Hmm hmm
Give me the recipe
That I find peace
Tell me about you, tell me about us
We can put everything off until tomorrow
Baby, I'm yours, if you're worth it
Tell me about tomorrow
Say it if you love me, I'll do the same
Yeah, I need it, come on
Come lay your hands on all my sorrows
I need it
Baby, tell me everything that's going on in your head
My heart is in pieces, hah
Baby, tell me everything that's going on in your head
My heart is in pieces
I know, I don't put much effort into it
I try, but I don't have the strength anymore
I'm always trying
But you
To carry
For that
I would like us to go where no one expects us
I would even say where no one hears us
Don't ask me to take it easy
I want to feel every moment
I have already turned the pages of
My past full of tasks, but
I like everything you give off, yeah
And all that involves
Where I'm going, I don't know
The main thing is with you
(Say it out loud
I'm waiting for it, I'm waiting for it)
Where I'm going, I don't know
The main thing is in your arms
I know, I don't put much effort into it
I try, but I don't have the strength anymore
I'm always trying
But you, I know you have the shoulders
To carry all my faults
For that, I can love you more
But you, I know you have the shoulders
To carry all my faults
For that, I can love you more

en miettesin pieces / shattered

En miettes literally translates to "in crumbs" or "in pieces." It's a vivid and evocative expression used to describe something that is broken, shattered, or falling apart.

In this song, the artist sings, "Moi, j'ai le cœur en miettes," which means "My heart is in pieces." This powerful phrase conveys a deep sense of heartbreak and emotional fragility, making it a memorable and impactful word choice for learners.

Nej's "En Miettes" is a heartfelt plea for connection and reassurance when you're feeling a bit broken inside. The title itself, "En Miettes" [In Pieces], perfectly sets the mood for a song about vulnerability. She's looking for a recipe to find peace again, asking her partner to "Donne-moi la recette / Que je retrouve la paix" [Give me the recipe / So I can find peace again].

She's ready to commit, saying "Bébé, je suis la tienne, si t'en vaut la peine" [Baby, I'm yours, if you're worth it], but she needs to hear that love back. She asks, "Dis-le si tu m'aimes, j'en ferai de même" [Say it if you love me, I'll do the same], because her heart is "en miettes" [in pieces]. It's a beautiful, honest look at needing someone to lean on, someone who has the strength to carry all her flaws, as she sings, "Mais toi, je sais que t'as les épaules / Pour porter tous mes défauts" [But you, I know you have the shoulders / To carry all my flaws].
