This song was first teased on TikTok by girl in red on the 4th of January 2023. Further lyrics were teased on TikTok on January 19th. In a second TikTok she explains the song is about being told you’re too much when being genuinely happy and excited, and how that affected her.
[Verse 1]
Don't you just love
To kill the light in my eyes
To make me low when I’m high
Oh-woah, oh (It's just a, it's just a)
"It’s just a joke"
You always say afterwards
Still my feelings get hurt
Oh-woah, oh
[Chorus]
So please
Don't say I'm too much
That I'm over the top
You don't understand me
We're so different at heart
You're on Earth, I'm on Mars, ah-ah
[Verse 2]
All I ever wanted was your love
I toned myself down for you
Volume one, almost mute
I’ll never ignite
You always found a way to bring me down
You trivialised everything
From my tears to my grins
Oh-woah, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like you're scared of anything real
For a second I thought you were sincere (What?)
But you’ve been dragging me down all of these years
With your coldness, and I don't care
[Chorus]
So please
Don't say I'm too much
That I’m over the top
You don't understand me
Yeah, we're so different at heart
You're on Earth, I'm on Mars, oh-oh
[Bridge]
You go through life like you're on, on a—
You go through life like you're on a fucking runway
Dracula shoulders, they be blockin' all my sunrays
This throwin' shade is so passé
Forever is unlikely for us
Opposites attract, odds are more like Blackjack
House always wins, so I'm taking all my love back
With you, I lose either way
[Pre-Chorus]
You think I'm weird when I get too excited
I think it's weird how you're so empty-minded (What?)
Yeah, you've been dragging me down all of these years
With your coolness, and I don't care
[Chorus]
So please
Don't say I'm too much
That I'm over the top
You don't understand me
Yeah, we're so different at heart
You're on Earth, I'm on Mars
But I still keep tryin'

I’ve always been told I’m too much. Throughout my whole childhood and in my adult years. Getting shut down when I’m at my happiest or most excited made me feel self-conscious, alienated, and weird. It wasn’t until I encountered the same feeling in my relationships, that I realized how much it actual...
Jeg liker den veldig godt. Jeg tror jeg alltid har vært litt mye, ja. Men så tror jeg kanskje når jeg ble litt eldre at sånn brikkene begynte å falle litt på plass, jeg begynte litt å finne min plass i verden, men så tror jeg, jeg tror ikke man hele tiden blir på den plassen man trodde man hadde fun...
