The Pretty Reckless – Light Me Up Lyrics 15 years ago
Is what I'm wearing seem to shock you?
Well, that's okay
Cause what I'm thinking about you is not okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways
But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me


(In my opinion, she's saying that people talk about how 'shocked'they are, because of what she wears *suspenders, short dresses, lingere, etc...* and she is thinking stuff about these people as well, but it's not nice stuff, and she knows it. So she has tried to change the way she is but she can't because that's not who she really is.)

You have a light
Can you make me feel alright?
There's plenty of light to go around
Do you think its right when you hit me to the ground?
Well, light me up when I'm down

('You have a light', bassicaly you have the power to make her feel alright, he can do the same for anyone and she asks him if he thinks its right to try and bring her down, and if not, then make her feel alright because he can,)


Is what I'm taking seem to bother you?
Well, that's okay
Cause I can't take it all without you, and I'm okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways
But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me

(Does her smoking cigarets bother people?! Yes it does and she doesnt care.. because she's got 'someone beside her and she's okay then, she tries to change but she really just wants to be herself.)
