Lyrics
Where do you think
Questioning where someone finds time and space to learn about a situation
She finds the time and the place to hear about it
Implying that the person in question is attentive and informed
Cause she'll know about it
Asserting that she will be aware of the situation
A glossed over look
Describing a superficial or indifferent expression
From all the photos they took
Referring to images captured, suggesting a facade or artificiality
She'll rip them all up
Expressing a disregard for such images by tearing them up
She got no care what they took
Indicating a lack of concern for the possessions or achievements of others
I trip over over words
Stumbling over words, possibly due to nervousness or excitement
You know I'm diving head first
Committing fully and enthusiastically to understanding her
To know about her
Expressing a desire to know more about the person in focus
How could we live without her oh
Highlighting the importance of this person in their life
A city girl
Describing the person as a city girl
Never left her world
Emphasizing her attachment to her urban lifestyle
Diamond rings
Mentioning luxury items to which she may be indifferent
Pretty things
Highlighting that material possessions don't impress her
Never really did it for her
Reiterating her lack of interest in conventional symbols of success
She can watch the house burn down
Indicating emotional detachment even in the face of destruction
And never feel a thing
Reinforcing her ability to remain unaffected by external events
She can watch the house burn down
Repeated assertion of her emotional detachment
Let it all sink
Encouraging the idea of letting go and sinking into the moment
Oh
Repetition of the idea of emotional detachment and sinking into the moment
Oh oh oh
-Oh
-Oh oh oh
-She can watch the house burn down
Reiterating her emotional resilience in the face of destruction
And never feel a thing
Emphasizing her lack of emotional response to the destruction
Where do you think you can run and hide
Questioning the possibility of escaping or avoiding scrutiny
The look on your face appears terrified
Describing a terrified expression on someone's face
We live in her dreams
Suggesting that the speaker and others exist in her dreams or fantasies
I'm fully tongue tied
Expressing speechlessness or being overwhelmed in her presence
Starting to think she's a little bored
Speculating that she might be bored, leading to certain behaviors
Fashion overboard
Describing an excessive focus on fashion
Just right
Expressing approval or appropriateness
Skin tight
Describing clothing that fits closely to the body
She won't sleep tonight
Suggesting a sleepless night due to various factors
A city girl
Reiterating her identity as a city girl
Never left her world
Re-emphasizing her strong connection to urban life
Diamond rings
Repeating the mention of luxury items
Pretty things
Reiterating her lack of interest in conventional symbols of success
Never really did it for her
Reinforcing the idea that material possessions don't impress her
She can watch the house burn down
Repeating the theme of emotional detachment in the face of destruction
And never feel a thing
Reiterating her ability to remain unaffected by external events
She can watch the house burn down
Repeated assertion of her emotional detachment
Let it all sink
Encouraging the idea of letting go and sinking into the moment
Oh
Repetition of the idea of emotional detachment and sinking into the moment
Oh oh oh
-Oh
-Oh oh oh
-She can watch the house burn down
Reiterating her emotional resilience in the face of destruction
And never feel a thing
Emphasizing her lack of emotional response to the destruction
