Miracle

From the outset, 'Miracle' plunges into a turbulent emotional journey, with The Score's members openly discussing the hardships they endure. The lyrics suggest a battle with mental health as they mention being 'medicated' and finding it hard to express themselves. As the song progresses, it's clear that these struggles are intertwined with the relentless pursuit of success in a cutthroat industry. The pre-chorus encapsulates a sense of frustration and disillusionment with the music industry's gatekeeping, highlighting that 'success is a door that always slams'.

The emotional journey intensifies in the choruses, where the repetition of 'I'm losing my mind' signifies an escalating internal crisis. The struggle to discover 'the perfect line' metaphorically represents the search for meaning and identity in their work. These lines also reflect the urgency and the race against time that many artists feel when trying to achieve their goals before their window of opportunity shuts.

Emotionally, 'Miracle' takes a grittier turn as it tackles the concept of authenticity in 'this battle for gold'—success. The Score asserts the difficulty of staying true to oneself when faced with constant setbacks and a sense of jadedness. The internal strife continues in the bridge, which culminates in an admission of nearing a breaking point. The mention of being 'minutes away from going insane' is a raw acknowledgment of The Score's vulnerability and the immense pressure that builds up over time.

Returning to the chorus, the emotional voyage comes full circle, relaying a sense of desperation for a miraculous change. The titular 'mira-miracle' is a beacon of hope amidst the chaos — a plea for any sign of progress or positivity to cling onto. The song ends by leaving listeners with an unresolved yearning for a 'miracle,' echoing the persistent struggle but also the unyielding hope that defines the band's journey.
