Lucky
Addison Agen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Knock, knock, knock on the door
Time for make-up, perfect smile
It's you they're all waiting for
They go: Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?
And they say
She's so lucky, she's a star
If there's nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?
Whoa oh oh (Why, why?)
Lost in an image, in a dream
She cried
And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning
But tell me what happens when it stops?
Ohh, isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?
And they say
She's so lucky, she's a star
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there's nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come
She's so lucky, she's a star
But shes cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there's nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?
Oh, then why do these tears come at night? (oh oh oh)
Then why do these tears come at night?
In the song "Lucky" by Addison Agen, the lyrics delve into the life of a Hollywood starlet who seemingly has everything that anyone could ever want: fame, fortune, and fans. The singer of the song is being constantly admired by others, but in reality, she is plagued by loneliness and the feeling that something is missing from her life. The first verse depicts the start of a typical day for the Hollywood star, as she gets ready for her fans who are eagerly waiting for her. However, the chorus suggests that despite her success and fame, she is still human and experiences sadness and tears just like anyone else.
The second verse continues to describe the Hollywood star's life, with her becoming "lost in an image" and living in a dream. Yet, in the lyrics, it is suggested that despite her success, she is still searching to find meaning or satisfaction in her life. The line "And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning" shows the fast-paced nature of the entertainment industry, where success can be fleeting and short-lived. The question is then raised in the line "But tell me what happens when it stops?" suggesting that the Hollywood star is aware that her time in the spotlight may not last forever.
The chorus repeats the idea that the Hollywood star is seemingly lucky to have everything but is still experiencing turmoil and sadness. The repeated question of "why do these tears come at night?" suggests that despite her efforts to put on a strong and happy facade, the Hollywood star cannot escape her own emotions and that success and fame do not always bring happiness.
