Yes, the song is from the narrative point of the singer, expressing her anxieties, but the subject of the verb phrase "都不甘于平庸" (all unwilling to be mediocre) is not the singer, but 一幕幕的相逢 (the **encountering scenes** that came one after another)

* [一幕幕的相逢都不甘于平庸] = [所有的場景都不甘平凡]
* [Scenes of encountering are not willing to be mediocre] = [all the encounters are unwilling to be ordinary]
* the subject is not "**I**" (the anxious one) but "**the encounters**" (personification)

In other words, those encounters have powerfully impacted the narrator
