Yes, my brain doth think of such ingenious innovations

I have thought of an ingenious way to get myself into the mindset of the girl in the song. One morning not long ago a thought suddenly came to me: I will take "Suddenly I see", and I will replaced all the "she" (s) in the song with "me"(s)...! I can feel your face drop.

"My face is a map of the world is a map of the world, and I'm a beautiful girl I'm a beautiful girl, and everything around me is a silver pool of light...", you get the gist. And before you think I've reached new depths of delusion, don't knock it until you have tried it! Or even if the thought of trying it makes you laugh, and trust me it makes me Laugh Out Loud, that in itself feels good. It's laughable, but I'm still proud I came up with such a simple invention. Create with impact, one should say.

The only flaw in my ingenious plan, if I'm being humble, is how to incorporate "me" into the song without lying at least a little bit. The fact is that the lyrical part that is "dadada... I'm taller than most, looking at me", just doesn't chime with my 5'4 stature, and let's be honest I'm not exactly gona use "I'm shorter than most", or even "I'm the same size as most" (you need to sing these in your head to really feel what I mean). That last one has an extra word or two in it anyway to say the least. So... you win some, you lose some.
