All About Me
Chasing Freedom: Alice Peacock's Anthem of Self-Indulgence
Lyrics
Id like to get stoned
Expressing a desire to be in a relaxed or carefree state through the use of the term "stoned."
Never come home
Wishing to avoid returning home, possibly seeking escape or independence.
Iâ¬"d like to be free
Desiring freedom and a break from societal expectations or norms.
Not do what I should
Expressing a preference for personal desires over responsibilities or obligations.
Do what feels good
Advocating for following one's instincts and pursuing what brings pleasure.
With whomever I please
Expressing a desire for unrestricted relationships and interactions.
Iâ¬"d never look back
Rejecting the idea of looking back on past decisions or experiences.
Like Jack Kerouac
Referencing Jack Kerouac, suggesting a desire for a spontaneous and adventurous lifestyle.
Follow my dreams
Expressing a wish to pursue personal aspirations and goals.
From here to the sea
Expressing a desire to follow dreams and ambitions without limitations.
Leave it all in the dust
Wishing to leave behind the past and move forward without hesitation.
If only it was
Expressing a sense of longing for a reality where everything revolves around oneself.
All about me
Summarizing the desire for a life focused solely on personal fulfillment.
Someday
Expressing the hope for a future change or transformation.
When Iâ¬"m not wired this way
Acknowledging a current state of being, possibly implying challenges or difficulties.
But I know that that day
Recognizing that the desired change may never materialize.
Will never come
Expressing a sense of resignation or acceptance of the current situation.
No sacrifice
Desiring a life without the need for significant sacrifices or compromises.
Yeah thatâ¬"d be nice
Reflecting on the positive impact a life without sacrifice would have.
What a change that would be
Acknowledging the unlikelihood of such a drastic change.
But the life that I got
Acknowledging the current reality of the speaker's life.
I guess that itâ¬"s not
Recognizing that life doesn't revolve around the speaker's desires alone.
All about me
Reiterating that life is not entirely focused on the individual.
Iâ¬"d like to get stoned
Repeating the desire to be in a carefree state through getting "stoned."
Bet Iâ¬"m not alone
Suggesting that others may share the desire to be in a relaxed state.
This song has been sung
Indicating that the expression of these desires is a common theme in the song.
Itâ¬"s over and done
Concluding that the song has conveyed the desired message and is now finished.
Thatâ¬"s all about me
Affirming that the song's theme revolves around the individual's desires and perspectives.
