Miracle
Colorblind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before you throw me to the floor
I want to justify myself a little bit
Before I´m walking out the dor
For good
Chorus
Oh what a Miracle
Oh what a Miracle
Wish I didn´t care
So much
My brain is liquid like your lemonade
Big jellyfish behind my eyes
My head is loaded with the crab
From yesterdays
I am in permanent disquise
Chorus
I am an ugly girl
I´ve got a stupid face
You always know what´s right
And wrong
I don´t regret the words.express yourself
It´s just a scar across my chin
But I´ve still got my crooked teeth and
Greenish eyes
I need a place where I fit in
Chorus
The lyrics of Colorblind's song Miracle depict the emotional turmoil that comes with a failing relationship. The singer of the song expresses a desire to be acknowledged and loved by their partner before they leave for good. The line "I want a kiss across my painted lips before you throw me to the floor" paints a picture of a desperate need for affection from the person they love as they feel like they are being thrown away.
The singer also mentions feeling misunderstood and wanting to justify themselves before leaving. They admit to having made mistakes but ask for a chance to explain themselves. The chorus contains the repeated use of the phrase "oh what a miracle" which can be interpreted as a sense of disbelief that they have made it this far in the relationship despite their flaws and mistakes.
The second verse goes on to describe the singer's mental state as being "liquid" and "loaded with the crab" from previous days. This could suggest that they have been struggling with mental health issues or a pre-existing condition that has made it difficult for them to navigate their relationship. They feel like they are in "permanent disguise" which speaks to a sense of not being able to be true to themselves in the relationship.
In the end, the singer describes themselves as an "ugly girl" with a "stupid face" suggesting that they have low self-esteem and that their partner knows better than them. They mention a physical scar but highlight that they still have their "crooked teeth and greenish eyes" which suggests that they are searching for something to hold onto, something that gives them a sense of identity and self-worth.

I want a kiss across my painted lips
I want you to show me affection before you leave me
Before you throw me to the floor
Before you reject me and abandon me
I want to justify myself a little bit
I want to defend myself and explain my actions
Before I´m walking out the door
Before I leave for good and never come back
Oh what a Miracle
It's amazing that I'm still here
I´m still standing here
I've survived despite everything
Wish I didn´t care
I wish I didn't feel so much pain and sadness
My brain is liquid like your lemonade
My thoughts are confused and unstable
Big jellyfish behind my eyes
I feel a lot of pressure and confusion in my head
My head is loaded with the crab
My mind is filled with negative thoughts and memories
From yesterdays
From the past
I am in permanent disquise
I feel like I'm always hiding my true self
I am an ugly girl
I feel unattractive and unwanted
I´ve got a stupid face
I feel like my appearance is foolish
You always know what´s right
You seem to have all the answers
And wrong
And all the mistakes I've made
I don´t regret the words.express yourself
I don't regret speaking my mind
It´s just a scar across my chin
It's just a minor injury or setback
But I´ve still got my crooked teeth and
But I still have flaws and imperfections
Greenish eyes
My unique and uncommon eye color
I need a place where I fit in
I want to belong somewhere
