Lyrics
Everybody's jealous
Expressing that envy is a common sentiment among people.
Strangers even friends
Suggesting that jealousy can arise even among acquaintances and close friends.
You make it look so easy
Commending someone for making life appear effortless.
All the hashtags and the trends
Referring to the prominence of social media trends and hashtags in contemporary life.
Every pictures perfect
Highlighting the perfection portrayed in every photograph.
A real life magazine
Comparing real life to a polished magazine, emphasizing the idealized nature of the portrayed images.
From the parties every weekend
Describing a lifestyle involving frequent partying.
To your perfect Christmas tree
Mentioning the effort put into creating an impeccable Christmas tree, possibly symbolizing the pursuit of perfection.
But if you're being honest
Raising the question of honesty in presenting one's life.
How much of it is real mhmm
Challenging the authenticity of the portrayed life.
Cause we all got our problems
Acknowledging that everyone faces difficulties.
And I just can't help but feel oh oh
Expressing a personal sense of unease or discontent.
It's not always
Indicating that life is not always positive.
Sunshine and perfect afternoons
Contrasting the notion of perfect afternoons with the reality of challenges.
It's not always
Reiterating the idea that life is not consistently celebratory.
Champagne and fancy gold balloons oh no
Suggesting that not every moment is marked by luxury and celebration.
It's not always
Emphasizing the recurring theme that life is not always ideal.
No no no it's not always
Repeating the message that perfection is not constant.
I'm not being honest
Admitting personal guilt in contributing to the facade of a flawless life.
I'm guilty of it too
Acknowledging an addiction to seeking validation and approval.
Addicted and I'm hoping
Expressing the hope that the addictive behaviors are accepted and loved.
You love everything I do
Recognizing the need for external validation in various activities.
So if we're being honest
Prompting an honest reflection on the authenticity of one's actions.
How much of it is real mhmm
Questioning the sincerity of portrayed actions and emotions.
Cause we all got our problems
Reiterating that everyone has their share of problems.
And I can't just help but feel oh oh
Expressing an inability to ignore a sense of unease or discontent.
It's not always
Reiterating the message that life is not always positive.
Sunshine and perfect afternoons
Stressing the contrast between challenging times and perfect afternoons.
It's not always
Emphasizing that luxury and celebration are not constants in life.
Champagne and fancy gold balloons oh no
Highlighting the inconsistency in life with the metaphor of fancy gold balloons.
It's not always
Repeating the idea that not every moment is ideal.
Sunshine and perfect afternoons
Stressing the fluctuating nature of life between challenges and perfect moments.
It's not always
Reiterating the theme that not every moment is marked by luxury and celebration.
Champagne and fancy gold balloons oh no
Continuing to emphasize the inconsistency in life with the metaphor of fancy gold balloons.
It's not always
