Mirrors
Reflections of Despair: Unveiling the Struggle in 'Mirrors'
Lyrics
You're trying to choke what's left behind
You are attempting to suppress or control what remains from the past.
Your life's as fucked up as in the movies you don't like
Your life is in disarray, mirroring the chaotic scenarios depicted in movies you dislike.
Just without all those happy endings
Contrary to movies, your life lacks the expected happy resolutions.
Your face shot in a closeup, your head wrapped in a letter
Your face is portrayed in detail, connected with a letter, suggesting emotional involvement.
And you wish this was this place, a better you, not faking smiles
You desire a better place and a genuine version of yourself, avoiding artificial smiles.
I feel like you always knew that
It seems like you always had an awareness of these feelings.
You don't want to lose it, you need to get through this
You are reluctant to let go; there is a necessity to overcome the challenges.
You're escalating inside
Internal conflicts and emotions are intensifying.
You want to control it, taking this step's gonna prove it
You aim to manage and demonstrate control; taking a decisive step will affirm this.
And if you call for, I will put it on my shoulders
If you seek assistance, the speaker is willing to bear the burden on their shoulders.
Yes, I know you want to change
Acknowledgment that you desire change.
But I guess, you're gonna do it on a different day
Change is anticipated, but the timing might not align with the current moment.
And I just know that situation is so bad
Acknowledgment that the situation is dire or challenging.
You better be without these fears, so stop pretending
Encouragement to confront fears and stop pretending.
When the world weighs heavily
During difficult times, maintain belief in your moral principles.
Believe in your integrity
Advice to uphold one's integrity when facing overwhelming challenges.
Now, seeing all these postcards on your walls, thinking back when
Reflection on past excitement through postcards on walls.
You were so excited, your heart is beating faster
Recollection of a time when your heart raced with excitement.
And memories are floating through your mind
Memories resurface, occupying your thoughts.
Soaking all your precious time
Time is consumed by reminiscing about precious moments.
Try to remove it
An urging to try to eliminate negativity or burdens.
Got nothing to prove it
Lack of evidence to support a claim or statement.
You don't want to lose it
Reluctance to lose something important.
You need to get through this
A repeated expression of the need to overcome challenges.
A moment to hold on
A moment to persevere and endure.
You've struggled for so long
Despite prolonged struggles, there is an acknowledgment of perseverance.
But anyway, all bets were off and you knew this
Regardless, previous expectations or assumptions are no longer valid.
And if you call for, I will put it on my shoulders
If requested, the speaker is willing to bear the burden on their shoulders.
Yes, I know you want to change
A repetition of the desire for change.
But I guess, you're gonna do it on a different day
Anticipation of change, with timing remaining uncertain.
And I just know that situation is so bad
Recognition of the severity of the current situation.
You better be without these fears, so stop pretending
A repeated call to face fears and cease pretense.
When the world weighs heavily
During challenging times, maintain belief in one's principles.
You face a long ride, playing through
A journey through a difficult phase, navigating through.
This scene's a nightmare, talking to
A challenging scene or situation is like a nightmare.
Your friends, they've spent a lot
Engaging in conversations with friends who have invested much.
This mirror knows just nothing about you
A mirror symbolizing lack of understanding or reflection of oneself.
Another hospital ride makes it hard to look at the bright side
Hospital visits make it difficult to focus on positive aspects.
And you got so much more to throw in
Despite challenges, there is a reservoir of untapped potential.
From the moment this is over
Anticipation of a future beyond the current struggles.
And if you call for, I will put it on my shoulders
If requested, the speaker is willing to bear the burden on their shoulders.
Yes, I know you want to change
A repeated expression of the desire for change.
But I guess, you're gonna do it on a different day
Acknowledgment that change might occur in the future.
And I just know that situation is so bad
Recognition of the severity of the current situation.
You better be without these fears, so stop pretending
A final call to face fears and stop pretending during challenging times.
When the world weighs heavily
