Lyrics

You're so smart

You possess intelligence

Tell me, where did you go to school?

Inquires about your educational background

Maybe I'll enroll

Expresses a willingness to enroll in the same school

You've got it all figured out

Acknowledges your comprehensive understanding of life

I guess there's nothing you don't know

Suggests there is no knowledge gap for you

You don't know. You don't know

Reiterates the idea that there are things unknown to you

You don't know

Emphasizes the lack of certain knowledge


When you've reached the end, and it's lights out

Describes a moment of completion, possibly end of life

Congratulations. You're nothing now

Sarcastically congratulates on becoming insignificant after death


Stand at your podium and cite every tragedy you've learned of

Encourages standing and recounting tragic experiences

You felt no presence

Reflects on a lack of a divine presence

Pity how we should succumb to something reaching out past what we've earned

Expresses regret at succumbing to external influences beyond what is deserved

Well, we've got more lessons

Anticipates further learning experiences


When you've reached the end, and it's lights out

Repeats the theme of reaching the end and lights out

Congratulations. You're nothing now

Sarcastically congratulates again on becoming insignificant


Is this what you want

Repetition of questioning whether the current state is desired

Is this what you want

-

Is this what you want

-

Is this what you want

-

When you've reached the end, and it's lights out

Repeats the theme of reaching the end and lights out with sarcasm

Congratulations. You're nothing now

-

When you've reached the end, and it's lights out

-

Congratulations. You're nothing now

-

Nothing

Emphasizes nothingness, possibly reflecting on insignificance

Nothing
