Kaia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics to Kaia's song "Statue" showcases the singer's feeling of being stuck in one place while others around her seem to be moving on with their lives. She refers to herself as a statue, standing still while others are dancing around her like they are sped up. This relates to the feeling of being stuck in the past, where things moved too fast, and she is still trying to catch up.
The line "I am still for you" suggests that the singer's situation may be due to a significant other. She is still waiting for them to come back, despite the fact that they may have moved on. The singer questions how many people around her think that they are the one for her significant other, implying that others may be trying to take her place.
The final lines "you and me we would be hundreds thousands of things" display the singer's hope that she and her significant other could have been so much more. Despite the pain she is feeling, the singer remains hopeful that there may still be a future for the two of them.

I'm standing statue they are dancing around me like they're sped up
I feel immobile like a statue while people around me are rushing and bustling about their lives.
i'm drugged up too
My current state of mind is numb and apathetic, just like a person under the influence of drugs.
I am still for you
Despite feeling stuck and lifeless, I remain calm and stationary solely for the sake of the person I care for.
I wonder how many of them think that they're the one for you
I contemplate how many people out there may think they're the perfect fit for you, even though they don't understand the depth of our connection.
I don't think i'm the one
I doubt that I am the one person who could stand by your side through anything and everything.
you and me we would be hundreds thousands of things
Despite the doubts I have, I know that if we were together, we could experience an abundance of love, growth, and possibilities.
