Lyrics

All of these lines across my face

All the experiences and challenges reflected in the lines on my face

Tell you the story of who I am

Expressing the essence of who I am through these lines

So many stories of where I've been

Numerous tales of my past and the places I've been

And how I got to where I am

Narrating the journey and the path that led me to my current state

But these stories don't mean anything

Despite the richness of these stories, they lose significance without someone to share them with

When you've got no one to tell them to, it's true

The emptiness of stories when there is no one to confide in

Yeah, I was made for you

Acknowledging a sense of purpose and connection with someone


I climbed across the mountaintops

Describing overcoming challenges, akin to climbing mountaintops

I swam all across the ocean blue

Conveying extensive efforts and journeys, like swimming across the ocean

I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules

Breaking societal norms and rules for the sake of love

And baby I broke them all for you

Highlighting significant sacrifices made for a loved one

Because even when I was flat broke

Even in financial struggles, feeling valuable because of the partner

You made me feel like a million bucks, it's true

Being uplifted and valued despite challenging circumstances

And I was made for you

Reiterating a sense of purpose and destiny with the partner


You see the smile that's on my mouth

A smiling facade concealing unspoken thoughts and emotions

It's hiding the words that won't come out

The struggle to articulate feelings and thoughts behind the smile

All of my friends they think that I'm blessed

External perceptions of being blessed, contrasting internal turmoil

But, they don't know my head is a mess

Admitting internal struggles and challenges within the mind

No, they don't know who I really am

Others not truly understanding the depth of personal experiences

And they don't know what I've been through like you do

Recognizing the unique understanding shared with a specific person

And I was made for you

Reaffirming a sense of purpose and connection with the mentioned person


All of these lines across my face

Repetition emphasizing the impact of life experiences on identity

Tell you a story of who I am

Reiterating the role of facial lines in narrating personal stories

So many stories of where I've been

Echoing the diversity of experiences and places in the past

And how I got to where I am

Reflecting on the journey and the factors leading to the current state

These stories don't mean anything

Emphasizing the significance of sharing stories with someone

When you've got no one to tell them to, it's true

Reiterating the emptiness of stories without a receptive audience

I was made for you

Affirming the sense of purpose and belonging with the mentioned person


You know it's true, I was made for you

Confidently stating the inherent truth of being made for the mentioned person
