Her Gaze
Lost in Love's Illusion: Her Gaze Unveiled
Lyrics
Kinda funny how
Reflecting on the irony or humor in a situation.
I wake up in the morning
Beginning the day, possibly indicating a fresh start.
Put a light to my mouth leave
Starting the day with a metaphorical "light" (cigarette?) and leaving home without a clear sense of self.
My house not knowing
Uncertainty about one's identity and purpose.
Who I am, if I'm really gonna make it
Expressing doubts about the future and success.
Put a smile on my face
Forcing a smile despite internal struggles.
But you know I gotta fake it
Maintaining a facade or hiding true feelings.
See the world through
Perceiving the world through a distorted lens, possibly due to substance use.
This haze that I'm smoking
Indulging in a coping mechanism, like smoking, to deal with challenges.
Tell you sommething and you laugh
Sharing something sincere, but not being taken seriously.
But I wish I weren't joking
Expressing a desire for authenticity.
And when I tell you
Professing love genuinely.
That I love you yeah I mean it
Feeling unreciprocated emotions.
But when i look into your eyes
Noting a disconnect when looking into someone's eyes.
I cna tell you don't see it
Highlighting the lack of recognition or understanding from the other person.
Cos they say that life
Exploring the idea that life is shaped by one's actions.
Is what you make it
Contrasting the idealized notion with the harsh reality of life.
But it don't work out
Acknowledging the unpredictability and challenges of contemporary life.
Like that these days
Expressing that things don't always go as planned.
Everything that you
Warning about the potential exploitation of one's vulnerabilities.
Are just know she'll take it
Implying that someone will take advantage of weaknesses.
So you spend your time
Spending time ensnared in the captivating gaze of another person.
Trapped in her gaze
Gettin dark and you
As the day progresses, turning to alcohol to cope.
Know I start drinking
Indulging in drinking to numb thoughts.
Take a sip from this cup just
Using a drink as a distraction from introspection.
To stop myself thinking
Seeking escape to another mental state.
Hope to slip to another dimension
Yearning for undivided attention from someone special.
Somewher I can have all of your attention
Dreaming of a better, more fulfilling reality.
I got to sleep and then I start dreaming
Entering a dream state during sleep.
But I'll wake up in the middle
Interrupted dreams, possibly due to inner turmoil.
Of the night just screaming
Nightmares leading to waking in distress.
Roll over just to hold you a little tighter
Yearning for a loved one's presence, even in dreams.
Your not there and the pin
Feeling the absence of the loved one.
In my head burns brighter
Intense mental anguish or turmoil.
Cos they say that life
Reiterating the theme that life's outcomes are shaped by one's actions.
Is what you make it
Highlighting the disparity between expectations and reality.
But it don't work out
Reinforcing that life doesn't always follow planned trajectories.
Like that these days
Emphasizing the challenges and uncertainties of contemporary existence.
Everything that you
Warning about potential exploitation and loss of individuality.
Are just know she'll take it
Emphasizing the inevitability of surrendering to the captivating gaze of another.
So you spend your
Investing time and energy in the allure of another person's gaze.
Time trapped in her gaze
