Mirage Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
It’s midnight, and everything feels alive yet messy. The night is filled with selfish wants, old regrets, and blurred emotions. Rain makes things hard to see clearly, and neon lights reflect off wet surfaces like they’re outlining something lost. He doesn’t want the night to end just yet, even though time is pulling everything apart.

[Chorus]
He says goodnight with a tired, disappointed face. Just when he thinks he’s finally caught up to something meaningful, it vanishes like a mirage. He wishes he could touch the past like it used to be, before he gave up his pride or values. But mistakes happen so fast, and nights go by even faster. All that’s left is a faint story, lit by a dying lighter.

[Verse 1]
He hesitates, saying he has a family and a regular life now, but something keeps pulling him back. Even before he could lie, it’s like he already crossed a line. He’s acting like nothing’s wrong, casually humming and unlocking a door like it’s routine. He admits how selfish all this is and how familiar it feels—almost like 20 years ago. He’s stuck between choosing something bright and safe or giving in to the sweet, dark thrill. All the while, people around him want more—more words, more songs—and he laughs at how greedy everything feels.

[Pre-Chorus]
Tomorrow is falling apart just like someone planned, but he doesn’t care anymore—it’s all out of control now.

[Chorus]
Again, he faces the same loop. He thinks he’s catching something real, but it disappears like an illusion. He wants to hold on to the past, but he already threw away the better parts of himself. Mistakes sneak in before he notices, and the night slips away fast. The broken lighter barely lights up the mess left behind.

[Verse 2]
When his emotions take over, everything spirals. It’s like monsters fighting each other, destroying themselves. Once morning comes, it all turns to ashes—like vampires hiding in coffins, gone with the sun. This cycle keeps repeating: passion, chaos, and silence.

[Verse 3]
Even if things aren’t finished between them, he pulls away and says goodbye—really for the last time. He finishes writing this one last piece, and with that, it’s over. Still, she lingers in his thoughts, her soft skin like paper his pen keeps returning to. But now he goes back to being an ordinary dad, quietly hiding the bite marks of his wild side.

[Chorus]
One last time, he faces that same frustrating feeling—he thinks he’s close, but it’s all just a mirage. He longs to touch something that’s already been lost, already thrown away. Mistakes come too quickly to fix. The night, too short to hold on. And a faint glow from a broken lighter is all that remains of how it all played out.
