Mirror
Breaking Mirrors: Unveiling the Journey to Self-Discovery
Lyrics
But you
Expressing a focus on someone
But you
Reiteration, emphasizing the subject
Yeah, yeah
Confirmation or agreement
Yeah, yeah
Reiteration of confirmation or agreement
But you, bring me back
Referring to the influence of the listener
Oh, aye
Expression of acknowledgment or agreement
Since a kid I ain't ever felt like I had a route
Reflecting on a childhood without a clear path
Discovering truth
Searching for truth
Always got more scary when I started getting closer to you
Feeling apprehensive as closeness increases
Now I am you
Identifying with the listener, becoming similar
The difference between you and I, is the scars that'll cover our roots
Highlighting the shared experiences and differences
Saved by the booth
Suggesting salvation or relief through music
Bridging the gaps to the rivers I made when I followed the groups
Addressing the challenges faced during personal growth
What did I do
Expressing uncertainty or regret
Uh
Transition or pause
Ran from the voices inside of my mind telling me to go through with the blade on me
Describing a struggle with inner demons
I did a couple of times thinking something inside would go away and change for me
Engaging in self-destructive behavior to cope
Fiending for feelings of freedom is kicking I just wanna run till I'm safe from me
Desiring escape from emotional pain
But facing myself is the only thing keeping me stuck in this life I could break from
Recognizing self-confrontation as the key to freedom
I ain't know what else to do
Expressing confusion and a lack of alternatives
Brough up unheard in my youth
Describing a challenging upbringing
The people
Pointing out potential harm from close relationships
Closest to me are the ones that would get hurt
Highlighting the lack of space for personal development
Leaving me no room to work on the real
Facing prejudice due to past mistakes
Prejudice building from all of the dirt
Experiencing judgment based on personal history
Thinking that my life intent was for evil
Perceiving others' misunderstanding of intentions
Knew it was me that I had to put first
Recognizing the need for self-prioritization
But I was too busy just feeding their ego's
Being caught up in satisfying others' egos
Sitting on both sides
Being in a dual role, torn between two aspects
The one you call most high, other a deal
Reference to a higher power and a worldly deal
Of taking my own time
Controlling one's perception and goals
Controlling my gold eye, making me feel
Struggling with external influences
Like I couldn't decide
Feeling uncertain about life's authenticity
If this was my own life, if its all real
Questioning the reality of personal experiences
I look to my old tides
Reflecting on past influences and decisions
Reflecting my both eyes, breaking the mirror
Symbolic act of breaking away from self-reflection
But you couldn't be the one to wanna bring me back
Expressing a desire for the listener's support
Cause choosing the world you gave me, wasn't in the plan
Rejecting the intended life path presented
I'm losing all the feelings that you wish I had, uh
Losing emotions expected by others
That I had, uh, that I had
Reiteration of the loss of expected feelings
But you couldn't be the one to wanna bring me back
Repeating the desire for support from the listener
Cause choosing the world you gave me, wasn't in the plan
Rejection of the predetermined life course
I'm losing all the feelings that you wish I had, uh
Continued loss of anticipated emotions
That I had, that I had
Reiteration of the lost emotions
