Mirror
Little Dragon / OGRonC & DJ Candlestick of The Chopstars Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The way you look at me so
Kinda making me scared
Throwin’ me those eyes of scarlet
Though when I pass by
You got nothin’ to say
Not even a-
Oh, and it breaks my heart
We capture some moments
Now I don’t recognise you
Did you lose your playful mood?
This bad attitude
Too bad
It’s too bad
It’s too bad
See how you’re makin’ me blue?
You know you’re better than that
Staring at me
Playing the fool
You must have lost your mind!
See when you pass me by
You ain’t got nothin’ to say
How can you forget to smile
It breaks my heart
I’mma climb up these clouds
And see things clear
You’re gonna make me put my fist through this mirror
I’m so sick and tired of lookin’ in this mirror
See how you’re makin’ me blue?
The lyrics of "Mirror" by Little Dragon / OGRonC & DJ Candlestick of The Chopstars convey a message of sadness and frustration towards someone who has changed for the worst. The singer is clearly upset with the person they are addressing and is struggling to understand why they have become so distant and cold. The use of the word "mad" implies that the singer is angry and perhaps even hurt by the way they are being treated. Additionally, the repeated phrases "it breaks my heart" and "see how you're making me blue" suggest a deep emotional pain resulting from the situation.
The lyrics also contain a metaphor of a broken friendship, comparing it to a shattered glass picture frame. The singer seems to be reflecting on memories of the past and reminiscing on the good times shared with the person they are addressing. They wonder if this person has "lost their playful mood" and why they have such a "bad attitude". The repeated phrase "it's too bad" suggests a sense of resignation and disappointment towards the situation.
Towards the end of the lyrics, the singer expresses a desire to escape from the toxic relationship and the feelings of sadness it brings. They mention climbing up to the clouds to “see things clear” and are even tempted to break a mirror in frustration. It is clear that the singer is at a loss as to how to fix the relationship and is struggling with the pain that the other person's actions have caused them.

@Brian Young I actually just uploaded the full album. It's very rare where I can find an album and like every single track. The original is worth a listen too.
