Liar
Slowlife Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Until death do us part.
Those rules don't apply to you.
Something is pushing me further and further away from myself.
From reason and hope.
I feel confused.
I feel abandoned.
And if I'm not mistaken you promised to change my world.
And that makes you a liar. (Liar)
I know that hope can never emerge or arise from the ashes of the dead.
My white wings of peace are soiled.
Soiled and raped.
Carry me home.
I feel confused.
I feel abandoned.
I feel betrayed.
And if I'm not mistaken you promised to change my world.
And that makes you a liar. (Liar)
The lyrics to "Liar" by Slowlife convey a sense of betrayal and disillusionment. The singer references their "white wings of peace" that have become "discoloured by blood" and "soiled and raped." These once pure symbols of hope have been tainted by a broken promise - the singer was once promised that their world would change, but now they realize that their hopes were misplaced and that they have been lied to.
The singer describes feeling pushed away from themselves - perhaps this means that they have lost their sense of identity or direction. They also feel confused, abandoned, and betrayed. The repetition of these phrases drives home the emotions that the singer is feeling, emphasizing the intensity of their disillusionment.
The overall message of the song seems to be that trust and hope can be easily shattered, and that the consequences can be severe. The singer's disappointment is palpable, and the listener is left with a sense of sadness and loss.
