Lyrics
As if, as if
Feeling a sense of unreality or disbelief
As if it matters
Questioning the significance of a situation
Innit, innit ‘what happens, happens’?
Expressing a nonchalant attitude towards events, suggesting acceptance of fate
As if as if’s were enough
Questioning the adequacy of mere expressions or intentions
Is it, is it a fit of angst we see
Wondering if a display of anxiety is evident
Is it a bit the fear of failure
Suggesting a fear of failing or falling short
It is as if we gave up
Describing a feeling of surrender or resignation
It’s like we lack nothing
Claiming a state of completeness or contentment
Kind of kind and so mind numbing
Characterizing a situation as pleasant but mentally dull
It’s kind of like losing touch
Expressing a sensation of losing connection or understanding
And I can’t find me inside
Feeling a sense of self-displacement
I hide in an empty smile
Concealing true emotions behind a fake smile
And I have left me behind
Perceiving a personal detachment or abandonment
In words that aren’t mine
Using words that feel disconnected from personal experiences
The scene, the scene - the screen’s endless
Commenting on the overwhelming nature of the environment or situation
In style in style... check out my new stress
Mockingly showcasing a new source of stress with a sense of style
I’ve seen this stream – did I ditto that?
Reflecting on familiarity and repetition in life
Like I really care!
Expressing indifference or lack of concern
Pretend pretend life’s a bluescreen
Portraying life as a facade, suggesting pretense or artificiality
upload dreams in your B-movie
Describing the act of escaping reality through imagination or false scenarios
its kinda like life - but not
Comparing the depicted life to reality with a sense of disparity
And I can’t find me inside
Reiterating the feeling of self-loss
I hide in an empty smile
Continuing to hide genuine emotions behind a superficial smile
And I have left me behind
Emphasizing the persistent sense of self-abandonment
In words that aren’t mine
Reinforcing the idea of using words that do not resonate with personal identity
