Mirrors
Chai-Town Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Позабыв про всех на час в полной тишине
Посмотрю на себе раньше и ужаснусь
Я не думал раньше что так изменюсь
Я посмотрю на себя в зеркале и кем я стал
Это жизнь мне предовала волчий оскал
Я рано повзрослел ведь жизнь вставляла палки
Раньше смеялся от души сейчас чтоб защитится
Я так хватался за обрыв чтоб в пропость не свалится
В вк 200 друзей из которых знаешь 30
Хочешь общатся как раньше может не получится
Время идёт на скорости я не заметил
Я обернулся знакомых не встретил
Время водаа мы вней по теченью
Отрывок жизни был лишь мне ступенью
In the song "Mirrors" by Chai-Town, the lyrics express a personal reflection and realization of change. The first verse begins with the singer standing in front of a mirror, seeking a moment of solace and quietude. They observe their reflection and are horrified by the person they have become, a feeling they never anticipated. This suggests a sense of disillusionment and disappointment with their own transformation.
Moving on to the second verse, the lyrics delve deeper into the changes the singer has undergone. They see themselves in the mirror and confront the wolfish grin that life has presented to them. The use of the metaphorical "wolfish grin" implies a harsh and difficult reality that has forced them to mature prematurely. They acknowledge that life has thrown obstacles in their path, forcing them to confront their challenges without the luxury of remaining silent or passive.
The lyrics continue by highlighting the contrasts between the past and the present. The singer used to laugh wholeheartedly, but now they find themselves needing to protect themselves. They cling desperately to any available support to avoid falling into the abyss. Additionally, the reference to having 200 friends on a social networking site, but truly knowing only 30 of them, reflects the disconnection and difficulty in maintaining genuine connections in an online world. The lyrics ponder the possibility of returning to the way things used to be, but acknowledge that it may not be possible.
The final paragraph acknowledges the passing of time, but the singer realizes they have not fully recognized its impact until now. They turn around, expecting to see familiar faces, but find that those they once knew have moved on. The lyrics compare time to water, flowing and taking them along with it. They reflect on a certain phase of their life as a stepping stone, suggesting that it was a necessary experience for their personal growth and development.
Overall, "Mirrors" by Chai-Town is a introspective song that delves into the singer's realization of personal change and the difficulties they have faced. It explores themes of disillusionment, maturity, disconnect, and the passage of time.

Я встану перед зеркалом на едине
I will stand in front of the mirror alone
Позабыв про всех на час в полной тишине
Forgetting about everyone for an hour in complete silence
Посмотрю на себе раньше и ужаснусь
I will look at myself from before and be horrified
Я не думал раньше что так изменюсь
I never thought before that I would change so much
Я посмотрю на себя в зеркале и кем я стал
I will look at myself in the mirror and see who I have become
Это жизнь мне предовала волчий оскал
This life has given me a wolf's grin
Я рано повзрослел ведь жизнь вставляла палки
I grew up early because life put sticks in my wheels
Я думал не оправлюсь сидя молча в катафалке
I thought I wouldn't recover while sitting silently in the coffin
Раньше смеялся от души сейчас чтоб защитится
I used to laugh wholeheartedly now to protect myself
Я так хватался за обрыв чтоб в пропость не свалится
I would cling to the edge so as not to fall into the abyss
В вк 200 друзей из которых знаешь 30
On VK, 200 friends of whom you know 30
Хочешь общатся как раньше может не получится

Время идёт на скорости я не заметил
Time flies by, I didn't notice
Я обернулся знакомых не встретил
I turned around, didn't meet any familiar faces
Время водаа мы вней по теченью
Time is like water, we flow with it
Отрывок жизни был лишь мне ступенью
A fragment of life was just a step for me
