| Marina and the Diamonds – Teen Idle Lyrics

I think that this song is perfect. I believe that it's about someone who spent their teen years as a cynical, negative, person who tried to make herself appear "perfect". But in reality, she wishes that she was like everyone else. She wishes she actually didn't care, instead of just pretending she didn't. She's reflecting on her teenage years, saying she wasted them on trying to be so different from the mainstream, when in reality, she really wanted to have fun and be like them. |

I believe this is about a person struggling with their identity. They portray themselves as fully in control. They're very independent, "don't do love, don't do friends" and almost come off as robotic. But they're not truly like that and they're starting to come to terms with the fact that they're wasting their life pretending to be perfect. |
