Ricochet
Unveiling Life's Disguises: Ricochet by Vampire Mansion
Lyrics
You've been waiting on calls to give yourself a solution for how you unfold
You've been waiting for solutions to unravel your own issues
Does it feel good to always wear that disguise
Is there satisfaction in consistently masking your true self?
Settling's useless
Choosing to settle is ineffective
Empty appearance
An outward display that lacks substance
Just a tired face in reality
Appearing fatigued and worn out in reality
All of the days you're
Every day, contemplating alternative places to invest your energy
Thinking about where
Reflecting on where you'd prefer to allocate your efforts
You would rather spend all your energy
Spending all your vitality elsewhere
Time is all that we have
Time is our most valuable possession
Don't waste yours feeling bad about their opinions
Don't waste time being affected by others' judgments
I hope you forget, you forget one day
Wishing for the ability to eventually forget
I hope the worst just feels like a dream
Hoping that the worst experiences will eventually seem unreal
Wearing a smile to, make them happy
Pretending to be happy to satisfy others
You shouldn't live your life to agree
Not living solely to conform or please others
Would it tear you apart to see yourself in a mirror with no control
Would facing your true self without control cause distress?
Is it better than losing the spark in your in your eyes
Is it preferable to maintain a facade than lose your passion?
Settling's useless
Choosing to settle lacks effectiveness
Shallow behavior
Superficial actions or attitudes
Just so tired facing reality
Weary of confronting the truth in reality
All of the nights you're
Nightly contemplation of where your true freedom lies
Thinking about where
Considering where you envision your liberated self
You would see yourself when you're finally free
Imagining your ideal state of being when unshackled
Half the time I wonder
Constantly questioning if personal improvement will ever happen
If I'll ever get myself together
Uncertainty about self-improvement
You know I've fallen so much I
Admitting to multiple failures but persisting in self-effort
Know I'm still seeing myself try
Continuing to strive despite repeated setbacks
