Chandelier
Renacer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn
I push it down, push it down

I'm the one "for a good time call"
Phone's blowin' up, they're ringin' my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

Throw em back, till I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

And I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame

1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 drink

Throw em back till I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier

And I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes




Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight

Overall Meaning

The song "Chandelier" by Renacer talks about the experiences of a party girl who finds herself with a life that's spiraling out of control. The opening lines clearly indicate that the singer is trying to suppress her emotions and distract herself by partying. She admits that she can't feel anything and needs to learn how to handle her emotions. However, despite her efforts to push her emotions down, the constant ringing of her phone and doorbell show that she is in high demand because of her popularity.


The chorus of the song revolves around the metaphor of the chandelier. As the song builds, the metaphor takes shape and the singer wants to 'swing from the chandelier' to experience the feeling of freedom and weightlessness. The chandelier is also symbolic of the party lifestyle that the singer is addicted to because she wants to live like there's no tomorrow. The repetition of the words '1, 2,3 drink, throw 'em back till I lose count' shows how the singer is losing control of her drinking and is indulging herself until she can't feel anymore.


In summary, Renacer's "Chandelier" is a powerful representation of the struggles faced by a party girl who aspires to experience life to the fullest. The lyrics address the need to suppress emotions due to fear of inability to handle them, a struggle faced by many. It highlights how life can quickly spiral out of control if one is not careful and the importance of being aware of one's actions and the consequences that follow.
