Mirror
Serhat Durmus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Living in a crazy world
Followin the path that always twists and turns
Gave up on your sanity to hide behind the devil
'Cause you think you'll live forever

Say you're never getting old
Out there thinking that you're in the world alone
No one ever told you that you have to live for something
Or in the end you will be nothing

It's too cold, standing in the middle of the downpour
Looking in the mirror 'cause it's only you
That you have to lose

Headed backward on a one way
Tryin' to stop from running but you can't wait
Buried all the evidence you'll only learn
When you crash and burn

It's too cold, standing in the middle of the downpour
Looking in the mirror 'cause it's only you
That you have to lose

Headed backward on a one way
Tryin' to stop from running but you can't wait




Buried all the evidence you'll only learn
When you're in the end, you will be nothing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Serhat Durmus's song Mirror speak about the desperate need to find oneself in a world that's becoming increasingly unstable. It speaks of a person who's lost their sense of direction - they've given up on their sanity and are living life at the mercy of the devil because they believe that they'll live forever. The lyrics imply that the person is afraid of aging and isn't aware of the fact that they have to live their life for something meaningful; otherwise, they risk becoming nothing in the end.


The chorus speaks to the theme of the song - the person is standing in the middle of a downpour, cold and alone, and has no other option but to look at themselves in the mirror. It's a metaphor for the person's reflection, which represents their inner selves. They're searching for answers, trying to make sense of their life and the decisions they've made. The lyrics suggest that the person is stuck in a one-way street, trying to change course yet unable to do so. They've buried all the evidence of their past, although they'll learn from the mistakes they've made when they eventually crash and burn.


Overall, the lyrics of the song convey a sense of desperation and loss, a feeling that's deep-seated and universal. It's about finding the truth and the strength to confront one's deepest fears, no matter how uncomfortable it may be.


Line by Line Meaning

Living in a crazy world
Existing within a tumultuous and difficult world


Followin the path that always twists and turns
Traversing a direction that is constantly changing and uncertain


Gave up on your sanity to hide behind the devil
Abandoned one's mental well-being in exchange for a negative influence


'Cause you think you'll live forever
Believing that one will never die


Say you're never getting old
Expressing a desire to remain eternally youthful


Out there thinking that you're in the world alone
Believing that no one else exists in the universe


No one ever told you that you have to live for something
Never receiving guidance that life requires a purpose


Or in the end you will be nothing
Without a life goal, one's existence is empty


It's too cold, standing in the middle of the downpour
Feeling isolated and uncomfortable


Looking in the mirror 'cause it's only you
The only person to confront is oneself


That you have to lose
The only thing that can be lost is oneself


Headed backward on a one way
Moving in the opposite direction of progress


Tryin' to stop from running but you can't wait
Attempting to halt movement but not wanting to delay


Buried all the evidence you'll only learn
Hiding all proof of past mistakes which will become apparent later


When you crash and burn
After experiencing a great failure


When you're in the end, you will be nothing
Without a driving force behind one's life, there is no meaning
