Be Good to Me
Christine Lyrics

Everything comes to an ending
No matter how important or successful you are, one day everything will come to an end.

No matter who you are above
Even if you are in a position of power, success or fame, everything will eventually end.

I am here and I'm pretending
Christine is acknowledging that she is pretending to be okay when she actually misses the things she once had.

That I don't miss the things I love

Don't make me feel bad for the things that I can't change
Christine is asking not to be blamed for things outside of her control or for mistakes she has made in the past.

Don't lay my life out let me make my own mistakes
Christine wants to be able to make her own choices and learn from her own mistakes rather than being told what to do or how to live.

I'm running from reason
Christine is avoiding facing the facts and logic of a situation.

Kicking and screamin'
Christine is putting up a fight against something she doesn't want to accept.

Don't run my life

I know there ain't no second try
Christine realizes that in life there are no second chances or do-overs, so she wants to make the most of her opportunities.

'Cause I just wanted to be 18

I wasn't built for waiting

Just let me live my life
Christine wants to be allowed to live her life on her own terms.

It's like you think I never listen
Christine feels like others don't pay attention to her or listen to what she has to say.

Don't discriminate, don't make me hesitate
Christine doesn't want to be judged or treated unfairly because of her age or other factors. She wants to be allowed to move forward with confidence.

And I, I think things happen for a reason
Christine believes in fate and that everything happens for a reason, even if it's not immediately clear.

I always run so fast, I can't hear what they're sayin'
Christine is so focused on moving forward that she sometimes misses important advice or feedback from those around her.

Don't turn up your nose and turn away your head
Christine is asking others to pay attention to her and take her seriously, even though she is young.

I may be younger but I'm smarter than you said
Christine is suggesting that others may underestimate her intelligence or abilities because of her age or other factors, but she knows she is capable and smart.

Don't blame yourself
Christine doesn't want others to feel responsible for her choices or decisions.

Oh, I just can't figure me out
Christine is admitting that she is still figuring out who she is and what she wants in life.

You walk but I run
Christine is moving at a faster pace than those around her, perhaps in terms of achieving her goals or making changes in her life.

You're not me, I'm the only one
Christine is unique and no one else can fully understand or relate to her experiences and feelings.

Yeah, let me be
Christine wants to be allowed to live her life freely and without interference.

Oh, let me be
Christine is emphasizing her desire to be left alone and allowed to pursue her own goals and dreams.

Let me be
This refrain serves as a final plea for independence and freedom in Christine's life.
