Meaning of "Lost In Translation" by Of Machines

The lyrics of "Lost In Translation" by Of Machines convey a betrayal by someone who was believed to be trustworthy but turns out to be deceitful. The narrator seems to have had their trust broken and now sees through the facade of the person in question. The repeated message to "listen up before I let you go" indicates a final warning before severing ties with this individual due to their lack of reliability. The line "tear down these weights, give it all, just let this go" suggests a desire to release the burden of this toxic relationship and move forward unencumbered by deceit. The references to stained glass eyes and understanding what makes a man imply a deep introspection on both the deceiver's true nature and the narrator's own growth through this experience.
