Lyrics
Never cool enough for your famous friends
Feeling inadequate or not accepted by popular or influential acquaintances.
Never had the ego to play pretend, nooo
Lacking the self-confidence to engage in pretentious behavior or false personas.
Sittin at a table, feelin tired and broke
Being seated at a table, experiencing fatigue and financial difficulties.
Everybody's laughing but I'm not in on the joke
Feeling left out or not understanding the humor in a social situation.
Cuz it's
Transition to a different time or setting in the narrative.
Three hours past midnight and I'm quickly losing steam, and I'm losing all my fragile self-esteem, so I'm going to the
Expressing exhaustion and a decline in self-worth late at night.
Rooftop, just to clear my head a little while
Seeking solace and mental clarity by going to the rooftop.
As the world stops watching me I feel a little smile
Feeling a sense of relief and happiness when no one is watching.
On the rooftop, I'll stay on the rooftop, meet me on the rooftop
Expressing a desire for company on the rooftop, challenging self-centered attitudes.
If you ever get over yourself
Inviting someone to join on the rooftop if they overcome their ego.
All the lights go down as the stars come up
Describing a moment of quietness and contemplation as external distractions fade.
Is it hard work or is it just dumb luck, ohhh
Pondering whether success is a result of hard work or mere chance.
Living in the moment as the city goes dead
Embracing the present moment as the city becomes silent.
Day is just beginning, world is spinning in my head
Reflecting on the beginning of a new day with a spinning world in the mind.
And it's six hours past midnight feeling like I'm in a dream
Experiencing a surreal feeling late at night, questioning self-worth.
Cursing at my shallow self-esteem, so I'm living on the
Frustration with a superficial sense of self-worth.
Rooftop just to clear my head a little while, as the world stops watching me I feel a little smile
Repeating the act of going to the rooftop for mental clarity and a sense of happiness.
On the rooftop, I'll stay on the rooftop, meet me on the rooftop, I'm never going inside
Commitment to staying on the rooftop and inviting others to join.
On the
Reiteration of seeking solace and mental clarity on the rooftop.
Rooftop just to clear my head a little while, as the world stops watching me I feel a little smile
Repeating the experience of feeling a sense of relief and happiness away from the public eye.
On the rooftop, I'll stay on the rooftop, meet me on the rooftop, I'm never going inside
Reaffirmation of the commitment to staying on the rooftop and resisting going inside.
