This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Every now and then I find myself back in old
Familiar places
And I look into the mirror and I can't quite recognize
Who that face is
I've been talking in my sleep
Think I've fallin' in too deep
Here I go again, dancin' round and round the edges
Here I go again, tempting fate out on the ledges
Here I go again, could be flirting with disaster
Here I go again, I should slow down but I'm going faster
Sometimes I throw caution to the wind guess I'm
Drawn into the drama
And I try to tell myself that I should stop but it
Looks like I don't wanna'
'Cause I love flyin' high
And the look that's in your eyes
I've been blind-sided and sanctified it feels
Good and bad at the same damn time
I know it's wrong but I just hold on
This addiction to you is keeping me alive
But I have to let you know
That I have to let you go
'Cause every now and then I catch a glimpse of who I am
And I don't like what I see
Familiar places
And I look into the mirror and I can't quite recognize
Who that face is
I've been talking in my sleep
Think I've fallin' in too deep
Here I go again, dancin' round and round the edges
Here I go again, tempting fate out on the ledges
Here I go again, could be flirting with disaster
Here I go again, I should slow down but I'm going faster
Sometimes I throw caution to the wind guess I'm
Drawn into the drama
And I try to tell myself that I should stop but it
Looks like I don't wanna'
'Cause I love flyin' high
And the look that's in your eyes
I've been blind-sided and sanctified it feels
Good and bad at the same damn time
I know it's wrong but I just hold on
This addiction to you is keeping me alive
But I have to let you know
That I have to let you go
'Cause every now and then I catch a glimpse of who I am
And I don't like what I see
