Disappear
Miss Fortune Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They would find a place to eat.
She said she hands out fliers in pride of her sexuality.
I could do without her reservations for me.
But I'm okay right now.
I'll be okay for now.
She said, "I once said no, but now I think I might."
She just pressed her hand against her television screen.
"Can't you, just for a moment, pretend you know what I mean?"
But I'm okay right now.
I'll be okay for now.
Lost faith, lost hope,
So many times I've lost faith.
Lost time, you're right,
I'm sorry, I changed my mind.
This is not the way I meant it to appear.
You're still thinking that there just might be something more out there.
I could be aware.
I could disappear.
But I'm okay right now.
I'll be okay for now.
The lyrics in Miss Fortune's song "Disappear" seem to be about a woman who is struggling with her identity and sexual orientation, as well as her loneliness and desire for validation. The singer observes this woman and her behavior, but seems somewhat indifferent to it, saying that he could do without her "reservations" for him. However, he still recognizes her pain and loneliness, as she sits alone at night and longs for someone to understand her.
The chorus, "But I'm okay right now. I'll be okay for now," seems to serve as a reminder to himself that he is not responsible for this woman's happiness or well-being, and that he needs to focus on his own life and needs. The final lines of the song, "I could be aware. I could disappear," suggest that the singer is still unsure of what he wants and where he stands, and is considering the possibility of leaving this woman and her problems behind.
Through its lyrics, Disappear explores themes of identity, loneliness, and individuality. The song serves as a reminder that everyone has their own struggles and battles to fight, and that it's important to focus on taking care of yourself first and foremost.
