- Camera LyricsBe close to me now
I'll be your guide
Once we have black hearts
then love dies
Look at us
Through the lens of a camera
Does it remove
All of our pain?
If we run
To look in the back room
Where we hide
All of our feelings
I just close my eyes as you walk out
I'll keep your eyes wide open tonight
Keep the car on the road now
feel the fight
Look at us
Through the lens of a camera
Does it remove
All of our pain?
If we run
To look in the back room
Where we hide
All of our feelings
I just close my eyes as you walk out
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
Look at us
Through the lens of a camera
Does it remove
All of our pain?
If we run
To look in the back room
Where we hide
All of our secrets
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk out
I'll be your guide
Once we have black hearts
then love dies
Look at us
Through the lens of a camera
Does it remove
All of our pain?
If we run
To look in the back room
Where we hide
All of our feelings
I just close my eyes as you walk out
I'll keep your eyes wide open tonight
Keep the car on the road now
feel the fight
Look at us
Through the lens of a camera
Does it remove
All of our pain?
If we run
To look in the back room
Where we hide
All of our feelings
I just close my eyes as you walk out
The fall with such grace
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
You fall from grace
The fall with such grace
Look at us
Through the lens of a camera
Does it remove
All of our pain?
If we run
To look in the back room
Where we hide
All of our secrets
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk
I just close my eyes as you walk out

When we look deeper into its meaning, 'Camera' is the title of the song of the British band Editors and it deals with the matter of masking emotions and pain throughout the process of being observed closely. The lens of the camera as a metaphor is used to portray the very situation where such a bold march into the light is experienced. The lyrics are quite graphic in illustrating the effort of preserving one's look while experiencing the worst and they even mention 'graciously falling from grace', which shows acceptance and strength coming out of the hard times. In fact, Camera lays bare mainly the motifs of heartbreak, angst, love, despair and introspection. Along with these, the song also highlights the dichotomy of love vs. loss, pain vs. concealment, and grace vs. falling. According to the lyrics, themes of love, pain, and emotional struggles are so pronounced that they make the song inappropriate for very young children. Still, no explicit language, violence, or adult content is present that would require the song to be rated higher. Emotional depth of the themes leads to the recommendation of parental guidance.
