Everything I Wanted
Billie Eilish Lyrics


I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
Not what you'd think
And if I'm being honest

It might've been a nightmare
To anyone who might care
Thought I could fly (fly)
So I stepped off the Golden, mm
Nobody cried (cried, cried, cried, cried)
Nobody even noticed
I saw them standing right there
Kinda thought they might care (might care, might care)

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up, I see
You with me

And you say, "As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you
Don't wanna lie here
But you can learn to
If I could change
The way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear
They don't deserve you"

I tried to scream
But my head was underwater
They called me weak
Like I'm not just somebody's daughter

Coulda been a nightmare
But it felt like they were right there
And it feels like yesterday was a year ago
But I don't wanna let anybody know
'Cause everybody wants something from me now
And I don't wanna let 'em down

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up, I see
You with me

And you say, "As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you
Don't wanna lie here
But you can learn to
If I could change
The way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear
They don't deserve you"

If I knew it all then would I do it again?
Would I do it again?
If they knew what they said would go straight to my head
What would they say instead?
If I knew it all then would I do it again?
Would I do it again?
If they knew what they said would go straight to my head
What would they say instead?

"Thought I could fly....
So I stepped off the Golden..."

Yikes 😬😪.
I'm sure THAT line hits some people right in the feels.
Something in the neighborhood of 1,700 people have jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge ever since it opened in 1937. Later that same year, WW1 veteran "Harold Wobber" (most likely suffering from PTSD) was the first known person to jump off.
The water is about 220 ft. below, which allows for a FULL 4~5 seconds of free-fall, ending with an impact speed of at LEAST 75 mph.
...Man- I remember knee-boarding on the San Bernard river and wiping out at a laughable 30 knots- It completely knocked the wind out of me, and stunned my sense of balance. By the time I was done skipping across the water like some kind of Human River Stone, I had a good 10 seconds of not knowing which way was up or down. I felt like I was vibrating as I bobbed in the water (yes, of course, I had my life vest on).
...I really can't even IMAGINE hitting water at 75 mph.
Honestly, the more I think about it, the worse I feel for the people who hit the water AND SURVIVED- I would think that after THAT kind of trauma, there'd be some life long injuries.
If you ever get the chance to walk across it, (BTW prepare yourself, because it's over a mile and a half long) you'll notice the Suicide Prevention Phones and signs that are posted every so often- Just a small "something" to try and deter would-be jumpers from hopping off.
Oh!....I forgot-
They're actually IN THE PROCESS of building Anti-Jumper nets (That's MY term- THEY want to call it a "Suicide Barrier") that stick out 20 ft. and run the full length of the Bridge, both sides. The whole thing costs something like $23 MILLION dollars (...seriously? Jesus...)

The fact that everything that passes the car is on beat with the music is really cool, from lights, to trees, to trash cans, and even the bridge, it just works really well to tell the story. Idk kinda random but just a really cool detail they didn’t have to add and still did.

Quality over quantity indeed.

The lights on the towers in the background go on in time to the piano riff.
