Beautiful People
Infinitefreefall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something about you just says you won't get close to me
And I start to feel claustrophobic from everyone in my sight
It's like every single perfect person is in this city tonight
All these beautiful people under these flashing lights
I swear I'll be one of them on one of these nights
All these beautiful people under these flashing lights
Stay alive 'til the weekend comes
Forget your name and fall in love
I want to be just like you
I want to be just like you
Speed through the best years of your life
Die in a blaze of glory at 25
I want to be just like you
I want to be just like you
Stay alive 'til the weekend comes
Forget your name and fall in love
I want to be just like you
I want to be just like you
Speed through the best years of your life
Die in a blaze of glory at 25
I want to be just like you
I want to be just like you
Maybe I'm just being too hard on myself
Maybe if I try to be somebody else
Maybe I could use some help
All these beautiful people under these flashing lights
I swear I'll be one of them on one of these nights
All these beautiful people under these flashing lights
I swear I'll be one of them on one of these nights
The lyrics of Infinitefreefall's song "Beautiful People" explore the desire to fit in with the social expectations of society. The singer is surrounded by beautiful people in a city, but despite being only five steps away from them, they feel isolated and claustrophobic. The lyrics convey a sense of loneliness and longing for acceptance, as the singer dreams of one day becoming one of the beautiful people.
The chorus repeats the desire to be just like the beautiful people, to stay alive until the weekend comes and forget their name and fall in love. The lyrics convey a sense of urgency, as if time is running out and the singer needs to achieve this ideal before it's too late. The second verse takes this further, with the desire to "speed through the best years of your life" and "die in a blaze of glory at 25". The lyrics suggest that the singer feels they are missing out on something by not being part of the beautiful people crowd, and that their life is somehow incomplete without this experience.
The final verse suggests that the singer is aware that they are being too hard on themselves, and perhaps need help to overcome their insecurities. The repetition of the chorus gives a sense of determination, as if the singer is willing themselves to become one of the beautiful people.

This is greatness budding beneath the weight of the soil. Blockchain is about to change the music industry and talents like this band will be able to prosper without selling out to centralized record companies. Your artistry deserves massive recognition. This band is Tesla stock for $50. I write music. This is genius. This comment will age so well.
