Dismantled
Surviving the Strips: Embracing Resilience in 'Dismantled'
Lyrics
I'm skin on bone
I feel fragile and vulnerable, reduced to my bare essence.
You like to watch to watch me fading
You enjoy observing my decline or deterioration.
Still holding on
Despite the difficulties, I'm still holding on.
Won't tell you how hate it
I won't disclose how much I despise the situation.
Oh, just one thing left to do
There's only one action left to take.
Got nothing left for you
I have nothing left to offer or provide for you.
But I will make it through
Despite the challenges, I will endure and persevere.
Take my heart, go ahead and strip me for parts
Feel free to take my emotions, break me down.
Pieces have gone missing, no survival instinct
Parts of me are lost, and my survival instincts are failing.
It’s my life, let you use it up one more time
You're using up my life without consideration.
Leaving me in shambles, I'll survive dismantled
Despite the destruction, I will endure and survive.
Gone as a ghost
I am emotionally absent, like a ghost.
My suffering is wasted
My suffering is in vain or without purpose.
I stay composed
Externally, I remain composed, but internally, I am furious.
But underneath I'm raging
Beneath the surface, I am filled with anger.
I send my regrets and you can keep the resentment
I express remorse, and you can keep your resentment.
I will never forget you now that I’ve learned my lesson
I will never forget the lessons learned from the experience.
Spend the rest of my lifetime trying to unlearn your lies
I will spend a lifetime trying to unlearn the deception.
Only one of us is built to survive
Only one of us is equipped to survive the challenges.
And if you should ask for my dying breath
If you ask for my last breath, I won't know how to refuse.
Wouldn't know how to say no
Even in my weakest moment, I may be unable to reject your request.
Take my heart, go ahead and strip me for parts
Feel free to take my emotions, break me down.
Leaving me in shambles, I'll survive dismantled
Despite the destruction, I will endure and survive.
