Lapse
Black Math Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When all the anger separates us
Smile when you're not afraid to die
But I'm afraid with each goodbye
Lost the sun above my head
Lost myself in things
I said
And war is all you ever seen
And all it means to me
When you are numb
I'm forgiven
I'm forgiven
When you've been gone
Lost in the lapse again
Lost in the lapse again
The lyrics of "Lapse" by Black Math are enigmatic yet stirring. The lines evoke emotions like love, pain, and fear. At the beginning of the song, the singer speaks of the beauty in the face of the person he or she loves, but he or she feels separated from that person because of anger. The singer seems to be afraid of being left alone and can't let go of the person. The second verse brings the theme of war, and the singer seems to believe that the person he or she loves has seen nothing but war behind a screen. It means a lot to the singer, but it's unclear what the meaning of it is. The last two lines of the refrain capture the essence of the song. While the loved one is numb, the singer is forgiven, but once again, the singer is lost in the lapse.
Line by Line Meaning
All the beauty in your face
You are physically attractive
When all the anger separates us
Our disagreements and negative feelings towards each other create distance
Smile when you're not afraid to die
You appear to be okay with the idea of death
But I'm afraid with each goodbye
Saying goodbye to you scares me because I'm not sure if I'll see you again
Lost the sun above my head
I feel like I've lost something important in my life
Lost myself in things I said
I've become so consumed with my own words and actions that I don't know who I am anymore
And war is all you ever seen
Your experiences in life have been filled with conflict and struggle
Your war behind the screen
You fight battles in the digital world behind a screen
And all it means to me
This has an impact on me and affects the way I see things
When you are numb
You don't feel anything emotionally
I'm forgiven
I'm able to let go of any negative feelings I have towards you
When you've been gone
After you've been away for a while
Lost in the lapse again
I feel like I'm falling back into old patterns and losing touch with reality
Lost in the lapse again
Repeating the same mistakes

...youtube spit out this song once in my suggested list (you know, the holy "right side" of the page)... :)
I only clicked on it because my best friend himself had called a piece of his music "Lapse", so the analogy was already made....
It was not a mistake to have discovered this, yes, please let me call it a masterpiece.
No idea who this (sheer unimpressive) band (?) actually is, but I immediately bought this disc (ok, unfortunately only digitally...), but I can likewise still recommend you their 2019 disc "New Game"!!!!
Interesting pop music.
(Just for fun, this is the track "Lapse" by my buddy...).

A little something different, possibly.... (who knows, maybe you can also listen to such sounds???)
Cheers!

@@jinzokrim9979 I come from Germany...
One would like to think that one enjoys a high-quality school education here, including a good command of English...
But you can also cheat your way through... Unfortunately for me, later...
If I had known how important it really is to speak English fluently, I would have learned my fucking vocabulary.... :)
Movies etc. are dubbed here and German is spoken over them, no subtitles, no original sound (usually)...
I learned it with my friends, who all watch everything in English (and partly also made stays abroad, so 1 year Merica etc.), they are free from this language barrier.
When I watch English movies, the dialect, dialect, fine technical words, etc., I do not get the pleasure to enjoy the film and let it affect me and can only hope that the images also speak for the words and the plot, including cunning twists is recognizable ...
If I watch with subtitles, I only read subtitles and the film is broken...
On the Internet, here? Can I via a translation site just write on it and it already fits somehow, if you leave aside where I put commas or how the actual grammar is...
I'll keep cheating my way through, but thank you and you're damn right: just keep writing in English....
With music it's even worse: I only hear the words phonetically...
I know a huge mountain of music of all kinds, I can't recite any lyrics, I never really understood their message....
That's ok for me, other people wonder how I would even recognize the quality of the songs then.... Well, by the music!
It's jinxed.
But I try hard, because all the world speaks English and all the world should be able to speak English, it's the world language and still so simple (if you stay colloquial...)
Just sayin', you know, kinda, wanna, gonna and so on, you know... ;-P
THX you, that i felt free, to write you this little here, well, way to much for a comment...
Glad, you're a nice one.
Peace.
