Shadows
Massface Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All that you saw
On your way
All that you'd feel in real life
Looks like a veil
That falling down
On a Blade of a knife

Watch your steps
Do not fall in shadows
Cuz they're hollow and follow your fear
So just keep it clear
They can hide
Things you can't imagine
Secrets in the air around you
So breathe

Watch your steps
Take a look inside your shadow
That you've never noticed
Could your dreams be a map?
But before you decide to start to go
There is no way to go
(It's a trap)

Looks like a veil
Keeps falling down
On a blade of a knife

Watch your steps
Do not fall in shadows
Cuz they're hollow and follow your fear
So just keep it clear
They can hide
Things you can't imagine
Secrets in the air around you
So breathe

Just breathe!

Watch them
They're born with the light
And they die with the light
While they live - they will fight

Look at them
Shadows
They born with the light




And they die with the light
As long as they live - they will fight

Overall Meaning

The song "Shadows" by Massface is a commentary on the nature of fear and the danger of hiding from one's innermost thoughts and feelings. The lyrics describe how the illusions we create for ourselves through fear appear like a veil that falls over our eyes, causing us to see reality through a distorted lens. This veil can be especially dangerous when we allow it to lead us into shadows, places where we cannot see or understand what is happening around us. The chorus urges listeners to watch their steps and not fall into these hollow shadows, reminding them that they can hide secrets and things that are unimaginable.


The second verse encourages introspection, suggesting that we examine our shadows - the parts of ourselves we may not be aware of - in order to confront our fears and attempt to understand them. The lyrics suggest that our dreams may be a map to overcoming our fears - but the final line of the verse warns that this may be a trap, cautioning against the dangers of being too consumed by our own fears and desires. The song ends with a final warning to watch the shadows around us, to recognize that they are born from the light and that they will fight as long as they exist.

They struggle with existence


Look at them
Ponder on them


Shadows
Darkness


They born with the light
They come from light


And they die with the light
They expire when light goes away


As long as they live - they will fight
They contend with survival

Ну тут сказать нечего. Настолько красочная палитра гармонии. Всё живенько , брейкдаун мощь , припев 🔥 И переходы меж куплетами и припевами не ощущаются вообще , настолько всё гармонийно. Это прям мощное течение.
