Disappear
Concrete Castles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My mind is runnin'
You're watching while I plummet
It's like you want me to lose

Turned into nothin'
Just turnin' in my stomach
I fade away like a bruise
You're underneath the skin that I'm in
Like an ice pick
My ears will start to bleed if you speak
So be quiet
You could try to read what I think
Like a psychic
Like a psychic

You'll disappear like it's magic
I don't need to hide from what I can't see
Kept you around it was tragic
But you would never know what was up my sleeve

You're in my glass box
Ready or not
Give it your best shot
Did I get the message across?

Tie all the the loose knots
You can't break outta these locks
And I'm not letting you go cause

You're underneath the skin that I'm in
Like an ice pick
My ears will start to bleed if you speak
So be quiet
You could try to read what I think
Like a psychic
Like a psychic

You'll disappear like it's magic
I don't need to hide from what I can't see
Kept you around it was tragic
But you would never know what was up my sleeve

Disappear vanish right off the earth
Now you're gonna see every penny I'm worth
Disappear you're the star of the show
And nobody knows
Where you're gonna go
Where you're gonna go
Where you're gonna go

You'll disappear like it's magic
I don't need to hide from what I can't see
Kept you around it was tragic
But you would never know what was up my sleeve

You're underneath the skin that I'm in
Like an ice pick
My ears will start to bleed if you speak
So be quiet
You could try to read what I think
Like a psychic





You'll disappear like it's magic

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Concrete Castles' song "Disappear" convey a sense of frustration and a desire to be free from someone who is causing harm and negative emotions. The singer's mind is racing, and they feel like the person they are addressing wants them to fail. The situation is affecting them deeply, turning their stomach and causing them to feel like they are fading away, just like a bruise. The person being addressed is described as someone who penetrates the singer's emotions, like an ice pick under their skin. The singer's ears will start to bleed if this person speaks, indicating the harmful impact of their words. The singer wants them to be quiet and stop trying to invade their thoughts, comparing their ability to read minds to that of a psychic.


Despite the negative impact this person has, the singer suggests that they will disappear like magic, implying that they will find a way to escape their influence. The singer no longer feels the need to hide from what they cannot see, suggesting a realization that they don't need to be controlled by fear or uncertainty. While the person has been kept around and their presence has been tragic, they remain oblivious to what the singer has planned or is capable of doing.


In the last verse, the singer asserts that the person they speak to will ultimately disappear from their life completely, as if vanishing from the face of the earth. The singer declares that they will now see their true worth, emphasizing that their value extends beyond what this person may have believed. The person is described as the star of the show, but their future actions and whereabouts are unknown. The repetition of the phrase "You'll disappear like it's magic" reinforces the singer's confidence in their ability to overcome this negative influence.
