Inside
Sander Van Doorn & Mayaeni Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just a cold blank stare
And no one's asking why
Why you don`t seem to care
We`ve lost our way, lost our way
Maybe we`ve run out of time
driving ourselves out of our minds
All of our dreams making us blind
Baby we're leaving behind
Nothing to see, nothing inside
We're out of our minds with nothing inside
You`re falling out of touch
and you're barely there
keeping up with the rush
just to go nowhere
we've lost our way, lost our way
Maybe we`ve run out of time
driving ourselves out of our minds
Maybe we`re missing the signs
All of our dreams making us blind
Baby we're leaving behind
Nothing to see, nothing inside
We're out of our minds with nothing inside
The lyrics of "Nothing Inside" by Sander Van Doorn & Mayaeni is about the feeling of losing oneself and feeling empty inside. The song starts with the singer not noticing any emotion in the person they are speaking to as they stare into their eyes. There is a lack of concern from the singer and it seems like they have lost their way. The second verse talks about the person the singer is speaking to, how they are falling out of touch with reality, barely present and only seems to keep up with the rush of life. They are also lost, and the overall emotion of the song seems to be a feeling of emptiness, hopelessness, and a sense of losing oneself both in terms of individuality and as a society. The lyrics are intense and speak about how we seem to be driving ourselves out of our own minds, by ignoring the signs around us, all the while being blinded by our dreams.
Overall, the song is a powerful reflection of the times we live in, where people seem to be chasing their dreams blindly, ignoring the things happening around them, and feeling empty and lost.

Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional,it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it...
@prizra4eto
