Nicotine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is this my destiny, is this my destiny
I didn't want to accept this as my lot
Maybe I must face this truth in the end
Lookin' in the mirror
After a while I closed my eyes
And remembered the time when I was a kid
I cry on the pillow
Can I have a happy future in my life
Will I see another better day
Can I have a happy future in my life
Will I see another better day
Remember me you've never called my name
Is this your tenderness
Is this your tenderness
I have followed your goddamn shitty way
Maybe I lost my whole life time
Lookin' in the mirror
After a while I closed my eyes
And remembered the time I spent with you
I lost my fantasy no place to go
Where is my hero
Have you ever faced this truth
As I saw it yesterday
Have you ever found your way
When you lost your mind
Can you show me now
The lyrics to "Flash Back" by Nicotine seem to explore feelings of despair, loss, and uncertainty about one's future. The first verse describes the singer's experience of seeing sadness on their TV screen and wondering if this is their destiny. The following lines suggest a hesitation to accept this as their fate, and a possibility that they may need to face the truth eventually. The second verse describes the singer looking in the mirror and remembering their past, specifically the loss of their family and home. The line "I cry on the pillow" is particularly poignant in this context, highlighting the overwhelming emotions that the singer is grappling with. The chorus repeats the question "Can I have a happy future in my life?" and expresses the desire to see another better day.
The third verse seems to shift focus to a specific person, someone who has never called the singer by name. The line "Is this your tenderness" suggests that this person may have been a source of comfort or support in the past, but there is now a distance between them. The lyrics suggest that the singer has followed a path that they now view as "goddamn shitty" and may have lost their entire lifetime as a result. The final lines of the song ask the listener directly if they have ever faced a similar truth or lost their mind, perhaps suggesting a sense of connection or shared experiences.
Overall, the lyrics to "Flash Back" paint a vivid picture of someone struggling with their past, present, and future. The use of the mirror as a metaphorical device is particularly effective, emphasizing the theme of self-reflection and introspection. The repeated questions in the chorus add a sense of urgency to the song, as if the singer is desperately seeking answers to these fundamental questions about their life. The specific details about loss and longing add an emotional weight to the lyrics, making them feel raw and relatable.

On my TV screen I found a little sorrow
I was watching TV and saw something sad that made me feel a little down
Is this my destiny, is this my destiny
I'm wondering if this is what my life is meant to be like forever
I didn't want to accept this as my lot
I didn't want to believe that this was all I could expect in life
Maybe I must face this truth in the end
Perhaps I need to accept that this is the reality and deal with it eventually
Lookin' in the mirror
I started checking my reflection
After a while I closed my eyes
After a bit, I shut my eyes for a moment
And remembered the time when I was a kid
I recalled the moments from when I was young
I lost my family and my place to live
I had to part ways with my family and the place where I once lived
I cry on the pillow
I cried alone on my pillow
Can I have a happy future in my life
I wonder if it's possible for me to have a happy future
Will I see another better day
I hope that things will improve and that I'll experience a brighter day
Remember me you've never called my name
You have never addressed me by my name
Is this your tenderness
Are you being gentle or caring towards me at all
I have followed your goddamn shitty way
I have gone along with your terrible decisions
Maybe I lost my whole life time
Perhaps I've wasted my entire life
And remembered the time I spent with you
I recollected the moments I had spent with you
I lost my fantasy no place to go
I've lost my imaginative spirit and have no direction or destination
Where is my hero
I wonder where my hero - someone who can save me - is
Have you ever faced this truth
Have you ever encountered a similar reality to this
As I saw it yesterday
Just like I did yesterday
Have you ever found your way
Have you ever discovered a path forward
When you lost your mind
When you were feeling lost or confused
Can you show me now
Can you display to me how to get past this
