Sebalter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
of a past which is just
a blury shape in my mind
a blury shape in my nights
It's too late, really late
when we grow we get lost
in the mirrow
You can make some more love
you can make some more lies
it's been walking in all the street
gets some adorn your skin
I prefer to walk along
don't you see the gettin on
Have you ever fall only heart? Have you aver fall only heart?

The singer states that as they grew up, they became lost in the "mirror of a perfect life," indicating a disillusionment with societal expectations and pressures to conform to certain standards.
The lyrics also touch upon themes of love and deception. The singer acknowledges that one can choose to make more love or more lies, but ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide where they want to go.

Line by Line Meaning
Small last days
The final days of a certain period in time
of a past which is just
A previous time that has become unclear in memory
a blury shape in my mind
Vague and uncertain pictures in my thoughts
a blury shape in my nights
Faint images that come to me during the night
It's too late, really late
Time has already elapsed, there's no going back
when we grow we get lost
As we get older we lose direction
in the mirrow
In a reflection of ourselves
of a perfect life, perfect life.
The idea of an ideal life
You can make some more love
More love can be created
you can make some more lies
More falsehoods can be conjured
it's been walking in all the street
It has been walked on every street
gets some adorn your skin
Decorating your skin with embellishments
I prefer to walk along
I'd rather stroll on my own
don't you see the gettin on
Can't you see what's happening?
Have you ever fall only heart? Have you aver fall only heart?
Have you ever experienced only falling in love with someone? Have you ever experienced only falling in love with someone?
