Lyrics
It's like I'm in the canteen
Feels like I'm in a casual setting (canteen).
Sixteen, with nothing to say
At the age of sixteen, lacking significant things to say.
Your fucking boyfriend looks up
Referring to the listener's boyfriend in a provocative way.
So I look back down at my tray
Avoiding eye contact by looking down at the tray.
I'm sure he takes your breath away
Suggesting that the boyfriend is attractive to the listener.
In fact I know because you told me so
Recalling a conversation where the listener praised the speaker.
I guess I'm good enough for soundcheck but I never catch the show
Feeling valued for soundcheck but missing out on the actual show.
I'm wise to what I am to you
Aware of the speaker's role in the listener's life.
Miles, miles away from having you right here on this table
Expressing distance from being close to the listener.
Your eyes in mine
Desiring a deep connection with eye contact.
I wanna be your everything, all the time
Expressing a desire to be the listener's everything consistently.
I wanna be your everything, all the time
Repeating the desire to be the listener's everything.
Ah, Jesus Christ, I want you
Exclaiming a strong desire for the listener (possibly romantically).
I'll take a ticket, I'll get in line
Willing to make efforts and wait to be with the listener.
To be your everything, all the time
Reiterating the desire to be the listener's everything consistently.
I wanna be your last name
Expressing a desire to be intimately connected, like sharing a last name.
I wanna be your dirty dream
Desiring to be a provocative and enticing dream for the listener.
I wanna be your shoelace, your necklace
Expressing a desire to be intimately close, like shoelace and necklace.
The seam on your jeans
Desiring to be a significant part of the listener's life, like the seam on jeans.
Your end, your means
Wishing to be both the end and means in the listener's life.
Dress you head to toe
Expressing a desire to dress the listener entirely.
Dream a dream forever, never ever let it go
Dreaming of a lasting dream without letting it go.
Hold on to it forever and never ever let you know
Wanting to hold onto the dream without revealing it to the listener.
That I wanna be your everything, all the time
Reiterating the desire to be the listener's everything consistently.
I wanna be your everything, all the time
Repeating the desire to be the listener's everything.
Ah, Jesus Christ, I want you
Expressing a strong desire for the listener (possibly romantically).
I'll take a ticket, I'll get in line
Willing to make efforts and wait to be with the listener.
To be your everything, all the time
Reiterating the desire to be the listener's everything consistently.
And you could be my everything, all the time
Extending the desire for mutual exclusivity in being everything for each other.
You make me feel like music
Comparing the listener's effect on the speaker to the impact of music.
I don't wanna be a sad boy
Expressing a desire to avoid sadness and be more positive.
I wanna be your fucking bad boy
Expressing a desire to be a rebellious and exciting figure for the listener.
Oh, I'm not a sad boy
Asserting that the speaker is not a sad figure.
You make me feel like music
Repeating the positive impact of the listener, akin to music.
I wanna dance my life away
Expressing a desire to dance and celebrate life with the listener.
I wanna be your everything, all the time
Reiterating the desire to be the listener's everything consistently.
Ah, Jesus Christ, I want you
Expressing a strong desire for the listener (possibly romantically).
I'll take a ticket, I'll get in line
Willing to make efforts and wait to be with the listener.
To be your everything, all the time
Reiterating the desire to be the listener's everything consistently.
And you could be my everything, all the time
Extending the desire for mutual exclusivity in being everything for each other.
Oh, we could be everything, all the time
Expressing a joint possibility of being everything for each other consistently.
