5 minutes till the curtain goes up and how I hate myself for thinking of you!
So in the past, but the memory lasts of how you hated everything that I'd do!
You never payed attention to dreams I'd mention. You'd just go out your way to simply ignore!
You say I'm never gonna make it. Bring your feet back down to the floor!
But no more!
Now my band is playin' I hear ya sayin'
Ain't that the girl that I used to know? My fans are screamin'
No I'm not dreamin'
Now I don't search for your face in my sold out crowd anymore.
Whoaa! Whoah yeah!
Yeah, that's my song on the radio! Now that I'm flyin' you'll be the one that's saying, oh! Ain't that the girl that I used to know?
So count it off, yeah I'm ready to rockan there's no place on earth that I'd rather be!
Center stage and the band starts to play, and the entire world is feeling the heat!
But I don't feel that pressure! It's so familiar! I ran this scene a million times in my head! I took the pain you caused me and I put it in a song instead! Instead!
Now my band is playin' I hear ya sayin'
Ain't that the girl that I used to know? My fans are screamin'
No I'm not dreamin'
Now I don't search for your face in my sold out crowd anymore.
Whoaa! Whoah yeah!
Yeah, that's my song on the radio! Now that I'm flyin' you'll be the one that's saying, oh! Ain't that the girl that I used to know?
You want your name on the backstage listing! You really think I would? You made me laugh, whatcha' thinkin' about? Security will just show you the way out! Whoa oh!
Girl that I used to know! My fans are screamin'
No I'm not dreamin'
Now I don't search for your face in my sold out crowd anymore.
Whoaa! Whoah yeah!
Yeah, that's my song on the radio! Now that I'm flyin' you'll be the one that's saying, oh!
Ain't that the girl I used to know?
Now my band is playin' I hear ya sayin'
Ain't that the girl that I used to know? My fans are screamin'
No I'm not dreamin'
Now I don't search for your face in my sold out crowd anymore.
Whoaa! Whoah yeah!
Yeah, that's my song on the radio! Now that I'm flyin' you'll be the one that's saying, oh! Ain't that the girl that I used to know?
I think this song is about a girl who likes a boy who ignores her. I think that she is trying to say that you shouldn't worry about that one person who puts you down and instead should adore the millions that are saying yes and not that one or two that say no.
