Autumn´s Grey Solace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is this a lie?
You standing there
Acting so alive
I didn't go
I didn't go with you
You were not the truth
I knew
Wane in time
Fall back inside

Where you are so blind

Days ago
I would play with you
Never minding all that's good

Wane in time




Fall back inside
Where you are so blind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Autumn's Grey Solace's song Fractured are filled with powerful emotion and strong imagery. The song is about the feeling of betrayal and rejection when someone you trusted is not what they seemed to be. The opening lyrics, "Is this a lie? You standing there, acting so alive," express the confusion and doubt one feels when they realize they have been deceived. The singer is questioning the authenticity of the person in front of them, wondering if their whole relationship was a lie.


The next line, "I didn't go with you, you were not the truth I knew," reveals that the singer has decided to distance themselves from this person who they now see as fake. They are standing firm in their belief of what is true and what is not, despite the other person's attempts to convince them otherwise.


The lines "Days ago, I would play with you, never minding all that's good" could imply that the singer was aware of the other person's true nature but chose to ignore it for the sake of having an enjoyable time. The chorus, which repeats the lines "Wane in time, fall back inside, where you are so blind," could mean that over time, the truth becomes more apparent and everyone eventually shows their true colors. The singer is now retreating back into themselves where they feel safe, while the other person remains oblivious to their own faults.
