You’re lost in shadows, fading gray, The laughter’s gone, you slipped away. Chasing dreams in empty nights, Gripping ghosts you can’t make right. They say the devil’s in disguise, A poison wrapped in sweet goodbyes. I’d reach for you, but can’t get through— The person I loved isn’t you. Empty promises and hollow lies, Drowning truth as the bottle dries. I loved you once, but you let go— Now I’m losing you to what you chose. Your hands are cold, your eyes are dim, I watch you trade your soul for him. The life we had slips through your hands, Like sand that time won’t understand. They say “you can’t pour from a cup” That’s cracked, and breaking, giving up. I’d pull you back if I knew how, But you’re too far for saving now. Empty promises and hollow lies, Drowning truth as the bottle dries. I loved you once, but you let go— Now I’m losing you to what you chose. They say “once bitten, twice shy,” But I’m still here, just asking why. This is goodbye, though it tears in two— Loving you means leaving you. Empty promises and hollow lies, Drowning truth as the bottle dries. I loved you once, but you let go— Now I’m losing you to what you chose. Empty promises, I can’t stay, Walking out, I’ll be okay. I’m closing the door and letting go— It’s you and your shadows now, alone.
Female melancholic experimental pop ballad
English
The song evokes a profound sense of sadness and resignation, capturing feelings of loss, betrayal, and the helplessness that comes from watching someone you love fall into despair. There is an overarching theme of letting go coupled with deep longing.
This song is suitable for personal reflection, moments of heartbreak or loss, and as a cathartic experience during times of emotional turmoil. It may be particularly resonant during quiet evenings or when processing the end of a relationship.
The lyrics employ vivid imagery and metaphors to evoke emotional depth, using phrases such as 'you’re lost in shadows' and 'trading your soul for him.' The repetition of lines about 'empty promises and hollow lies' emphasizes the theme of disillusionment. The structure is reflective and poignant, enhancing the melancholy tone, likely accompanied by sparse instrumentation to underscore the emotional weight.
[intro] [solo] [verse] Uvek pazi, šta kažeš, U pameti jezik drži, Ako kažeš nešto loše, Može nekog da oprži. [verse] Nemoj da pustiš usta, Da rade sama za sebe, Ako se otrgnu kontroli, Koštaće samo tebe. [solo] [chorus] Kolika je snaga reči, To svi treba da znaju, Mogu i gvozdena vrata, Da nateraju da se otvaraju. Koliko su reči važne, Svako od nas znati mora, Nikada one neblede, Jačine dvanaest boforova. Reči pažljivo koristi, Neka ne upravljaju tobom, Neka ne budu brže od misli, Mogu te napraviti robom. [verse] Reči su kao pčele, U isto vreme i žaoka i med, Probodu kao šilo, Kad na njih dodje red. [verse] Tvoje ideje i reči, Lako mogu da promene svet, Drži ih pod kontrolom, Ne dozvoli preokret. [solo] [chorus] Kolika je snaga reči, To svi treba da znaju, Mogu i gvozdena vrata, Da nateraju se otvaraju. Koliko su reči važne, Svako od nas znati mora, Nikada one ne blede, Jačine dvanaest boforova. Reči pažljivo koristi, Neka ne upravljaju tobom, Neka ne budu brže od misli, Mogu te napraviti “robom”. [solo] Reči pažljivo koristi, Neka ne upravljaju tobom, Neka ne budu brže od misli, Mogu te napraviti “robom”. [outro]
I stand by the mirror, expecting my face Instead there’s a version of me I’ve erased The eyes looking back open wide and they gleam They show me the things I was meant to achieve Her steps never waver, she stays on her path (path) Confidence worn like a crown on her head I tell her I’m sorry, that I should have tried (tried) to drown out the voices that kept me down Mirror, mirror, what have I done? (What have I done?) I chose to lose (lose) when I could have won Now I see the dreams I left behind, (left behind) The girl in the mirror pays the price. And I see her dancing, free of regret (regret) A life still unfolding, no fear in her steps The choices I ran from, and all that I gave Up on, and into, so many mistakes I know I can't fix what's already been broken (broken) or go back in time, speak when I should have spoken I tell her I’m sorry, I should have been brave (brave) And not let the whispers control me that way Mirror, mirror, what have I done? (What have I done?) I chose to lose (lose) when I could have won (won) Now I see the dreams I left behind, (left behind) The girl in the mirror pays the price. I reach for the girl, try to step through the frame, To tell her to fight, not to fall for the same, The shards stay in place, the glass won’t bend, I’m stuck on this side, with no way to amend. Mirror, mirror, what have I done? (What have I done?) I chose to lose (lose) when I could have won Now I see the dreams I left behind, (left behind) The girl in the mirror pays the price. Mirror, mirror, what have I become? (What have I become?) I chose to lose (lose) when I could have won Now I see the dreams I let slip by, (slip by) The girl in the mirror pays the price.
[Vers] När snön faller mjukt över gamla hus I Umeås gator Där minnen är ljus Ljusen de glimmar Som stjärnor på rad I denna stad Där julens stämning är glad [Vers 2] Norrsken i natten Ett färgsprakande spel Hjärtat är varmt i en vinter som är hel Glada barn som fångar snöflingor i hand Umeå Min hemstad I vinterland [Refräng] Jul i gamla staden Umeå Där fönstren tindrar i natten som ett ljus Jul i gamla staden Umeå Här är varje dag en magisk historia [Vers 3] Granarna kläs med glitter och krans Gatorna fyllda av julens sortimens Kom Låt oss vandra hand i hand Under stjärnorna i detta vinterland [Refräng] Jul i gamla staden Umeå Där fönstren tindrar i natten som ett ljus Jul i gamla staden Umeå Här är varje dag en magisk historia [Bridge] Klockor klingar Tiden står still Världen känns stor men hjärtat vill Hör du sången En melodi Umeå Mitt hem I julens symfoni
[Verse] She gave me wings to fly away Through storms and skies I found my way Her voice a guide both night and day Her love the light that keeps the gray [Verse 2] In every laugh and every tear Her strength was there to quell the fear She built a world where hearts could cheer A sanctuary quiet clear [Chorus] Oh mother you’re my home my heart From the very start You held my dreams and played your part We’ll never be apart [Verse 3] Through every fall she held me tight Her hands a cradle in the night She taught me wrong and taught me right Now in her glow my soul takes flight [Bridge] When shadows loom and doubts are loud Her wisdom cuts through every cloud A beacon strong and ever proud She lifts me when I’m feeling bowed [Chorus] Oh mother you’re my home my heart From the very start You held my dreams and played your part We’ll never be apart
