Mirrors
Purity Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Would you jump a cliff if someone asked you to do it
For the sake of empathy, I'd put myself through it
Mirrors are our eyes, and it's hard to look sometimes
Finding your own pain in those mirrors is not a crime

Don't be afraid to tell yourself what you're doing
Admitting it's the hardest part, but you'll get through it
Look into the mirror, it may hurt sometimes
But that pain you feel can be gone from you mind

Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody dies
Everybody dies
Everybody dies
You and I
Everybody dies
Hold me tight

The DVD was skipping, and the volume was too loud
I screamed
Turn the volume off and get out of my house
Naked, I ask
Did I do something wrong
The three of you laugh, and I finally belong

You were calm, though inside I'm sure you were screaming
You took me into your arms, and I felt our hearts beating
Life's a deafening place when you do it alone
Finding happiness is my only home

Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody dies
Everybody ​dies
You and I
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody

You've filled yourself with lies
It's alright
The only time is now
To make it right




So make it right
Make it right

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Purity's song "Mirrors" is about self-reflection and self-growth. The artist is asking the listener if they would be willing to do something dangerous or challenging if someone asked them to do it for the sake of empathy. The chorus emphasizes that we will all die at some point and that it's okay to admit our faults and look at our inner pain. The artist encourages the listeners to be honest with themselves and to use self-reflection as a tool to help them grow.


The second verse is a personal story that the artist shares, where they were in a loud and overwhelming environment, and they were seeking comfort from someone they trusted. The person they turned to was calm and provided them with comfort in their time of need. The artist notes that life can be lonely, and it's essential to find happiness and comfort within oneself.


Overall, the song is a reminder to look inward and confront our inner demons to move forward positively. It's also about how crucial finding connection and comfort with others can be in navigating life's struggles.
