Lyrics
Make your big plans, pretend they fell through
Encourages making ambitious plans but feigning disappointment when they don't succeed.
When nothing really works out quite right for you
Expresses a sense of continuous disappointment or frustration with life's outcomes.
So you tell 'em all to tell 'em off and say that you're through
Advises disregarding others' opinions and declaring a break from unfulfilling situations.
When you just wanna show em all that you are brand new
Desire to demonstrate a positive change or transformation to others.
Big break, keep it to yourself
Suggests keeping significant opportunities or breakthroughs private.
Mistakes, get put on the shelf
Errors or failures are not openly acknowledged but set aside.
I could never really help myself out the hole
Personal struggles are admitted, and there is a difficulty in self-help.
But I found a new way new place I can go
Discovers a new way or place to overcome challenges.
You're all I knew
Refers to someone or something that was familiar or known.
All that was left
Emphasizes the limited remains or remnants of the past.
Left in my head
The lingering thoughts or memories in one's mind.
You're Mr. Big Shot (aye aye aye)
Addresses someone as "Mr. Big Shot," possibly sarcastically, implying arrogance or self-importance.
But you never really had to stop (aye aye aye)
Suggests that this person never faced a need to stop or reassess their actions.
Climbing right up to the top (aye aye aye)
Describes the ambition to reach the pinnacle of success.
Don't forget to shoot your shot, big shot big shot
Encourages taking opportunities or risks, emphasizing the importance of making an effort.
So here we are again, my only friend
Expresses a recurring situation with the same companion or circumstance.
I hate to see this out until the very end
Reluctance to witness a situation until its conclusion.
I can tell this look you've painted onto your face
Perceives a fake or forced expression on someone's face.
Times up, undone you live your life like a race
Time has run out, and the individual lives life hurriedly or recklessly.
Big break, keep it to yourself
Reiteration of the importance of keeping significant breakthroughs private.
Mistakes get put on the shelf

I can never really help myself in time

You're what I need, but can never find
