Deer in headlights - John doe

Copied!

{Verse}
I will keep the world at arms length
I can handle it on my own
Why should i burden you with my thoughts
When i can just talk myself

(You dont know me)

{Chorus}
My eyes they fail to meet theirs
But who really cares
I dont think youd like me any better
If you truly knew who i am
Well many times i do speak
But it feels like you arent listening
Whenever im invited to stuff
I'd rather be alone

{Verse}
Even when we're all together
I feel no joy at all
I'm just up in my head
A pensar que fiz algo mal
I've been told im smiling much more
I guеss ive gotten at pretеnding

{Bridge}
You dont know me, though
You can call me john doe
(You dont know me)

{Chorus}
My eyes they fail to meet theirs
But who really cares
I dont think youd like me any better
If you truly knew who i am
Well many times i do speak
But it feels like you arent listening
Whenever im invited to stuff
I'd rather be alone

Song Description

edit description

"Deer in Headlights" by John Doe is a poignant and introspective song that delves into the struggles of feeling disconnected from those around you. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who keeps their emotions bottled up, preferring to keep the world at arm's length and deal with their thoughts on their own. Despite attempts to appear happy and engaged, there is a sense of loneliness and isolation that pervades the song.

The chorus captures the feeling of being unable to truly connect with others, as the protagonist's eyes fail to meet theirs and they feel like they would not be liked any better if their true self was revealed. The bridge emphasizes the idea that despite being surrounded by people, the protagonist still feels unseen and unknown, adopting the persona of "John Doe" to maintain a sense of anonymity.

Overall, "Deer in Headlights" is a raw and emotive song that explores the complexities of human connection and the struggle to be truly understood by others.
