You've Got a Thing for Narcissists
Unveiling the Dark Reflections: "You've Got a Thing for Narcissists" Meaning Revealed
Lyrics
I can't say it will get better
I cannot promise improvement.
Can you believe their lies?
Do you trust the falsehoods they tell?
Everything is still in debt or not better
Things are still unresolved or worsened.
I can't stand around 'til they coerce my head
I won't wait until they manipulate my thoughts.
So I'm bending backwards
I am contorting myself to extremes.
Just to find myself
Engaging in self-discovery through challenging experiences.
What they say is about theirselves
What is said reflects more about them than me.
To feel okay you have to pray
To feel okay, one must resort to prayer.
The cloak and dagger is rather promising
The hidden and secretive approach is enticing.
To ensure we'll never ever get to see him
To prevent us from encountering him.
A spark in the spire fills cathedrals with fire
A metaphorical spark ignites passion and controversy.
It's not my concern if the heretics all burn
I am indifferent if those who oppose conventional beliefs suffer.
What they say is about theirselves
Reiteration that what is spoken is more about them.
To feel okay you have to pray
Prayer is presented as a prerequisite for emotional well-being.
Until the kingdom crumbles down
Waiting for the collapse of established structures.
Until the phantoms wash away
A desire for illusions and deceptions to fade away.
Until the black veil is off your face
Longing for the removal of a metaphorical disguise.
Until the kingdom crumbles down
Repeated anticipation of the downfall of established systems.
Now that your faith is under
Now that your belief system is challenged or in doubt.
Everyone loves you when you're dead
The irony that people show affection only after death.
They'll say the devil is at your neck
Expectations of blame or criticism when facing difficulties.
I'm never falling for that again
A commitment to avoiding previous mistakes.
What they say is about theirselves
Emphasizing the self-centered nature of others' words.
To feel okay you have to pray
Reiteration of the reliance on prayer for emotional well-being.
Again
Repetition of the need to pray.
Again
-'Til you're dead
Continue to pray until death.
What they say is about theirselves
Stressing that what is said reveals more about them.
To feel okay you have to pray
Emphasizing the reliance on prayer for emotional well-being.
I can't stand around 'til they coerce my head
Reiteration of the refusal to succumb to mental manipulation.
So I'm bending backwards
Continuing the struggle for self-discovery against external pressures.
Just to find my fucking self
A strong determination to rediscover oneself.
Get out of this before you make the mistakes I made
Advice to escape a situation before repeating past errors.
