Mirage
Ceo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't know much about this world
But don't mind us, don't mind us
We play the odds to one
If we go out we blush
You play on just like you want
Still on a rush, still in a crush
Coming down just one more time
You're waving from the cross

When you see love, I see a mirage
You sway, roll about
We're too young to rush
Laying your body, start
Only tell you ways I grip
I slide when you say run

Don't know much about this world
New ways are new, like prince and you
The chill light of the void is slowly shining through
You know so much about this world
And still so blue, you're kind of screwed
And if you think I do

When you see love, I see a mirage
You sway, roll about
We're too young to rush
Laying your body, start




Only tell you ways I grip
I slide when you say run

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ceo's song "Mirage" express a feeling of being lost and unsure in the world, but trying to enjoy life regardless. The singer acknowledges their own lack of knowledge and experience, but suggests that this doesn't matter because they are still taking chances and having fun. They reference someone else who seems to have more understanding of the world, but also appears to be struggling. The line "coming down just one more time" could refer to drug use or some other form of escape, which could suggest that both the singer and the other person are trying to avoid facing reality.


The chorus of the song suggests that the singer and the other person have different perspectives on love. The singer sees love as a mirage, something that is not real, whereas the other person seems to be caught up in it. The mention of being "too young to rush" could imply that the relationship is not serious, and the emphasis on physicality ("laying your body, start / only tell you ways I grip / I slide when you say run") further suggests that it is more about pleasure than love.


Overall, "Mirage" is a song that explores the themes of youth, uncertainty, and escaping reality. The lyrics portray a world where nothing is quite what it seems and people are just trying to make the most of their limited experience.
