Autopsy
Beyond Flesh: Unveiling the Deeper Essence in Colton Dixon's 'Autopsy'
Lyrics
Tear apart, my heart and soul
Tearing apart the speaker's heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
Request to take everything, every aspect
But I am more than skin and bones
Asserting that the speaker is more than just physical attributes
I am
Repetition of the speaker's identity
I am more
Reiteration of being more than physical
Looking inside
Reflecting on oneself
Through a different lense
Examining life from a different perspective
Seeing my life
Observing one's life
But missing the point of it
Not fully grasping the essence of life
We're all one heart beat from heaven
Highlighting the proximity to heavenly existence
We're all one heart beat from heaven
Repetition emphasizing the closeness to heaven
So tear apart, my heart and soul
Repeating the request to tear apart heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
Reiterating the plea to take everything
But I am more than skin and bones
Emphasizing the speaker's complexity beyond the physical
I am
Repetition of the speaker's identity
I am more
Reiteration of being more than physical
Life, it takes your breath away
Life's profound impact, taking breath away
And doesn't give it back
Life not returning breath, even when requested
Even if you ask
Life's indifference to pleas
Even if you plead
Even pleading is ineffective
Get down on your knees
Symbolic act of submission or desperation
It's out of your control
Highlighting lack of control over life
Where you gonna go?
Pondering the options in the face of life's challenges
Life, it takes your breath away
Reiteration of life's breath-taking nature
And doesn't give it back
Reiterating life's reluctance to return breath
Even if you ask
Reiteration of life's indifference to requests
So tear apart, my heart and soul
Repeating the plea to tear apart heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
Reiterating the request to take everything
But I am more than skin and bones
Emphasizing the speaker's complexity beyond the physical
I am
Repetition of the speaker's identity
I am more
Reiteration of being more than physical
Tear apart, my heart and soul
Repeating the plea to tear apart heart and soul
My every inch, take it all
Reiterating the request to take everything
But I am more than skin and bones
Emphasizing the speaker's complexity beyond the physical
I am
Repetition of the speaker's identity
I am more
Reiteration of being more than physical
