Trophy Eyes delves into themes of existential dread and societal disillusionment. The lyrics unveil the internal conflict of resisting and fearing change despite recognizing its necessity. The protagonist grapples with their self-destructive tendencies, acknowledging the damage they've caused, yet remains hesitant to alter their behavior. This resignation to suffering is reflected in the metaphorical "miming in the choir," signifying a life of passive existence without genuine participation or fulfillment. The pursuit of significance and fear of being forgotten are evident, culminating in the desire for recognition even in death. Trophy Eyes captures the despair of invisibility and the craving for legacy. #ExistentialCrisis #FearOfChange
Miming In The Choir
Lyrics
I have something I'm afraid of
The answer to my problems
The reason to not be fucked up anymore
The truth is I don't want to change
I guess I'm happy with my damaged ways
I hate the water but I like the sound when the ice breaks
We are the common folk
We live our lives to die alone
Share our beds when the nights get cold
All I want is to be someone
I don't want no empty seats
When they lower me down
I want the camera lights go out
Nicotine sweats and coffee breath
I thought I was so much more than this
When I look back at everything I've touched
I see the lives I've ruined, dirty fingerprints
We are the common folk
We live our lives to die alone
Share our beds when the nighs get cold
All I want is to be someone
I don't want no empty seats
When they lower me down
When the camera lights go out
We can't sleep, we can't dream
We are miming in the choir
We can't sleep, we can't dream
We are miming in the choir
We can't sleep, we can't dream
We are miming in the choir
We can't sleep, we can't dream
We are miming in the choir
All I want is to be someone
I don't want no empty seats
When they lower me down
(We can't sleep, we can't dream
We are miming in the choir)
When the camera lights go out
All I want is to be someone
I don't want no empty seats
When they lower me down
(We can't sleep, we can't dream
We are miming in the choir)
I have something I'm afraid of
