Lyrics

It's all the little things

Various small details or aspects

Descending in the hope for what tomorrow brings

Hoping for what the future holds

Depending what you wear and what you choose to sing

Your appearance and the songs you choose to perform impact things

But slumped forward on bars, seeing circles in stars

Feeling mentally or emotionally exhausted, perceiving confusion or disorientation

You'll find it hard to define who you are

Struggling to define one's identity

With acclaim, you find it anywhere you are

Fame or recognition is achievable regardless of location

It's in the dictionary under stars who think they're stars

In the dictionary, there are definitions for people who believe they are celebrities

But then judgment doesn't go far

But being judgmental doesn't lead to understanding

You've broken the bounds of the circling stars

Breaking away from constraints imposed by perceived fame or status


Show me fame

Show me the allure of fame

Decide who to blame

Decide whom to hold responsible

Let me think about it all night

Contemplate deeply throughout the night

Why do you have to show me again

Questioning why something is being presented again

When you were right the first time

Reflecting that the initial assessment or decision was correct


I've watched you turn into a goodbye

Observing someone transforming into a goodbye or departure

Almost into a stranger

Almost becoming unrecognizable, akin to a stranger

The dead have been seen alive

A metaphorical reference to unexpected occurrences or surprises

Take my car and drive away, towards the river

Take control and leave, moving towards something uncertain

Drive to the end of the river

Travel to the farthest point of uncertainty or change


And show me fame

Show me the allure of fame

Decide who to blame

Decide whom to hold responsible

Let me think about it all night

Contemplate deeply throughout the night

Why do you have to show me again

Questioning why something is being presented again

When you were right the first time

Reflecting that the initial assessment or decision was correct


Show me blame

Show me who's at fault

Let me think about fame

Let me deeply contemplate the allure of fame

I'll think about it all night

Intending to ponder throughout the night

Why do you have to show me again

Questioning why something is being presented again

I believed you more the first time

Believing someone more during the initial instance
