JDove - Nice To Meet You [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I know I know I know you are here
I know I know I know you are here

Born alone, die the same
You die a clone, you lived in vain
Paint a picture, say you weird
From that point on the girl you never knew disappeared

Puttin’ on make up when you wake up
Out of sight, out of mind
As long as you hide from yourself
You’ll be pressed for time

Like what they think of me
Is better than bravery
Everyday I’m judged on how I look
It’s called popularity

I don’t even know what to say to me
Made myself my worst enemy
I think I’d be better off if I just try and get rid of me

Wasted time and energy contemplatin’ the ledge
Tears begun to stream down your face as you dangle your legs

It’s bigger than moms and dads
They follow fads from ads
It’s about time you get lifted I’m giving out launching pads

Tell a hater you don’t know me
No one knows me, what’s the use in living for?
Welcome to the life you never seen before
I’ll point you to the door

(Chorus)

We haven’t met, how could this be?
Lost in a world that wasn’t me
You’ve seen my flaws you know it all
Look in a mirror and there you are

Why’d you hide from me?
Don’t hide from me! Don’t hide from me!
Don’t hide from me! Don’t hide from me!
Don’t hide from me! Don’t hide from me!
I’d like to see you again

I don’t even like these clothes
Find myself watching these corny shows
At least I’ll blend in with my peers
Might as well make the best of these 4 years

Just 4 years? Friends don’t matter
Done with adolescence and useless chatter
You graduated but barely made it
Faced with life the morning after

Baffled souls stiffer than totem poles
With your arms stretched
Hoping to be embraced with a face that screams out I’m vexed!

Where do I go from here on a path that’s not my own
I tried knocking on the mirror just to see if you were home
But you were gone, left to cry alone

How could this be? Unintentionally you vanished
Left the planet, unaware of further damage

Try to manage this and it’s hard to mend the pieces
And it’s hard to love yourself, when we bite the hand that feeds us

Why do we accept the approval of those?
You wanna smell me first clean your nose
A man who walks behind copycat will always stub his toes

Introductions are the best especially when you’re meeting you
No bluetooth involved don’t worry it’s just me I’m talking to be you…

Why’d you hide from me?
Tell me why you hid
I’m in my twenties now and just escaped a life I thought I lived

But I don’t blame you hidin’
If I were you I would’ve hid too
You saw a stranger whose image was clearly not you

So I take off the clothes, and kick off the shoes
And expose the only suit that we both can use

This is your birthday, go ahead cut cake
Rather you show up late than never
Instead of it’s too late

It’s time to show you off
And let the world see, my new best friend
Wanna know my friend you simply ask me

I’m sorry I made you nervous
Know I’ll never do it on purpose
Reality blinded me nah I can see you’re more than worthless

Picture perfect, perfect match
Good connection strings attached
An empty sky is voided by the ones with wings who never hatch

Leave the nest mirror mirror tell me who’s the best
You finally showed lo and behold the one you should impress...
