The Narcissist
Looked in the mirror
So many people standing there
I walked towards them into the floodlights
I heard no echo
There was distortion everywhere
I found my ego
I felt rubato standing there
Found my transcendent
It played in mono painted blue
You were the pirot
I was the dark room
I’m going to shine a light in your eyes
You’ll probably shine it back on me
But I won’t fall this time
With godspeed I’ll heed the signs
I saw the solstice
The service station on the road
I took the acid
Under the white horses
My heart it quickened
I could not tear myself away
Became addiction
If you see darkness look away
I’m going to shine a light in your eyes
You will probably shine it back on me
But I won’t fall this time
With godspeed I’ll heed the signs
Oh glorious world
Oh potent waves valleys gone wild
Connect us to love and keep us peaceful for a while
I’m going to shine a light in your eyes
You will probably shine it back on me
But I won’t fall this time
With godspeed I’ll heed the signs
I’m a shine a light in your eyes
You probably shine it back it back on me
But I won’t fall this time with godspeed I’ll heed the signs
But I won’t fall this time with godspeed I’ll heed the signs

Always a sign of a decent song. Blur doing this. Noel last couple of singles off his new album. It's amazing these guys are still able to put decent music out 30 years plus after they 1st broke through.

I never said it was?! But it’s a matter of opinion and a completely different style of song. Personally I think it’s superior on a lyrical basis, I’ve never felt Song 2 was one of Blur’s best songs, it’s just a good rock out song, not genius songcraft, and I love heavy riffage. But perhaps I’m also a little jaded from it being over played, it’s not like it has the real depth and layers that some great Blur songs have.

@paultest4544 10 ай бұрын

I'm not an expert, but this is my guess.. the word Narcissist comes from the Greek story about Narcissus, he was very vain and would look at his reflection every time he passed a pool of water. The god turned him into a flower (Daffodil, which is also called narcissus). The flower looks like a person looking down (sort of).. So the word Narcissist back in the old days used to just mean a vain person looking at himself in the mirror. Over time, it evolved into the super negative word it is today.. So the way I took this song, the singer is talking to his reflection in the mirror.. he says he will shine a light in your eyes, you'll probably shine it back on me".. because he's talking to his reflection, reflecting on life.. maybe I'm 100% wrong, but that's my guess.

@saintjabroni 9 ай бұрын

That’s how I like to take it. I’m exiting a year-long relationship with a Covert Narc. It’s so bad…you don’t know till you know (hopefully y’all reading this don’t someday)… And even by then you may be not ready to “go”… Once you’ve had real feelings for the person. I’ll prevail stronger and much wiser from this mess. All she had on me was emotional leverage. That’s it. She really was/isn’t that smart when you consider the warped logic she possesses. Computing her arguments were like trying to listen to anything inside a tornado.

Damon, or anyone else from the band, I doubt you'll see this, but here goes. I am codependent. A while ago, I dated my first narcissist. Took everything from me. All of my money, friends, my car (she crashed it) yada yada. I've been slowly rebuilding my life but finding a job has been challenging without a car. I've loved gorillaz since the first album. Had that shit in my Walkman every day. Dracula remains my favorite song of yours. I just wanted to let you know that your lyrics here describe what it's like perfectly. The melancholy, the always trying to "figure them out", all of that. The hope spots, the up and down, the back and forth. I am also a surf fisherman, so getting back to the waves to experience love, that line piques me so much. She never let me go out there. Always found excuses. I want to say that I won't forget either. Godspeed, next time I swear I'll pay attention to the signs. They might be chameleons, but nobody on that dark triad will ever be able to fool me ever again. Thank you for continuing to produce absolutely awesome music. I used to make electronica, but my stuff was too experimental. I didn't want to compromise my art to make money. I have no idea how artists of your caliber balance that, but the results of that balancing act are amazing. I also want to say that if you wrote this song because you were damaged by a narcissist, stay strong. The healing process is long and complicated but you will get through it. Every day the sun rises without you next to them is another day of freedom.

The new album cover is a masterpiece. It simultaneously references their first four album covers AND, I would argue, the incredible 1968 film “The Swimmer”. If you’ve seen that movie, you’ll get what I’m saying. If this new album cover isn’t a reference to that movie, it’s an amazing coincidence.

I've been listening to this song for the past month since it came out now and I am just so happy that Blur is releasing new music! I thought that after The Magic Whip, that was it and there wouldn't be anymore. Looks like I was proved wrong! I absolutely love this along with previous works and finding out all the very underrated tracks from the deluxe albums that I've been discovering for the past year now. I'm excited for the new album and even though I won't be able to fly to England and see Blur at the Wembley or anywhere else in Europe, I'll at least have the new album and the new memories I'll make with the songs. Glad to have you back, Blur! ❤

60 days I listen to the narcissist I don't feel bored at all, a song that has very deep meaning for me with music that is so sentimental, the lyrics enter my head so I sing along with Damon's voice and maybe this song is very related to everyone including me.
