Blind Myself Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Raised to be
Placed among scared-confused minds
Became one of those without realizing
Not the one-who used to be
Slowly turned somwhere else, some place
Where you can't reach the source of mystery
Unable to let you know that it was enough
There's no you
You got closed inside
With the entire world
So-tere's-no-reason-to-look-outside-anymore
But still not courageusenou to move on
By following the deep tendencies




Merely a mistake
Steep lechase

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Blind Myself's song "Sundown" are full of introspection and regret. The singer in the song talks about how they were raised in a certain way, to be a certain kind of person. They were placed among people who are scared and confused and over time they became just like them, without even realizing it. The person they used to be slowly turned into someone else, someone who is unable to reach the source of mystery, unable to let others know that they have had enough. The singer's world has become so closed off that they no longer see any reason to look outside, but they are too afraid to move on.


The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling to break free from the suffocating world they find themselves in. They are aware that they have gone down the wrong path, but they don't know how to turn back. They talk about following their "deep tendencies" but that this was merely a mistake. The phrase "steep lechase" at the end of the song is open to interpretation, but it may suggest that the singer feels like they are stuck in a downward spiral, unable to escape.


Overall, the song is a powerful evocation of someone who is trapped in a world they no longer want to be a part of but feel unable to escape from. The song speaks to anyone who has ever felt trapped or suffocated by their surroundings and longs to break free.
