Embracing Illusions: Unveiling the Meaning Behind Hush Bewlay's Emulator
Lyrics
Stretching from the hello to the handshake
Attempting to bridge the gap from initial greeting to a more personal connection.
Everything about me was a lie
Admitting that one's entire identity has been false.
Any shape I bend myself in
Adapting to different forms or roles in an attempt to be of value.
Trying to be useful
Striving to serve a purpose or contribute positively.
You never know you're wrong until you try
Realizing mistakes only through experimentation and experience.
It's my job to pretend
Acknowledging the duty to feign emotions or roles.
Thank you, Emulator
Expressing gratitude to an entity named Emulator.
Talking up a world of brilliant color
Describing a vivid and vibrant world through words.
Everything around me going pale
Surroundings losing vibrancy or significance.
Smiling through my teeth
Putting on a fake smile despite inner feelings.
Can you hear my heartbeat
Possibly questioning if one's emotions are perceivable.
You expect the best
Having high expectations initially.
Then you expect to fail
Anticipating success but then expecting failure.
It's that feeling again
Experiencing a familiar emotion or situation.
Thank you
Reiterating gratitude.
It's my job to pretend
Reiterating the role of pretending.
It's my job to pretend
Repeating the acknowledgment of the role.
Thank you, Emulator
Expressing thanks again to Emulator.
That's the funny thing about escape
Reflecting on the ironic nature of attempting to escape.
You can offer it to anyone
Offering escape to others as something they refuse.
And it's one thing that they won't take
Becoming what one has been trying to avoid.
You become what you've been running from
Addressing the consequence of running from one's true self.
It's my job to pretend
Reaffirming the duty to pretend.
Thank you, Emulator
Expressing gratitude once more to Emulator.
Welcome to the party
Welcoming others to a gathering or event.
This is progress
Noting progress or advancement in a situation.
Catching my words hang
Observing the impact of spoken words on a scene.
At every scene
Words lingering in the atmosphere at each occurrence.
Hello celebration
Greeting a celebration or positive event.
We crawl into conversation
Engaging in meaningful conversation amidst the noise of technology.
Underneath the sound of machines
Describing a situation where mechanical sounds dominate.
Does this make me a friend
Pondering if a specific action defines one as a friend.
Let's play instigator
Suggesting a playful role of encouraging conflict or change.
It's my job to pretend
Reaffirming the obligation to pretend.
It's my job to pretend
Repeating the acknowledgment of the role.
It's my job to pretend
-It's my job to pretend
-Thank you, Emulator
Expressing thanks once more to Emulator.
