I think this song is about hiding ones true self and creating an ‘Alter Ego’ to please everyone else. The individual’s true self is fighting with his fake alter ego stating that it isn’t that hard to be yourself. The line ‘the voice from afar’ suggests that the individual has become lost in what everyone else wants to see, and is trying to convince himself that ‘Waiting for everyone else around to argee, might take too long’
the next line ‘When it won't be so hard’ suggests that it wouldn’t be as hard to be yourself and others will accept you for who you are.
The individual battles with himself as the fake part of him is trying to convince himself that he is all he needs to be but his true self longs for more depth stating
‘Well it's true, yes, but you
wont't get far telling me
that you are all you're meant
to be, when the one from our
dream is sitting right next
to me and I don't know
what to do’
The song continues by stating all the things that is needed for an individual to be accepted and liked
‘Get them to love you,
while the may depending
on your words and wealth,’
The individual realises that the only person judging them is their ‘alter ego’
‘the only one who's really
judging you is yourself.
Nobody else.’ the individual longs to part ways with his alter ego and show people his true self
‘If I could part,
it wouldn't be so hard.’
