"DISGUISE" by Lene Marlin | an underrated song

Hello dear music lovers around the world! How are you doing? Hopefully you are all doing amazing! Don't forget to keep listening to music wherever you are and anytime! :) It's almost the weekend and guess what? I am so excited because my family and I are at the start of a long holiday until next week.

Here, where the majority of the population is Muslim, we celebrate Eid and even though I don't celebrate it, I still take part in the holiday, hehe. What about you guys? I hope you stay enthusiastic even though you don't have a long holiday! :)

This time I recommend you, there aren’t many songs, and just one song because this song is very meaningful and invites us to reflect a little about the life we live. The first time I heard and knew this song was actually from the soundtrack of an old Mandarin film called "Twins" and immediately I fell in love with this song. The vocalist's voice Lene is very nice and soft and the pop and light music is very suitable for us to listen to and enjoy. We will immediately love the song the first time we hear it, especially since the lyrics contain a very deep meaning. Let’s go find out! :)

I'm trying to interpret this song verse by verse, I hope I'm doing well. If you have another point of view of interpreting, you may share it! :)

Have you ever felt some kind of emptiness inside?
You will never measure up to those people
Must be strong, can't show them that you're weak

We must have felt what is called loneliness. Is there a feeling of loneliness in your heart? an immeasurable sense of emptiness. You can't choose how much it affects you. So don't show your true feelings too much to everyone, don't let them see you as weak.

Have you ever told someone something
That's far from the truth?
Let them know that you're okay
Just to make them stop
All the wondering, and questions they may have

Whether we have ever told a big lie that is far from the truth? If that's the case, that's fine, let it be what has happened. Now just show that you are okay with your situation so that they stop bothering you with their curiosity about you, about whatever you are facing and have been through.

I'm okay, I really am now
Just needed some time, to figure things out
Not telling lies, I'll be honest with you
Still we don't know what's yet to come

I'm fine and that's what I have to say to myself. Then everything I say will happen. I just need time to understand many things in my life, in the world I live in. Don't lie to me because I will also be honest with you. Neither of us will know what will happen in the future. So, try to be the best version of each of you.

Have you ever seen your face
In a mirror there's a smile
But inside you're just a mess
You feel far from good
Need to hide, 'cause they'd never understand

Have you ever reflected your life? I think you have, looking back on your past or present or even your future and when you think about it all, you seem to smile and feel that everything is fine in front of everyone even though what actually happens is that you are not fine, or even feel confused. Let it look beautiful on the outside but inside it is destroyed. But in this world there are some things that must remain hidden because the people around us are not willing to understand from the heart.

Have you ever had this wish
Of being somewhere else?
To let go of your disguise, all your worries too
And from that moment, then you see things clear

Have you ever imagined or wanted to be someone else? Yes, to be honest, I have and I think most people have felt like this. Where we see other people's lives look more fun and better than ours so we will think about wanting to have other people's lives. This is so that we can let go of all our disguises and all our worries. But if our wish really happens, actually the other person's life is the same as ours, not as fun as we thought, not what we imagine. Everyone turns out to be the same at the end.

I'm okay, I really am now
Just needed some time, to figure things out
Not telling lies, I'll be honest with you
Still we don't know what's yet to come

Are you waiting for that day when your pain will disappear?
When you know that it's not true what they say about you
You couldn't care less 'bout the things surrounding you
Ignoring all the voices from my wall

We wait for the time, the time when all the pain, fear, worries, everything disappears. When that time happens, wonder what other people will think about us. We can't just ignore our surroundings, but all we can do is be fine, then we will be fine. Tell yourself that everything will be fine then we really will be fine.

I'm okay, I really am now
Just needed some time
To figure things out
Not telling lies
I'll be honest with you
Still we don't know what's yet to come

I'm okay, I really am now
Just needed some time
To figure things out
Not telling lies
I'll be honest with you

Still we don't know what's yet to come
Still we don't know what's yet to come
Still we don't know what's yet to come
