Lucky

The song 'Lucky' by Lucky Twice delves into the theme of feigned happiness and the human tendency to mask true emotions. The lyrics suggest a scenario where someone is trying to convince themselves of their own happiness and loveliness, repeating affirmations like 'I'm so lucky, lucky' and 'I'm so lovely, lovely.' This repetition could indicate a form of self-deception or an attempt to maintain a facade of joy in the face of underlying sadness or dissatisfaction.

The song touches on the idea that people often live in the moment ('Living for today') without a clear vision of the future ('but you just can't find tomorrow'), which can lead to a cycle of temporary joy overshadowed by persistent sorrow. The lines 'You can fool yourself, I promise it will help' suggest that self-deception is seen as a coping mechanism, a way to get through each day despite the realization that it's not a sustainable solution to one's problems. The mention of 'Laughing through the day' and 'Speeding through the night' implies a fast-paced life, possibly avoiding the reality of one's feelings.

The song also hints at the end of a relationship ('Even though you said it would never end it's over'), which could be the source of the sorrow that the protagonist is trying to mask. The advice to 'keep it up, don't ever stop' suggests perseverance in the face of adversity, even if it means continuing the charade of happiness. Overall, 'Lucky' portrays the bittersweet nature of pretending to be fine when one is not, and the human resilience in maintaining hope and positivity.
