Fantasy
Picasso Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And though you're never the same
You're never far from the mark
Now and then you close your eyes
To see the heartbreak in disguise
Kiss them off with lipstick lies
Lipstick lies won't hide the truth
They won't keep you waterproof
The victim of your vanity
You see just what you want to see
Who's to blame?
Love is love by any name
Who's to blame?
Lipstick lies won't hide the truth
They won't keep you waterproof
The victim of your vanity
You see just what you want to see
Who's to blame?
Love is love by any name
Who's to blame?
Love is love by any name
Who's to blame?




Love is love by any name
Who's to blame?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Fantasy" by Picasso delve into the idea of perception and how it shapes the way we view relationships. The opening lines "And though you're never the same, You're never far from the mark" suggest that the subject of the song is constantly changing, evolving, and growing, but always within a certain boundary. The next line, "Now and then you close your eyes, To see the heartbreak in disguise" indicates that despite their evolution, the subject is still haunted by their past experiences of heartbreak and struggles to move past it.


The chorus repeats the line "Lipstick lies won't hide the truth, They won't keep you waterproof, The victim of your vanity, You see just what you want to see" several times which emphasizes the idea that the subject is still holding onto false truths and beliefs about love and relationships. The lyrics "Kiss them off with lipstick lies" suggest that the subject is not being honest with themselves or with those they are in relationships with, which contributes to a cycle of heartbreak and disappointment.


Ultimately, the lyrics of "Fantasy" suggest that love is a complex and multifaceted emotion that is often clouded by our own expectations and biases. The song reminds us that we must be honest and vulnerable in our relationships if we are to truly find happiness and fulfillment.
