Lyrics
How your head is turning
Feeling the impact of confusion or uncertainty
When everything's a second guess
Questioning and doubting every decision or choice
Filled up words with meaning
Assigning significance to words, possibly to create lasting memories
Just so you might not forget
Putting effort into making memories unforgettable
Do you think you're clever
Asking if one believes they are intelligent or cunning
Do you think you're clever
Repetition for emphasis on questioning one's cleverness
They said
Introduction of a statement made by others
Do you think you're clever
Reiteration of the question regarding one's cleverness
Do you think you're clever
Repetition for emphasis on questioning one's cleverness
I said
Confirmation of the speaker's own questioning
Feels like I lost my place
Expressing a sense of disorientation or displacement
Felt like I'd live forever
Reflecting on a past feeling of eternal life
Feel like I might have finally got away
Suggesting a possible escape or freedom from a situation
I think I heard that once
Recalling a similar statement or idea
The lights are bright as ever
Describing the enduring brightness of lights
I wanted to be a star
Expressing a desire or aspiration to become a star
I wanted to be a star
Repetition for emphasis on the desire to become a star
I wanted to be a star
-I wanted to be a star
-Pirouette
Using a ballet move metaphorically for transformation
Into something that could change your life
Describing an opportunity that could alter one's life
It's a target on your back
Referring to the challenges and risks associated with success
It's angel wings up to the light
Describing a transformation into something angelic and pure
Do you think you're clever
Repetition for emphasis on questioning one's cleverness
Do you think you're clever
