Discover the story of the song > As It Seems – Lily Kershaw

The protagonist of the song is reflecting on her past experiences and realizing that she knew things she didn't want to know and went places she didn't want to go. She chose a different path and wants her stories to be remembered after she's gone. The chorus reminds us that in life, we must find something to live for because when difficult times come, we'll end up going back to where we were before. Life is fragile and nothing is ever really as it seems. In the second verse, the protagonist lost her innocence when she allowed her partner to get close to her, but she felt alive because of the way he looked at her. She now realizes that she knows nothing at all, but there is a sense of release when she's falling. Overall, the song emphasizes the idea that life is uncertain and we must find something meaningful to hold onto.
