Lyric discussion by morij2 

I think this song has to do with performing. She's not jaded enough yet to be okay with showbiz criticism, she's alive and emotional, and she's afraid that if she stumbles or messes up, they'll "eat her alive". and i guess you could make it apply to other things, other than performing

@morij2 I Think this song is about surviving in a capitalist world. Nothing is ever certain except for the established rules, and no one can ever be certain in their position. Everything is about capital and every life is expendable. Confidence and self-worth can be earned up to a point, but neither are never guaranteed.
