Lyrics
Dim the light, put out the flame
Dimming the light and extinguishing the flame.
It's a hazard, I heard them say
Referring to a hazard, possibly criticism or challenges mentioned by others.
They feared the sound of my own voice
Others were afraid of the speaker's voice, suggesting a sense of power or impact.
Thought I should too, didn't question the truth
The speaker internalized the fear, not questioning its validity.
When my world turns to a dream, can we watch it premiere
Expressing a desire for the realization of personal dreams and aspirations.
When my thoughts turn into words, I'll be sure to make it clear
Committing to clear communication when thoughts are expressed.
Come on and listen up
Encouraging others to pay attention and be receptive.
I've got this fire burning up
Announcing a passionate and intense inner drive or motivation.
You tell me when to go, but I know what I want
Acknowledging external advice but being aware of personal desires.
Listen up
Reiterating the call for attention and receptiveness.
nah nah nah nah
Repeating the call to listen, creating emphasis.
Listen up
Reinforcing the message to pay attention and be attentive.
Walk on by with a steady stride
Walking confidently despite perceived differences.
Like we're two different kinds of human
Perceiving a distinction between individuals.
Lovely eyes show me lies
Commenting on deceptive expressions seen in attractive eyes.
Wanna try to prove them wrong
Expressing a determination to challenge and disprove those lies.
When my world turns to a dream, can we watch the premiere
Reiterating the desire for personal dreams to come true.
When my thoughts turn into words, I'll be sure to make it clear
Committing to clarity in communication when thoughts are verbalized.
ooohh, ooohh
Expressing emotion, possibly enthusiasm or intensity.
Come on and listen up
Encouraging attention to the speaker's passionate drive.
I've got this fire burning up
Reiterating the intense inner fire within the speaker.
You tell me when to go, but I know what I want, what I want, yeh
Acknowledging external suggestions while asserting personal desires.
Listen up, listen up
Repeating the call to listen, creating emphasis.
nah nah nah nah
Reiterating the message to pay attention and be attentive.
Listen up, ooooh
Concluding with an emotive vocalization.
