Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
An informer quick run away hide before they see you, you know it is all, all a glow
Walking on water seems parlays now you got my trust and it feels, and it feels like sabotage when I'm pulling triggers back on myself you know it is all I know, is all I know
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the out
Tyrant tyrant
Feel capable of most anything this crippled bears gonna sing gonna bring you all the years is
Quick turn around look your shadows could could not beautiful lies for you is what they do ..
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the out
From the out tyrant
Tyrant tyrant
I'll stay with apathy I'm blind but I can see the tyrant to the bone
I'll stay with apathy I'm blind but I can see
Don't justify me
Don't justify me
Don't justify me
No no no no no no
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the out
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the out
Tyrant tyrant tyrant oh oh oh
The opening lines of the song "Watching myself when I'm taking strides but here comes the moon and it feels...like an informer quick run away hide before they see you" suggest the theme of self-awareness, but also hint at the fear of being exposed, of having one's secrets revealed. The idea of running away, of hiding and not being seen further reinforces the idea of fear and the vulnerability that comes with being exposed. The singer acknowledges that this fear is all-consuming, that "it is all, all a glow". This could be interpreted as a reference to anxiety, where everything appears to be magnified and overwhelming.
The second verse "Walking on water seems parlays now you got my trust and it feels...like sabotage when I'm pulling triggers back on myself, you know it is all I know, is all I know" builds on the idea of trust, but also highlights the tendency to self-destruct. The singer acknowledges that with trust comes the potential for destruction, such as pulling the trigger on oneself. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the fear of failure or the inability to trust oneself.
Overall, the song seems to explore the themes of fear, vulnerability, and self-destruction, with a hint of self-awareness and the need for trust. The repetition of "tyrant" at the end of the song could be seen as a reference to the inner tyrant or critic that holds us back and causes these fears.
