What are these Mariah Carey lyrics talking about?
these are the lyrics to a song called Looking In from Mariah Carey’s 1995 album Daydream
You look at me and see the girl
Who lives inside the golden world
But don’t believe
That’s all there is to see
You’ll never know the real me
She smiles through a thousand tears
And harbours adolescent fears
She dreams of all
That she can never be
She wades in insecurity
And hides herself inside of me
Don’t say she takes it all for granted
I’m well aware of all I have
Don’t think that I am disenchanted
Please understand

Somebody outside looking in
Well, here I am for all of them to bleed
But they can’t take my heart from me
And they can’t bring me to my knees
They’ll never know the real me
Mariah has originally written this song talking about her former marriage with Tommy Motolla, who was a control freak over Mariah’s life. At that time, she was one of the biggest stars in music and she was known everywhere around the world, her album was selling damn good… everything a superstar could possibly want. She’s thankful for that by in the end, she knows that all these things won’t bring her peace of mind, something still is missing. Fame and sucess can’t erase your past scars.
