Irreplaceable
Madilyn Paige Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you, see me, over here
Should I just disappear?
I tried to fit in next to you
Can you, see me, over here
Should I just disappear?
I tried to fit in next to you
Guess I wasn't clear
Or maybe I'm just not good enough

Feel so alone here
Can't even be myself
Tryin' to fit in
Left all I am on the shelf
Do I belong here?
Or should I just stop trying
To be some other girl

When I fight
I'm all alone
Gotta tell myself
I'm irreplaceable
Bend it back
Quit tryin' to be someone else
I tell myself
I'm irreplaceable

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Somehow I find a way
It's never easy
Why is it so hard?
All I've ever wanted
is to be like them
I don't understand
Why I am like who I am

When I fight
I'm all alone
Gotta tell myself
I'm irreplaceable
Bend it back
Quit tryin' to be someone else
I tell myself
I'm irreplaceable

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

I've got to keep my head up
Be the girl I meant to be
I may not be like them but
That's okay, I can only be me!

When I fight
I'm all alone
Gotta tell myself
I'm irreplaceable
Bend it back
Quit tryin' to be someone else

I tell myself
I'm irreplaceable

Overall Meaning

Madilyn Paige's song "Irreplaceable" is a powerful and emotional track that speaks to the feelings of many young people who struggle to fit in socially. The song opens with a series of questions: "Can you see me over here? Should I just disappear?" These rhetorical questions indicate a sense of insecurity and self-doubt. The singer has attempted to blend in with others, but she feels misunderstood and ignored. She wonders if she is simply not good enough to be accepted by her peers.

The song goes on to describe the isolation and loneliness the singer experiences when trying to fit in with others. She feels like she has to hide her true self in order to be accepted and wonders if she truly belongs in this social group. However, she eventually realizes that trying to be someone else is not authentic and ultimately futile. She decides to embrace her true self and find her own sense of worth.

Overall, "Irreplaceable" is an empowering song that encourages listeners to be themselves, no matter what others may think. It is a message that is especially important for young people who are navigating the often-treacherous waters of social acceptance.

+Madilyn Paige Well Madilyn while I'm at school at school I just act like a different girl to get friends I just want to be myself but it's hard for me. So when I listened to this I said in my mind I am who I am and it was meant to be.

Thank you Madilyn for making/performing this song. When I am bullied at school I sing it quietly under my breath and it helps me not to cry and let them walk all over me.
Thank You :) Please make it available on Spotify!

I saw you sing this song live about a year ago. Still rests with me. It has been helping me through recovery from my eating disorder. I am glad that the world has singers like you to inspire and help so many people.

Hello(:
I love this song. Very touching and I know a lot of girls and boys can relate. I was down at the Time Out for Women today, and I don't know if you remember me, but I'm Jessica and I told you that are very inspirational. Then my friend Alexa told you I was on iTunes or something like that haha. But I just wanted to say that your voice is angelic and to see that you came from having stage fright 3 years ago to singing in front of millions on television is remarkable. You are flawless and like you said, irreplaceable. Your songs are beautiful and very touching. Thank you for taking the time to sing today in Sacramento.

I loved Time Out for Women. My sisters have gone to a few but it was my first time :) I just looked this video up because I was listening to it on Pandora. This has been one of my favorite songs ever since I first heard it. It's so amazing and inspiring. @o_ally_o I agree <3

I love the video, your voice, and just the thought of everything here. The music video has so much meaning to it unlike so many other songs and videos these days. And the lyrics in general, so many people relate to this. 10/10 in my book.

Most songs are about love and breakups, but this song isn't. It's different. If you get bullied like I do, this song helps a lot. I'm short, and I've been called a migit, and other names. People tell me I don't belong, but this song helps a lot. Thank you, Madilyn.❤️❤️

Can’t stop listening to this. People keep telling me I’m not worth anything, and sometimes I just listen to this over and over. I’m sick of fighting my fights alone. I just wish everyone could realize what they’re doing can cause.

savannah tracy

yeah, I feel that way too. everyone has struggles. I try to think of them as kind of a person. they will try to bring you down, but you gotta be brave and fight it. You gotta keep your head up and it will end up being ok. everyone is equally important, unique, and special. don't listen to the people who bring you down, they might be having struggles and are taking it out on everyone else, so be nice to them even if they aren't doing the same to you, it could help them. But don't let those words float around in your mind. You will get through it!!! just be strong <3

#Irreplaceable this song gives my strength to continue on with life. I lost so many friends and boyfriends that my heart is not fixable anymore. This song helps me with my depression and reminds me that I can’t be replaced. So thank you so much.

Karyn Martin

So normally I like listening to music that to others seems really depressing. But I heard this song at the Face2Face and I had to bite back tears. This song was beautiful, motivational...and for some reason it still had the connection for me that those songs I normally listen to have. This song is pretty much a life line for me now that I have run into it. I just love her voice, and the lyrics are just something that strikes my heart every time I listen to it. Thank you SO MUCH Madilyn Paige, and I cannot wait to see what is next for you and your career. <3 <3
