Bodily
Breaking Boundaries: Unveiling the Depths of Emotional Turmoil
Lyrics
You broke me bodily
You caused me significant harm physically or emotionally.
The heart ain't the half of it
The emotional pain goes beyond just heartbreak.
And I'll never learn to laugh at it
Despite the difficulty, finding humor in the situation is challenging.
In my good natured way
I am generally good-natured, but the situation has affected me.
In fact I'm laughing less in general
I am laughing less in life overall.
But I learned a lot at my own funeral
Experiencing and learning from my own metaphorical "funeral."
And I knew you'd be the death of me
I knew that you would be the cause of my downfall.
So I guess that's the price I pay
Accepting the consequences, acknowledging it as a price I must pay.
I'm trying to make new memories
Attempting to create new positive memories.
In cities where we fell in love
Revisiting places where our love once flourished.
My head just barely above
Struggling to stay afloat in challenging emotional circumstances.
The darkest water I've ever known
Feeling immersed in profound emotional darkness.
You had me in that cage
Being confined or controlled by you.
You had me jumpin through those hoops for you
Engaging in efforts and challenges solely for your sake.
Still, I think I'd stoop for you
Despite difficulties, still willing to lower my standards for you.
Stoop for your eyes alone
Willing to lower myself for the sake of your attention.
From that bomb shell moon in yet another lovely dress
Appreciating the beauty in different aspects of life, even after the emotional impact.
To the deep mahogany sheen of a roach
Finding value in unexpected places, comparing it to the beauty of a roach.
I am trying to take an appreciative approach
Trying to approach life positively despite the challenges you left behind.
To life in your wake
Navigating life in the aftermath of our relationship.
I focus on the quiet now
Focusing on the calm and serene aspects of life.
And occasionally I'll fall asleep somehow
Occasionally finding peace and rest, even in difficult circumstances.
And emptiness has its solace
Finding comfort in the emptiness, as there is nothing more to lose.
In that there's nothing left to take
Recognizing solace in the absence of things to be taken away.
