Key Grammar Structures

  • I can be whoever I want to be.

    ➔ Noun clauses with 'whoever'

    ➔ Use ''whoever'' to refer to any person who; it functions as the object of the verb.

  • I wish I could be like other people.

    ➔ Wish + past subjunctive (hypothetical)

    ➔ Use ''could be'' (past form) to express a desire for a situation that is currently not true.

  • Everything begins with consciousness.

    ➔ Subject-verb agreement (singular)

    ➔ Indefinite pronouns like ''Everything'' always take a singular verb form.

  • It's good for the soul to let down your hair.

    ➔ Introductory 'It' + infinitive structure

    ➔ Use ''It'' as a dummy subject to introduce an action (''to let down'') at the end of the sentence.

  • Don't try to shut me up.

    ➔ Negative imperative

    ➔ Use ''Don't'' + base verb to give a negative command or prohibition.

  • I know where the bodies are buried.

    ➔ Embedded question (noun clause)

    ➔ In a noun clause, the word order is subject + verb (''the bodies are buried''), not a question format.

  • You feel you have the power to hurt me.

    ➔ Reduced relative clause (omitted 'that')

    ➔ The conjunction ''that'' can be omitted after verbs like ''feel'' or ''think''.

  • I don't want to meet me on the dance floor.

    ➔ Reflexive pronoun usage

    ➔ Use a reflexive pronoun (''myself'' - though here used as 'me' for lyrics/stylistic choice) when the object is the same as the subject.
