Shrink
Shrinking Heartache: Marielle Kraft's Journey to Liberation
Lyrics
I've been waking up with heartache
I wake up feeling emotionally distressed.
I'm sick of carrying you around
I'm tired of carrying the burden associated with you.
Wish I was waking up with heartspace
Desire to wake up with a more positive emotional state.
But I'm claustrophobic
Feeling confined or restricted.
Haunted, broken and I
Experiencing haunting emotions and feeling shattered.
Think I've been tying my own self down
Realization of self-imposed limitations.
Can't make it disappear
Unable to make the pain vanish.
But I'll make it smaller 'til it isn't here
Attempting to minimize the emotional pain.
I'm gonna open up my window
Expressing a desire to change the current situation.
Say it 'til I let go
Repeating affirmations to facilitate emotional release.
Anything to make this heartbreak shrink
Willing to do anything to alleviate heartbreak.
Move out of your city
Consideration of physically moving away from a shared location.
Burn all of our memories
Symbolic act of removing shared memories.
Less of you means more of me
Emphasizing the importance of self-focus in healing.
So I'll do anything to make this heartbreak
Reiterating the commitment to reduce emotional pain.
Shrink
Repeating the desire to make heartbreak diminish.
Shrink
-There's so much room in this apartment
Highlighting the spaciousness of the current living environment.
You hated parties but I throw them now
Contrast between past and present social preferences.
You liked my hair when it was longer
Physical changes made to move away from the past self.
So I chopped it off and I got tattoos
Transformation into a different person post-relationship.
And I look nothing like the person I was with you
-I'm gonna open up my window
Reiterating the intention to change the current emotional state.
Say it 'til I let go
Continued affirmation for emotional release.
Anything to make this heartbreak shrink
Commitment to do whatever it takes to reduce heartbreak.
Move out of your city
Considering physical relocation for a fresh start.
Burn all of our memories
Symbolic act of burning shared memories.
Less of you means more of me
Emphasizing personal growth through separation.
So I'll do anything to make this heartbreak
Reiterating the commitment to minimize heartbreak.
Shrink
Repeating the desire to make heartbreak diminish.
Shrink

-I can't make it disappear
Acknowledging the inability to erase the pain entirely.
But I'll make it smaller 'til it isn't here
-I'm gonna open my windows
Expressing the intention to let others know about the pain.
Make sure everybody knows
Public declaration of emotional struggles.
I'm gonna open up my window
Reiterating the intention to release emotional burden.
Say it 'til I let go (I'm gonna let it go)
-Anything to make this heartbreak shrink
Willingness to do anything to reduce heartbreak.
Move out of your city
Considering physical relocation for emotional healing.
Burn all of our memories
Symbolic act of discarding shared memories.
Less of you means more of me
Emphasizing the importance of self in the healing process.
So I'll do anything to make this heartbreak shrink
Reiterating the commitment to minimize heartbreak.
Yeah I'll do anything to make this heartbreak
-Shrink
Final affirmation of the commitment to reduce heartbreak.
