Mirrors
Luxley Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You pull me back in
To the blue smoke,
I thought my life would change.

I cross my footsteps,
No matter what I do
I can’t find your face.

Calling,
This ocean speaks a view.
Searching,
Waves pull me from you.

Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Where are you?

Lost in the sunset,
On top of white sand,
I’m tangled up with you.

Caught in the current
My fingers comb the glass,
Driftin’ the plains for you.

Mistakes
Blinded me from you.
Shining,
We leave our bodies
Bruised.

Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Where are you?

You...

Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Where are you?

Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...

Chasing the one mirror, she’s got...
Where are you?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Luxley's song "Mirrors" seem to explore themes of longing, loss, and the search for connection. The singer is pulled back into a hazy and uncertain world ("blue smoke") where they hoped their life would change. However, they find themselves searching for a face that they can no longer find, feeling lost and disconnected. The ocean, metaphorically representing the vastness of their emotions, speaks to them, but the waves pull them further away from the person they desire to be with.

They continue to chase after this elusive connection, represented by the "one mirror" that someone else possesses. They are caught in a current, tangled up with memories and emotions, as they roam the vast and empty plains in search of this missing presence. The singer realizes that mistakes and blind spots have obscured their vision, preventing them from seeing and reaching out to the person they long for. In the end, they are left feeling bruised and disoriented, desperately questioning the whereabouts of the one they seek.

Overall, "Mirrors" paints a picture of someone yearning for a lost connection, feeling adrift and disconnected in the process. It evokes a sense of longing, longing for transformation, and the search for something or someone to hold onto in a world that seems vast and unforgiving.
