Visions
Arjans Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your eyes were bright, looking like they would change my life,
cnd that was true. But not in a good way, telling everyone how I wasn't feeling okay.
Why did you change me? Now everyday your lies still chase me, break me, make me feel like shit.
Love really made me blind, now I am, stressed out and feeling like:
I'm never good enough, I've aways talked too much people always judge me.
But deep down I know it ain't true. I just need to move through.

My vision betrayed me.

I never saw, what you did, in the dark.
My heart is broken. The pieces won't heal.
You will never know. how you made me feel.

Everyday you know, that I'll have you always on my mind.
Can't get you out of my head, even when I try. I'll be thinking of you like a lie.
Because I know it is right, it's not really nice. To talk behind a back, a lie always makes it road.
cnd this road begins with gossip, It's the starting of the trip.
Because later on people'll start to question facts, cnd then your lie comes back.
Thats when you know your wrecked,

My vision betrayed me.
I never saw, what you did, in the dark.
My heart is broken. The pieces won't heal.
You will never know. how you made me feel.

I know when i say this, you'll get more attention, cnd that makes it harder for me to forget things.
But now I'll never forget this, and maybe thats good. Because it is a warning, of what I shouldn't do.
Since in the start, I lied a lot too, But today i realized, it aint really good!
So maybe I deserved your lies, So I could realize,
What is wrong, and What is right.
Even when I trust somebody, I cannot really trust ‘em blind.

My vision betrayed me.
I never saw, what you did, in the dark.

My heart is broken. The pieces won't heal.
You will never know. how you made me feel. (2x)
