My Shadows
Deine Lakaien Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I sing a song
For the sad ones like you
But you don't hear
What is wrong what is true
My shadows
I can't hear your heartbeat
Your narrow mind
Takes the air that I need
I have to fight
For air
But I breathe no longer
Life is what you want it

No no no you cannot close the door
Yes yes yes I fly away for sure
My my my answer is my faithful pride
And you and you should vanish
You should go

You better listen
The words that you read
Your eyes should close
And pray for the key
It's out of reach
And I give gold give everything
Your looks ignite
Your voice is a mess
Your smile of perfume
Should make you regret
You are a loser
And you are made for failing

No no no you cannot close the door
Yes yes yes I fly away for sure
My my my answer is my faithful pride
And you and you should vanisch
You should go

The face I see
In the mirror is yours
But I am also
A part of it all
You cannot hide me
Because I am the best you've got
I start to feel
Ashamed when you walk
You talk about
The rules of our life
But I'm no loser
And I am made to save you

No no no you cannot close the door
Yes yes yes I fly away for sure
My my my answer is my faithful pride




And you and you should vanish
You should go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Deine Lakaien's "My Shadows" explore a sense of frustration and isolation that the singer experiences. The song is directed towards someone who the singer deems to be a "loser" and "made for failing." These lines suggest that the singer is trying to reach out to someone who they perceive as being in a dark place, but their efforts are not being heard. The mention of "shadows" throughout the song is perhaps a metaphor for this sense of darkness that the person is trapped in.


The lyrics also touch on themes of individuality and self-empowerment. The singer seems to be urging the person to stand up for themselves, to have faith in their own abilities, and to not let others control their lives. The line "Life is what you want it" underscores this idea, suggesting that the person has agency over their own life and that they should strive to make the most of it.


Overall, "My Shadows" is a poignant song that shines a light on feelings of alienation and the desire to connect with others. It also highlights the importance of self-belief and taking control of one's own destiny.

You speak of


The rules of our life
The regulations that govern our lives

But I am not a failure


And I am made to save you
I am sent to rescue you
