Black Out Days

The lyrics describe someone trying to distance themselves from a person and from painful thoughts. At first, the speaker commands the other person to stay away and tries to erase their face from memory. As the song continues, the speaker’s inner experience seems increasingly confused and intense: voices fill their head, and they no longer recognize the person. The repeated words suggest that this struggle is hard to escape.

Several images make the distress feel vivid. “Hide the sun” may suggest wanting to shut out hope, clarity, or the outside world. The “mirror on the wall” turns the speaker toward self-questioning, as if they are searching for a way to keep the unwanted person or feelings away. “Fireworks exploding in my hands” suggests a sudden, overwhelming force that the speaker cannot safely control. The sky painted “bloody red” gives the scene a threatening, almost nightmarish mood.

“Black out days” could mean periods of lost memory or awareness, but it may also describe days that feel dark and emotionally blurred. The lyrics do not explain exactly who the voices are or why the relationship has changed. They may be literal experiences, or figurative language for intrusive thoughts and emotional pain. Either way, the final loss of recognition suggests that distance has become more than a choice: the speaker feels estranged from someone who once mattered.
