Nimeni on Feeniks
Synestesia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Anteeksiantamaton
kylmä ja häikäilemätön
epäinhimillinen
julma ja harkitsevainen
kasvoiltaan tuntematon
harva kahdesti katsoo
mielestään kuolematon
Valehtelija, näyttelijä
sosiaalinen kameleontti
valehtelija, näyttelijä
parantumaton misantrooppi
Kenenkään en anna kasvoiltani naamiota poistaa
Ulospäin olen kuitenkin tasapainoinen
elämässään menestynyt ihminen
uskollinen, rakastettava
ja ennen kaikkea rakastava
Aviomies ja perheen isä
rikas, menestynyt
ja hyvän suvun vesa
Aviomies ja perheen isä
rikas, menestynyt
ja hyvän suvun vesa
Aviomies ja perheen isä
rikas, menestynyt
ja hyvän suvun vesa
Aviomies ja perheen isä
rikas, menestynyt
ja hyvän suvun vesa
The lyrics of Synestesia's song "Nimeni on Feeniks" explore the concept of duality in human nature. The first stanza describes a character who is unapologetic, cold, and inhumane, with the face of an unknown person that people rarely look at twice. This character considers themselves a perfect killer and believes they are immortal. The second stanza describes the character as a liar, a social chameleon, and a misanthrope who doesn't trust anyone. They refuse to let anyone remove the mask that they wear, and yet they appear balanced and successful to the outside world.
However, the last stanza reveals that this character is actually an affluent family man - a loving husband and father who comes from a good lineage. The contrast between this seemingly normal family man and the violent and emotionless character described earlier demonstrates the complexity of human nature and the masks that people wear to hide their true selves.
Overall, "Nimeni on Feeniks" is a thought-provoking commentary on society's tendency to judge people by their external appearances rather than their inner selves. The lyrics remind us that there is often more to a person than what meets the eye, and that we should strive to understand and empathize with others, even those who may seem cold or distant.
