Lyrics
It's not what I can see
Expressing that perception is not limited to sight.
It's not what I can hear
Highlighting that perception is not limited to hearing.
It doesn't trouble me
Indicating that certain things don't bother the speaker.
But still it's around
Despite lack of concern, the subject is still present.
You know what I'm thinking
Suggesting the speaker can anticipate or understand others' thoughts.
And when I'm celebrating
Referencing moments of joy or achievement.
I feel your eyes on me
Feeling observed, possibly by an unseen presence.
But I can't see you
Despite feeling observed, the source is not visible.
You understand I'm not afraid
Expressing fearlessness regarding someone's complete dedication.
Of your complete devotion now
Acknowledging and welcoming intense commitment.
But if it ever gets out of hand
Warning about potential consequences if dedication becomes excessive.
I'll bring you down
Asserting readiness to counterbalance excessive devotion.
Everywhere I go you're there
Emphasizing the omnipresence of a particular presence.
Everywhere I go you're there
Reiterating the constant presence of the mentioned entity.
Everywhere I go you're there
Highlighting the pervasive nature of the observed entity.
Can't you see you're driving me insane?
Expressing the overwhelming impact of constant observation.
I'm not advertising
Clarifying that the speaker is not intentionally promoting or criticizing.
Or am I criticizing
Stating the neutrality of the speaker's stance.
But if I had a choice
Expressing a desire for solitude or independence if given a choice.
You'd leave me alone
Reinforcing the preference for being left alone.
It's not that I've done wrong
Denying any wrongdoing on the part of the speaker.
I never think I'm wrong
Asserting a belief in personal correctness.
But when you're watching me
Feeling a sense of guilt when being observed.
I feel so guilty
Highlighting the discomfort caused by constant scrutiny.
It's not the way I thought it'd be
Expressing dissatisfaction with the reality compared to expectations.
The lack of all my privacy
Addressing the loss of privacy in the speaker's life.
And if it ever gets out of hand
Reiterating the warning about potential negative consequences of excessive observation.
I'll bring you down
Reasserting the speaker's commitment to counteracting excessive devotion.
(Repeat Chorus)
Repeating the chorus to emphasize the persistent theme of constant presence.
