Look At Me
Tejas Ramakrishna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you do the little things like noticing the moles on his face
Is it the "yeah, I'm into you smile,"
Or his super fancy ride
Or the way he puts his arm around his girls all so shy
You say that you're in love
But I think I'm not the one
And I really really really really wish you would
Look at me, pretty girl, with those eyes
'Cause I'm watching you watching him and heading for a certain demise
You think I'm here looking at the girl by his side
But you're wrong babe I'm just trying to find the thing that you like
I know I'm wrong and you're always right
So please don't make a fuss 'cause this ain't worth a drink and a fight
What's the thing with you and good looks
Just like this song and this hook
I'm the one who took the bait and you're the little crook
Get your face out of that book
You're the queen and I'm a rook
And I really really really really wish you would
Look at me, silly girl, with those eyes
'Cause I'm losing my sleep and my sanity over time
Don't sear your lips talking rock-stars to me
Don't waste your breath singing their songs to me
Look at me, pretty girl, with those eyes
'Cause I'm watching you watching him and heading for a certain demise
Look at me, silly girl, with those eyes
'Cause I'm losing my sleep and my sanity over time

The singer acknowledges the little things that the person they desire notices about the other person, such as the moles on their face or their fancy ride. They contemplate whether it's the charm of the other person's smile or the way they put their arm around their significant other that attracts their affection. However, the singer laments that despite claiming to be in love with them, they feel like they're not the chosen one.
The chorus emphasizes the singer's plea for attention and recognition. They implore the person to look at them instead, as they watch them gaze at the person they desire. The lyrics convey a sense of impending doom, as the singer feels their sanity slipping away while being consumed by their unrequited love.
