Ethereal
Alan-M Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lie cheat steal mislead you
Driven by a toxic love
The one they always warned you of
For a moment it seems clear
But look again I disappear
Like mist upon a mirror
That hides what lies beneath
Than I wanted it to be
The trail of broken hearts
A perfect work of art
Driven by a toxic love
The one I never rise above
For a moment it seems clear
But look again I disappear
Like mist upon a mirror
That hides what lies beneath
The truth was never clearer
Than I wanted it to be
I wonder if I'll stay the same
And if this frozen heart could ever change
Part of me's ashamed of the casualties
But the poison's overtaken the rest of me
The rest of me
The rest of me
Like mist upon a mirror
That hides what lies beneath
The truth was never clearer
Than I wanted it to be
Like mist upon a mirror
That hides what lies beneath
The truth was never clearer
Than I wanted it to be
Mist upon a mirror
The truth was never clearer
Mist upon a mirror
The truth was never clearer
The song "Ethereal" by Alan-M delves into the topic of toxic love and how it can cloud someone's judgment and actions. The lyrics suggest that the singer is willing to do anything to hold onto their partner, including lying, cheating, stealing, and misleading. Even though the singer knows that their love is toxic and people have warned them about it, they cannot resist it.
The lyric "For a moment it seems clear, but look again I disappear, like mist upon a mirror" indicates that the singer's thought process is not consistent and clear. They admit that their view of the situation is obscured like mist on a mirror, making it difficult to see what lies beneath. The chorus repeats the line "The truth was never clearer than I wanted it to be," which shows that the singer is purposely avoiding the truth because it might not align with what they want.
In the bridge, the singer contemplates if they will ever change or if they will always be the same. They express their remorse for the casualties caused by their actions, but the poisonous love has overtaken them. The final repetition of the chorus reinforces the theme of the truth being hidden.
