Highline Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And that you placed all the blame on me
And I know you have every right to say how you feel
But don't you dare put the blame on me
And I haven't seen you in months
I asked all your friends how you were
They said you threw away all of my old t shirts
And I need you to know darling
That honey I, I'm sorry I made you
Hate what you saw in the mirror but know
I never meant to cause you pain
And I hate that lately you
Think of hurting when you think of my name
But know I never meant to hurt you,
I didn't think I could hurt you darling I swear
Well, It took some time but I'm nearly there
Fixed myself up painted my place again
Oo I'm not the same person you knew when we both left
And I'm sure you're not too far behind
I'm sure we'll both end up alright
But honey just know I'm sorry I made you
Hate what you saw in the mirror but know
I never meant to cause you pain
And I hate that lately you
Think of hurting when you think of my name but know
I never meant to hurt you
Didn't think I could hurt you darling I swear
Darling I swear...
The lyrics to Highline's song "Mirror" tell the story of two people who were once in a relationship but are now estranged. The singer hears that their former partner has been blaming them for losing their way, but the singer doesn't believe that they are responsible for their ex's troubles. Despite the distance between them, the singer is still impacted by their former partner's pain and regrets any role they may have played in contributing to it. The singer also acknowledges the changes they have made since the breakup and wishes the best for both of them as they move forward separately.
The line "So I heard you lost your way/And that you placed all the blame on me" implies that the person blaming the singer may be struggling with some personal issues, and rather than dealing with them, they are projecting the blame onto the singer. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer is sorry for any pain they may have caused and did not intend to hurt their former partner. They also express their desire for their ex to move forward and heal from any hurt that was caused. The final line "But know I never meant to hurt you, didn't think I could hurt you darling I swear" reinforces the singer's sincerity and desire for their former partner to believe them.
Overall, the lyrics of "Mirror" speak to the universal experience of relationship endings and the complexities that come along with them. The song portrays a level of maturity and self-awareness on the part of the singer, as they reflect on their role in the broken relationship and take responsibility for any pain they caused. The chorus also emphasizes the importance of recognizing the impact our actions can have on others and the need for compassion and understanding in the process of healing.
