CIRCRUSH feat. GUMI Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

THE CLOCK STOPPED TICKING FOREVER AGO
HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN UP?
IDK :-(I CAN'T GET A GRIP, BUT I CAN'T LET GO
THERE WASN'T ANYTHING TO HOLD ON TO, THO

WHY CAN'T I SEE??? WHY CAN'T I SEE???
ALL THE COLORS THAT YOU SEE??
PLEASE CAN I BE PLEASE CAN I BE
COLORFUL AND... free?

WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?!
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE--
WHY, I'M SWITCHING FASTER THAN THE CHANNELS ON TV
I'M black THEN I'M white NO!!!
SOMETHING ISN'T RIGHT!!
MY ENEMY'S INVISIBLE, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIGHT
THE TREMBLING FEAR IS MORE THAN I CAN TAKE
WHEN I'M UP AGAINST THE ECHO IN THE MIRROR
ECHO

I'm gonna burn my house down into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now and never look back
I'm gonna burn my house down into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now and never look back
I'm gonna burn my house down into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now and never look back
I'm gonna burn my house down into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now and never look back
I'm gonna burn my house down and never look back
and never look back

AND NEVER LOOK BACK

WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?!
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE--
WHY, I'M SWITCHING FASTER THAN THE CHANNELS ON TV
I'M black, THEN I'M white NO!!!
SOMETHING ISN'T RIGHT!!
MY ENEMY'S INVISIBLE, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIGHT
WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?!
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE--
WHY, I'M SWITCHING FASTER THAN THE CHANNELS ON TV
I'M black, THEN I'M white NO!!!
SOMETHING ISN'T RIGHT!!
MY ENEMY'S INVISIBLE, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIGHT
THE TREMBLING FEAR IS MORE THAN I CAN TAKE
WHEN I'M UP AGAINST THE ECHO IN THE MIRROR




THE TREMBLING FEAR IS MORE THAN I CAN TAKE
WHEN I'M UP AGAINST THE ECHO IN THE MIRROR

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to CIRCRUSH feat. GUMI's song "ECHO" express a sense of confusion, fear, and a longing for freedom. The beginning of the song starts with a clock that has stopped ticking, which signifies a feeling of being stuck in time. The singer then expresses their struggle to grasp onto something while feeling like they can't let go. They long to see the colors that someone else sees and wish to be colorful and free.


The second half of the song delves deeper into the singer's inner turmoil, as they feel like they are constantly switching and can't control it. They mention enemies that are invisible and that they don't know how to fight against, leading to a feeling of trembling fear. The repeated line, "up against the echo in the mirror," implies that the singer is struggling with their own reflection and possibly dealing with their inner demons.


The chorus is a repeated "what the hell's going on?!" which is a cry for help and understanding. The repeated line of burning down their house and running away could symbolize a desire to start anew and escape the past. Overall, "ECHO" is a powerful song about struggling with one's identity and mental health.

The clock stopped ticking forever ago
How long have I been up ? I don't know
I can't get a grip , but I can't let go
There wasn't anything to hold on to ,tho

Why can't I see
Why can't I see ?
All the colors
That you see ?

Please can I be
Please can I be ?
Colorful and free ?

What the hell's going on ?!
Can someone tell me please
Why I'm switching faster than the channels on TV ?

I'm black , then I'm white
No , something isn't right !
My enemy's invisible , I don't know how to fight

The trembling fear is more then I can take
When I'm up against
The echo in the mirror

ECHO

I'm gonna burn my house down
Into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now
And never look back

I'm gonna burn my house down
Into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now
And never look back

I'm gonna burn my house down
Into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now
And never look back

I'm gonna burn my house down
Into an ugly black
I'm gonna run away now
And never look back

I'm gonna burn my house down
And never look back
And never look back
And never look back !

What the hell's going on ?!
Can someone tell me please
Why I'm switching faster than the channels on TV ?

I'm black , then I'm white
No , something isn't right !
My enemy's invisible , I don't know how to fight

What the hell's going on ?!
Can someone tell me please
Why I'm switching faster than the channels on TV ?

I'm black , then I'm white
No , something isn't right !
My enemy's invisible , I don't know how to fight

The trembling fear is more then I can take
When I'm up against
The echo in the mirror

The trembling fear is more then I can take
When I'm up against
The echo in the mirror

A colorblind person trying to find and kill a spider in their room

“I’m black then I’m white”
“My enemy’s invisible I don’t know how to fight”
“The trembling fear is more than I can to”
“I’m gonna burn my house down”
“I’m gonna run away now”

Hmm



@reemfan5752

The peeps stopped fighting
Never ago
How long has it been going?
I don't know
I can't see white
But I can't see blue
It's purple and brown
But they won't tell you

Why can't I see
Why can't I see
The same colors that you see?
Please, just can we
Please, just can we
Stop fighting, seriously?

What the hell's going on, can someone tell me please--
Why that multicolor dress is airing on TV
It's blue, then it's white
No! Something isn't right
It's just a stupid dress, so how come
it started a fight?

The controversy
Is more than I can take
When I'm up against
That dumb blue-black/white-gold dress
dressssssssssssssssssss

I'm gonna burn that dress down
But it won't stop the fight
I'm gonna run away now
So stay away, all right?
I'm gonna burn that dress down
But it won't stop the fight
I'm gonna run away now
So stay away, all right?
I'm gonna burn that dress down
But it won't stop the fight
I'm gonna run away now
So stay away, all right?
I'm gonna burn that dress down
But it won't stop the fight
I'm gonna run away now
So stay away, all right?
I'm gonna burn that dress down
So stay away, all right?
Stay away, all right?
BLUE BLACK, GOLD AND WHITE

What the hell's going on, can someone tell me please--
Why that multicolor dress is airing on TV
It's blue, then it's white
No! Something isn't right
It's just a stupid dress, so how come
it started a fight?

WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON, CAN SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE--
WHY THAT MULTICOLOR DRESS IS AIRING ON TV

SOMETHING ISN'T RIGHT!!
IT'S JUST A STUPID DRESS, SO HOW COME
