Skin and Bones
Beyond Skin and Bones: Unveiling the Ghost Within
Lyrics
I'm breaking up
I am going through a breakup.
I've been beaten down, run around
I have faced hardships and mistreatment, feeling constantly manipulated.
Know that I've had enough of the spotlight oh
I've reached a point where I can no longer tolerate the attention and scrutiny of the spotlight.
You're just a ghost
The person addressed is like a distant presence, not fully present.
Been on a killing spree, haunting me, eternally
The person has caused harm, emotionally or otherwise, persistently and without end.
You're not my judge - my jury
The addressed person doesn't have the authority to judge or control the speaker anymore.
You can't walk right through me anymore
The speaker is no longer easily influenced or affected by the person.
My skin and bones, my skin and bones
The physical and emotional aspects of the speaker are mentioned, emphasizing vulnerability.
Are not what I am it's all you've known
The speaker's identity is not solely defined by external appearances.
My skin and bones, my skin and bones
Repetition of the idea that the speaker is more than their physical self.
Stuck in between two prisons, where do I call home?
Feeling trapped between conflicting emotions or situations, questioning where one truly belongs.
It's all you know, deep down below
The familiarity with the person's expectations is deeply ingrained.
So tell me where do I call home?
Seeking clarity on where the speaker belongs or where their true home is.
My skin and bones, my skin and bones
Reiteration of the speaker's vulnerability, emphasizing the search for a sense of belonging.
Where do I call home?
Pose of a question regarding the elusive concept of 'home.'
I think you know
Challenging the addressed person's awareness of the speaker's internal struggles.
If you're going down,
If the addressed person is facing a downfall,
Stealing crowns,
Engaging in deceptive actions, trying to gain control or superiority.
Bound to be overthrown
Destined to be overthrown or defeated due to their unethical actions.
You'll reap what you sow
Consequences will catch up to the addressed person based on their actions.
I'm on a bull ride, thrown off by your lies
Metaphorical expression of being thrown off course by lies or deceit.
Black tides swallow me alive
Feeling overwhelmed by negative emotions, represented by 'black tides.'
Your colors show I'm in control
The speaker asserts control, revealing their strength and resilience.
The raptured truth is drowned in yesterday
Truth has been overshadowed by past events or experiences.
And every ounce of hate has slowly drained away
The speaker is letting go of hate, suggesting a transformative process.
My skin and bones, my skin and bones
Repetition emphasizing vulnerability, questioning where the speaker belongs.
Stuck in between two prisons
Reiterating the feeling of being caught between conflicting situations.
Where do I call home?
Persistently questioning where the speaker truly belongs.
It's all you know my skin and bones
Reiteration of the person's limited understanding of the speaker's true self.
So tell me where do I call home?
Seeking answers about where the speaker truly belongs or where their home is.
It's all you know deep down below
The deep-seated understanding of the person's expectations persists.
