Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't worry about me
Its not attention that I want from you
I need you to trust who I'm gonna be
And in everything I'm going to do
'Cause I'm not afraid
Of what I don't know
What is for sure is I'm gonna to go
I'm gonna to live and I'm going to learn
And I know there will be mistakes that I will make
But I know they're not worse than chances I don't take, take
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
When the door shuts
Its shuts in front of me
A new person that I have become
I follow my heart to my destiny
But living in fear and sorrow is done
There will be no more feeling that I'm all alone
I will surround myself with things that help me grow, grow
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
Right before your eyes
Right before your eyes
The lyrics of "Right Before Your Eyes" by Hoobastank convey a message of personal growth and transformation. The singer of the song is asking the person listening not to worry about them when the door shuts, because it's not attention that they seek, but rather trust in the path they have chosen. They are not afraid of the unknown, and they are willing to make mistakes in order to learn and develop. The new person they have become is following their heart to their destiny, leaving behind fear and sorrow, and surrounding themselves with things that help them grow.
The song is about inner change and the courage required to pursue it. It is a declaration of independence, a plea for support without judgment or interference, and ultimately a message of hope. The lyrics are simple, but they pack a powerful emotional punch, and they resonate with anyone who has ever faced a major life decision or undergone a personal transformation.
