Reality
Братья Грим Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Запомни мои глаза, а заберу твои
Вновь захлестнет, перевернет и
Скрутит меня твоей волной очумелых дней
Утро в прокуренной комнате
В сонном заброшенном городе
Минор на губах застыл
Только сплошное реалити
Забыть его нету сил.
Странно, герой ранен стрелой
И бронь не спасла его
Что панцирем на груди
Сном наяву впишем главу
В той повести юных лун
Под голос холодных струн.
Утро в прокуренной комнате
В сонном заброшенном городе
Минор на губах застыл
Утро вернется из памяти
Только сплошное реалити
Забыть его нету сил.
The lyrics of the song "Reality" by Братья Грим describe a feeling of being overwhelmed by reality, by the mundanity and frustrations of everyday life. The opening lines suggest the presence of a hero, but he is not able to provide any respite from the overwhelming emotions that the singer is experiencing. Instead, the singer asks the hero to remember their eyes so that he can take the hero's own eyes away. This seems to suggest a desire to escape from reality altogether, to be able to see the world in a different way.
The second verse describes a morning in a smoky, abandoned room in a sleepy city. The singer is stuck in a state of constant reality, unable to forget the way things truly are. The lyrics express frustration and weariness, as though the singer has been struggling for a long time with this feeling of being trapped in the mundane. The image of the hero being wounded by an arrow, despite wearing armor, reinforces the sense that the singer feels helpless against the harsh realities of life.
Overall, the lyrics of "Reality" suggest a desire to escape from the everyday and to find some way to see the world differently. The repeated refrain of "сплошное реалити" ("solid reality") reinforces the sense that the singer feels trapped and unable to escape from the mundanity of life.
