Backstabber
Before Their Eyes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Try to hide it
But you can't hide
You're full of lies.
It gets plain to see
You ways have been disguised.
You can't deny it
You've got something to hide
I just want you to know.
You're a backstabber
That's all you'll ever be to me,
I'll waste my words.
What else do you hide behind those eyes?
I've grown so sick of spending my whole life believing your eyes.
You can try to fight it
But you know you're what I despise.
Then when you're down
And that I hope your thoughts.
Are what you regret.
You let it show with every single game you play
And everybody knows.
You're a backstabber
That's all you'll ever be to me,
I'll waste my words.
What else do you hide behind those eyes?
I think it's time
To find what you've done wrong.
You don't know
What you've done
Everytime you lie.
You're just a ghost to me
What else do you hide behind those eyes?
This is the last time.
Backstabber, x2
That's all you'll ever be to me,
I'll waste my words.
You're a backstabber
That's all you'll ever be to me,
I'll waste my words.
What else do you hide behind those eyes?
Backstabber
That's all you'll ever be to me,
You're a backstabber
That's all you'll ever be to me,
I'll waste my words.
I've grown so sick of spending my whole life believing your eyes.
In this song, Before Their Eyes talks about someone who they have grown suspicious of and has come to see what lies behind their eyes. The person they are singing to is someone who is full of lies, and it’s become plain to see that their ways have been disguised. The persona continues to confront the person, telling them that they can’t deny that they have something to hide and that they are a backstabber. The persona is tired of spending their whole life believing the lies that this person has been telling them.
The lyrics are filled with hurt and betrayal. The persona has spent a lot of time with this person and has believed everything that they have said. They are now tired of being played and are calling out the person on their lies. The phrase "what else do you hide behind those eyes?" is a reflection of the persona's desire to know everything that this person has been keeping from them.
The chorus draws all of the hurt and pain together, firmly placing the blame on the backstabber. The persona tells the person that they will always be a backstabber to them, and they will just waste their words trying to convince them otherwise. The song is an angry confrontation of a liar, with the persona letting out all their hurt, anger, and frustration.
