Please Don't Ask Me
Embracing Normalcy: Mikhaela Faye's Candid Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Simple is so fucking scary
Expressing fear of simplicity, finding it intimidating.
What if you don't like me, think I'm ordinary?
Concern about not being liked or perceived as ordinary.
If you saw me naked would you like what you see?
Questioning acceptance when revealing true, naked self.
I'm just being honest, fake anonymity
Being honest about the lack of authenticity, hiding behind a facade.
I don't know if you know what vulnerable means
Uncertainty if the listener understands the concept of vulnerability.
I share too much about my insecurities
Sharing personal insecurities openly.
Making jokes, staying woke to what it means to be me
Engaging in humor, staying aware of one's identity.
Yes, Queen
An affirmative expression, possibly acknowledging self-worth.
Cos you know I like it
Expressing enjoyment when the listener is excited.
When you get excited
Seeking validation for personal style and appearance.
Tell me that I'm stylish
Desiring compliments on fashion choices.
Dress like Billie Eilish
Referencing a popular artist (Billie Eilish) for emulation.
I can be your Taylor
Offering to be a significant figure in the listener's life.
Tell me what's your flavour
Asking about the listener's preferences or tastes.
Subliminal behaviour
Suggesting subtle and indirect actions or communication.
I can make it stop
Claiming the ability to control certain aspects.
Cos darling it's delightful
Expressing joy or pleasure in a charming manner.
Pretending I'm insightful
Pretending to possess deep insights.
Making like I'm woke to all my feelings
Feigning awareness and consciousness of emotions.
And that everything has meaning
Claiming depth and significance in everything.
Might sound crazy
Admitting that the previous statements may sound irrational.
Bit ordinary, maybe?
Suggesting a potential lack of uniqueness or extraordinariness.
The truth is that I just want to be normal
Expressing a desire to be ordinary or normal.
Exceptional but normal
Desiring to be outstanding but within the bounds of normalcy.
So, please don't ask me
A plea to avoid questioning or probing deeper into oneself.
Please don't ask me
Reiteration of the request not to ask probing questions.
Please don't ask me-e-e-e-e-e
Repeated plea for avoidance of self-discovery.
Please don't ask me to be me
Rejecting the request to be true to oneself, questioning self-identity.
Cos I don't know what that means
Expressing uncertainty about the meaning of being oneself.
