album. « It could be worse » peut-on lire dans The loft, le studio de Wilco. Alors oui, on est tous un peu fatigués du monde dans lequel on vit, de certaines futilités et déceptions dans les relations humaines. La voix chancelle sur I’m ashamed of who I am when I’m in pain. Et l’on se souvient alors d’une phrase soulignée dans le journal de Stendhal, « c’est un moyen de se consoler que de regarder sa douleur de près. »
Cruel Country de Wilco est disponible chez dBpm Records depuis le 27 mai.
Discographie
WilcoWilco – Tired of Taking It Out On You
I’m tired of taking it out on you
Tired of needing to
Freeze my warmth away
Tear the tears out of your quiet faceI can’t face
The way I am with you
Or replace
The bite I’m chewing through
Oh I’m tired
Of taking it out on youI crave
Crazy times again
Our nights, our nights
Would never end
I’m ashamed
Of who I am
When I’m in painSo I strive
To the nearest star
Street light
Over an idling car
Move across the seat
I’m going to need
You to drive these last few miles
‘Cause I’m tired of taking it out on youOoo
Ooo
Freeze my warmth away
Tear the tears out of your quiet faceI can’t take
The way I am with you
Or recreate
Things we used to do
I’m tired
Of taking it out on youOoo
Ooo
Ooo
I’m tired of taking it out on you
