Lyrics
There was a girl who ruled the world and kept a diary of what she'd done
There was a girl who had significant influence and control over her surroundings and documented her experiences.
See nothin' terrified or compromised her livin' in the midnight sun
She was unafraid and uncompromised by anything, living freely despite challenges (symbolized by "midnight sun").
I asked her honestly how she keep the shimmer that was in her eye
I inquired sincerely about how she maintained the sparkle or enthusiasm in her eyes.
Or find the energy to live as free and never let a moment by
I asked how she managed to live freely without missing any moments.
She said, "be yourself"
Her advice was to embrace and stay true to oneself.
She said, "be yourself"
Reiteration of the advice to be authentic and true to oneself.
Just be yourself
Continued emphasis on the importance of being oneself.
'Cause everybody's gettin' dizzy
Everyone is becoming confused and preoccupied by pretending to be someone they are not.
Kinda busy being someone else
People are too occupied imitating others instead of being themselves.
There was a girl who ruled the world and kept a diary of where she'd gone
Similar to the first girl, another girl controlled her world and recorded her travels.
'Bout every story, every journey, she had written in the midnight sun
She documented all her experiences and adventures under the 'midnight sun'.
I asked her honestly how she keep the shimmer that was in her eye
I asked her genuinely about maintaining the radiance in her eyes.
Or find the energy to live as free and never let a moment by
I inquired about her ability to live freely without missing out on any experiences.
She said, "be yourself"
A repeated suggestion to be authentic and true to oneself.
Just be yourself
Continued emphasis on the importance of being oneself.
'Cause everybody's gettin' dizzy
People are getting confused and occupied by pretending to be someone else.
Kinda busy being someone else
People are too preoccupied with imitating others instead of being authentic.
She said, "be yourself"
Reiteration of the advice to be authentic and true to oneself.
Just be yourself
Continued emphasis on the importance of being oneself.
Be yourself
An encouragement to be true to oneself.
Just be yourself
Reiteration of the encouragement to be true to oneself.
She said, "be yourself"
Reiteration of the advice to be authentic and true to oneself.
Just be yourself
Continued emphasis on the importance of being oneself.
'Cause everybody's gettin' dizzy
People are getting confused and occupied by pretending to be someone else.
Kinda busy being someone else
People are too preoccupied with imitating others instead of being authentic.
Just be yourself
A final encouragement to be true to oneself.
