about

When you stare into the mirror and feel like you are looking at someone else. The perfect song for anyone spending a little more time with themselves these days.

lyrics

[Intro]
If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la la

[Verse 1]
Man, swear I’m feeling
Kinda crazy, kinda hazy
And that man in the mirror hates me
I don’t blame him
If I were him I’d hate me too
Most times I feel like a joke
Just between me and you

Just between you and me
I think someone should set that man free
Provoke catastrophe
Could swear he’s not the enemy
Could swear he’s not a part of me
Could swear he talks to me subconsciously
I guarantee that man someday is gonna be the end of me

[Chorus]
He says

If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la la

If you don’t wanna be me
If you just wanna fear me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la

If you think that I am wrong
Why you always play along
Why don’t you leave me alone
Get a mirror of your own

If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la

[Verse 2]
Man, I swear you’re just
My fragile ego, my fragile issues
This place I built, my fragile Igloo
It’s full of mirrors, so I can see you
So I hear you, so even when I turn around
I still can’t be you, I still don’t fear you
I still can’t feel you, I still conceal you
I still believe one day you might just disappear too
Would a magic trick do? Would you just come too soon?
Break out of your own cocoon, guess you got nothing better to do

Remember when
You said that I was just crazy
Could swear I was just lazy
Sometimes you feared for my safety
Somehow you thought this might break me
You’re wrong, this don’t even phase me
The things that broke me once, made me
You haven’t talked to me lately?
I went from zero to eighty

[Chorus]
If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la la

If you don’t wanna be me
If you just wanna fear me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la

If you think that I am wrong
Why you always play along
Why don’t you leave me alone
Get a mirror of your own

If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la

If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la la

If you don’t wanna be me
If you just wanna fear me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la

If you think that I am wrong
Why you always play along
Why don’t you leave me alone
Get a mirror of your own

If you don’t wanna hear me
If you don’t wanna see me
Just close your eyes and say
La la la la la la
