Light Me Up Lyrics
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
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
Is what I'm saying seem to haunt you?
well, that's okay
Cause what I'm saying 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
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
Light me up when I'm down
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
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
Light me up when I'm down
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
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
well, that's okay
Cause what I'm saying 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
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
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
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?

(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', 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,)

(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.)
I'm probably wrong, but I hear "There's plenty of white to go around" which to me makes this about smoking crack cocaine.
Her boyfriend (drug-dealer) seems to be someone she can't relate to except through drugs.
Hey, light me up when I'm down.
'White' is definitely a coke reference.
"Light me up when I'm down" is pretty straight forward. 'Lit up' = high on coke. It makes her feel better.
This tune is all about her love for partying and be unwilling to change at this moment in time. She's basically saying, "Yeah, I party. I'm gonna change eventually, but right now I couldn't care less. So don't hassle me about it."
I LOVE THIS SONG <3 It's my favorite along with You, Since your gone and Make me wanna die.
Oh though it's about Taylor and the press and all the haters. It can also be about bullying. The chours and bridge explain that good.
"Do You have a light? Can you make me feel alright? There's plenty of white to go around Do you think its right when you hit me to the ground? Well, light me up when I'm down"
"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" -This really gets me. It may be smoking or drugs in her situation."Cause I can take it all without you, and i'm okay". But it can also be what she is going through.
