This song seems to be about having fallen out of a relationship (possibly a betrayal). The overall message is to live for yourself–or at least be able to love yourself. Find yourself. Learn who you are.
Let the story unfold what you know when your plan doesn't land and it falls like dominos
Believed a man selling love with a gun in his hand - and now you're on your own
Remember when he said "yeah, I'm here for you”
Evaporated like a siren to the scene of what you thought W.as. True
You can't catch a star as fast as it falls
When it burns and fades all you're left with is scars
And who you, who you are
Do you know who you are?
Has your story been told in 140 characters or less has the stress taken a toll
Timelines falling down til you don't hear a sound
Then - who do you know?
Look in the mirror at yourself. Where did you go?
There's not a filter in the world that makes your inside. Look. Beautiful
You can't catch a star as fast as it falls
When it burns and fades all you're left with is scars
And who you, who you are
Who you, who you are
When it’s all said and done and they've had all their fun
You look around and say, “where did they go now?”
Everyone grows at the speed of their soul and then a fire is inside, ready to roll now
Do you know who you are?
Let me tell you something
And the story unfolds now you know that a seed doesn't come from the ground 'til the pressure grows
Did what you thought what you needed for love - so two dimensional
Paper plane fold it up. And let it go
Got a life - only one - dedicate it to the love. For. Yourself
You can't catch a star as fast as it falls
When it burns and fades all you're left with is scars
And who you, who you are
Do you know who you are?
Who you, who you are
Who you, who you are
Who you, who you are
