Blurry
Elli K Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You cover my mind as if it is all right
Seized by fear that you left behind
Dazed and hurt, but nobodyโฒs fault
Time (time) after time, I disappear
Saying softly, softly, softly aloud
Subtly, cunningly
I realize somehow, we own the truth
But nobody's here
I just leave out all the rest
We have to find the blurry and bright
No matter how they try to hide, to hide in the dark
Asking myself: "Do I cave in?"
All my hopes and fears were shattered
Feel the truth of thousand lies
Mazed and hurt but nobody wants
Time (time) after time, I disappear
Saying softly, softly, softly aloud
Subtly, cunningly
Please take me outta here
I realize somehow, we own the truth
But nobody's here
I just leave out all the rest
We have to find the blurry and bright
No matter how they try to hide, to hide in the dark
If youโฒre gonna lie, donโฒt tell me why
You covered my mind as if it is all right
The song Blurry by Elli K is a hauntingly beautiful take on the confusing and painful experiences that one may face when clinging onto a relationship that is slowly fading away. The lyrics are a plea to a lover who has lied and left the singer feeling confused and hurt. The singer is struggling with mixed emotions, of wanting to believe the lies but feeling hurt and betrayed, and is now grappling with the idea of leaving the relationship.
The opening lines of the song "If youโre gonna lie, donโt tell me why" set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is addressing their partner, pleading with them to not come up with excuses for their lies. They don't want to hear the reasons why the lies were told, but rather, they want to be acknowledged for the pain that has been caused. The line "Seized by fear that you left behind" suggests that the singer is struggling with their emotions while at the same time dealing with the consequences of their partner's lies.
The chorus of the song is repeated time and again, building a sense of urgency and desperation. The singer realizes that they need to find "the blurry and bright" - the truth that lies beyond the lies and confusion. They are aware that it won't be an easy path, as those who have lied will try their best to hide the truth. The overall message of the song is that even though a relationship may be blurry, it's important to seek out the truth and try to deal with the pain caused, rather than let it linger and fester.
