This is a great song, and I think its about how some ppl spend there whole life trying to impress the next person and you can't win that one, so they've ruined everything good with the ppl who don't need to be impressed by them (real friends, fam, etc.) and the fact that no one can be fine with what they got.

well the name 'cosmopolitan' gives you a fair idea doesn't it?? the lines "you're not pretty enough you're not skinny enough you're not healthy enough" are sposed to be the main theme behind that dreaded magazines articles.

the whole album is made up of anthems sounds mature yet full of life and just flows. just love this album. just a point indie rock roll you do realise its not just girls that have insecurities and im sick of people saying its a girls problem a friend of mine is very insecure about himself and it doesnt really help when hes told its a girls problem. its a problem for everyone that has severe insecurities dont discount people just because the dont always talk about it as freely

you know what, monkeysuncle? that's what i hear, too. every lyrics search i do turns it up "you're not dreaming too much," though. i'm a little torn... okay, i did find one supporting site: http://www.wowlyrics.com/read.php?wow=1751298

I also definitely hear "daydreaming," not "not dreaming." Makes more sense too..

Just a song about hating everyone perhaps? About hating everyone for not letting you fit in, not letting you be part of them? and yeah, good point big_scary. I know plenty of insecure guys. No, they're not emo either.

this is just the perfect teenage anthem... well it's my anthem atm! it's all about insecurities & wondering what the point in living is if all you do is worry about who you are. & the guitar is fab!! :) get ready for nine black alps to become legends. (i saw them live too!! so ner)

I believe this song is about how magazines such as cosmopoitan cause young women to try to keep up an unrealistic media's sense of beauty, focusing on their flaws, not on their true beauty, such as their personality. In this sense many girls turn toward self destructive practices such as anorexia. i figured this in the lines "you're not pretty enough you're not skinny enough you're not healthy enough" "you're not burning enough of your body to be loved"

Aye, that's right. Sam said in an interview the inspiration for the song was by reading Cosmopolitan while at his mum's. Bless.

Lol its about someone who's fed up of everyone trying to be the most shocking person, playing up their life stories for attention. It's like, you can't shock me, I don't care.

i think it's talking about how teenagers are all insecure and how everyone is fine. but some people get too worked up about it. it also says"well you spend the night I'll take my life we'll close our eyes we'll be dead by sunrise" which means he'll take his life and cut it off. he will commit suicide. hopefully everyone doesn't feel this much pain.
