| Apocalyptica – End Of Me Lyrics

I have experienced what the singer is going through. The person he's singing about is a narcissist and a drama queen who pulls him into her world. She suffocates him by taking away his very being, thus he walks in her shadow. She uses him only for the purpose of satisfying her insatiable need for attention. She has reflected her inner emptiness onto him to leave him feeling empty as well. This broken woman, for whom he once had sympathy, is driving him away; for she is trapped inside the wreckage of her deep misery and can offer him nothing in return for his love. She stands behind her mask of narcissism as her world falls all around her. She has no empathy for him or anybody else, thus she drives all who love her away. There is nothing the man can do to save her, for all he's tried to do has been wasted and he has no choice but to leave her...otherwise "it will be the end" for him. |

i agree with RCJPistolPete but i take it a step further -- i believe the song is about a narcissist. "all is lost again" to me signifies the never ending cycle of the narcissist to push the ones who love him away, every relationship is eventually lost due to his demanding and rigid personality ... but he's not giving in, and will continue the destructive cycle. "i will not bow, i will not break, i will shut the world away" - he stays within his own world of fantasy, he is isolated.."cold blooded fake" fits perfectly, as the narcissist wears a mask of self-confidence to cover his true self which is fragile and filled with shame. |
