Navigating Life Beyond High School: Charlotte Dirckze's Reflection in 'Glory Days'
Lyrics
I don't know about you but I feel like that wasn't very high school musical
The speaker doesn't feel the situation is like a scene from "High School Musical."
I don't know about you but I feel like everything's satirical
The speaker perceives everything as satirical or mocking.
It's a joke
The situation is seen as a joke.
I'm mad, I'm sad, It's fine, let go of what we had
The speaker expresses a mix of emotions but suggests letting go of the past.
Yeah I know that for sure
An affirmation that the speaker is certain about their feelings.
These aren't my glory days
The present time is not considered as the speaker's glory days.
I'm much too far away to even care for a while
The speaker feels emotionally distant and unconcerned for a while.
Don't tell me to smile
Resisting the pressure to smile despite the circumstances.
These aren't our glory days
The current period is not seen as the collective glory days.
We're much too far away to even care for a while
A collective sense of emotional distance and disinterest.
This shits kinda vile
Describing the current situation as unpleasant or repulsive.
Glory days, stripped away
A repetition emphasizing the loss or removal of past glorious times.
Glory days, stripped away
Continued emphasis on the removal or loss of glory days.
My head hurts and my neck hurts
The speaker is experiencing physical discomfort.
But that doesn't excuse the fact that I should think
Despite physical discomfort, the speaker acknowledges the need to think about the future.
About the future and what's mine
The speaker reflects on contemplating the future and personal possessions.
I'm mad, I'm sad, It's fine, let go of what we had
Reiteration of mixed emotions and the advice to let go of the past.
Yeah I know that for sure
Reaffirmation of the speaker's certainty about their feelings.
These aren't my glory days
The current time is reiterated as not being the speaker's glory days.
I'm much too far away to even care for a while
Emotional distance and indifference persist for a while.
Don't tell me to smile
Resistance to being told to smile in the current circumstances.
These aren't our glory days
Collectively, the present time is not considered as the glory days for the speaker and others.
We're much too far away to even care for a while
Continued sense of emotional distance and disinterest for a while.
This shits kinda vile
Reiteration of the current situation being unpleasant or repulsive.
