Twin Method Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm falling into grey, into nothing
(become who i despise)
No one came to my side,
Shallow, dirty, and grey
Shadow of a new time,
Become who i despise
I'm alive
Break me down, wash away
I'm alive
Don't need to say, i know
I don't understand it, I'm fighting me
I step into the void, now its flawless
(because i live, i lie)
Holding onto this life, give me reason to try
I cannot change my own mind
Because i live, i lie
I'm alive
Break me down, wash away
I'm alive
Don't need to say, don't leave me this way
I'm alive
What do you want from me? you'll never get
I'm alive
Breath it, live it, don't push it on me!
And i won't bother, i don't want to be here
The same as each other
You can say nothing to me!
I was, i know, I'm left here wanting more
To be no more is flawless
I was, i know, I'm left here wanting more
To be no more is flawless
I'm alive
Break me down, wash away
I'm alive
Breath it, live it, don't push it on me!
You can say nothing to me
The lyrics of Twin Method's song Flawless speak to a sense of emptiness and detachment from oneself. The verses describe a feeling of falling into nothingness and becoming who one despises. This could be interpreted as a sense of losing oneself or one's values, and becoming something that goes against what one once believed in. The chorus, "I'm alive, break me down, wash away" could suggest a desire to be cleansed or purified, perhaps from the negative emotions or experiences that have led to this detachment.
The bridge of the song, "I don't understand it, I'm fighting me, I step into the void, now it's flawless" speaks to a struggle with identity and a willingness to take risks, even if they lead to a sense of emptiness or detachment. The repeated phrase "because I live, I lie" could suggest a feeling of being inauthentic or untrue to oneself.
In the final verse, the singer expresses a desire to not be bothered and states that they don't want to be like everyone else. The repeated line "you can say nothing to me" suggests a refusal to be influenced or swayed by external opinions. The final lines of the song, "I was, I know, I'm left here wanting more / To be no more is flawless" could suggest a desire for change or growth, even if it means letting go of one's previous identity or way of being.

Never came to my mind, and nothings new
I never thought of it, and nothing has changed
I'm falling into grey, into nothing
I'm sinking into a state of emptiness and numbness
(become who i despise)
I'm becoming the person I hate
No one came to my side,
I was alone
Shallow, dirty, and grey
Everything felt superficial, unclean, and bleak
Shadow of a new time
A hint of change and progress in the midst of darkness
I'm alive
I am existing
Break me down, wash away
Destroy me and cleanse me
Don't need to say, i know
No need for words, I understand
I don't understand it, I'm fighting me
I'm struggling with myself because I can't comprehend it
I step into the void, now its flawless
I embrace the unknown and it becomes perfect
(because i live, i lie)
Even though I'm alive, I'm still not being honest with myself
Holding onto this life, give me reason to try
I hold onto life because I need a reason to keep going
I cannot change my own mind
I am unable to change my own thoughts and feelings
What do you want from me? you'll never get
What do you expect from me? You will never understand me
Breath it, live it, don't push it on me!
Experience life as it is, but don't force your beliefs onto me
And i won't bother, i don't want to be here
I won't care, I don't want to exist in this place
The same as each other
We are all alike
You can say nothing to me!
I don't want to hear anything from you
I was, i know, I'm left here wanting more
I was alive, and now that I know what life is, I desire more
To be no more is flawless
Death is perfect because it is an end to the struggles of life
