Mirrors
Suspyria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've got me in your sights
I'm shaking and breaking
From the things inside
This creature this beast it's
Pulling me apart and i'm
Losing control
I've never felt
There's the horizon
I thought i'd come so far (So far)
But without you here
Each day it feels like
Kill or be killed
Every time I tried to
Put it past me
I thought you'd understand
But these walls surround
And take a part of me
I lost myself
We've been here, and you know
How long this chapter goes
Our story I thought was set
Before my mind unfolds
It wasn't carved in stone
It wasn't carved in stone
There's the horizon
I thought i'd come so far
(So far)
But without you here
Each day it feels like
Kill or be killed
Every time I tried to
Put it past me
I thought you'd understand
But these walls surround
And take a part of me
I lost myself
I have fallen so far
Down this hole and I can
Barely see the sun
Will the light ever reach me
And show me how to breathe again
I have fallen so far
Down this hole and I can
Barely see the sun
And we've been here before
I promised myself that this
Would be the last time
The last time
Feed me, To the dogs, Like i'm just a fool
Feed me, To the dogs, Like i'm just a fool
Feed me, To the dogs
Suspyria's song "Mirrors" is a poignant and emotionally charged piece about the difficulty of dealing with internal demons and facing the challenges of life without the support of someone you love. The song starts with the singer acknowledging that someone is watching him closely, and he feels small and vulnerable in front of them. He is struggling with something inside of him that feels like a beast, tearing him apart. The singer mentions that he thought he had come a long way, but without the support of the person he loves, he is forced to face each day like it's a battle for survival. The walls that surround him feel suffocating, and he has lost himself in the struggle.
The chorus of the song repeats the idea that the singer thought he had come a long way, but without the person he loves, each day feels like a battle of life or death. The bridge talks about falling down a hole, and the fear that the light and hope may never reach him again. The song concludes with the repeated phrase "feed me to the dogs, like I'm just a fool," a desperate plea to end this battle and the pain that the singer is enduring.
