Song Meaning of “Bastille Days” by Technasia
“Bastille Days” by Technasia speaks of the struggle of finding a balance between joy and pain in relationships. It starts off with the protagonist feeling lost in their life and weary from searching for a new path. They are nostalgic for the “Bastille days” they had with their partner, longing for the joy, passion and spark that disappeared from their relationship. The lyrics paint the feeling of being stuck and wishing to turn things around, but being unsure of how.
The verse speaks of the protagonist realizing that it’s over, and feeling the pain of that realization, but at the same time wanting to keep hold of the memories of the “Bastille days”. The chorus is a call to action to make things better and fight for the relationship. They plead for a way to go back to the past, and the bridge is a desperate plea for someone to help patch things up with their love.
The song speaks of finding balance between joy and sorrow in a relationship, and of being determined to make things better no matter what. It encourages us all to try and have faith in love when times get tough.
