Tiny Bodyguard
Embracing Shadows: Superbloom's Tiny Bodyguard Unveiled
Lyrics
My tiny bodyguard
Expressing affection for a small protector or supporter.
She fills the emptiness into my arm
Describing how the person fills emotional voids by being close.
Her heart attacking all the pain
Highlighting the protective nature of the person's heart against pain.
I'm feeling swell
Feeling good or positive in general.
But I'm not well
Despite feeling good, acknowledging an underlying sense of unwellness.
I like to bend the light
Expressing a desire to distort reality or perception.
Refill to amplify his suicide
Suggesting a method to enhance self-destructive tendencies.
Discourse weighs heavy on my brain
Feeling burdened by heavy or serious conversations.
Light dynamite so I don't fight
Choosing to avoid conflict by diffusing it with humor or distraction.
I'll never try to breathe out slowly
Committing to not prolonging difficulties by exhaling slowly.
I'll never try to talk blindfolded
Committing to not speaking blindly or without awareness.
I reach for my soul
Searching for inner strength or identity.
It's covered in wool
Describing a protective layer or insulation around one's soul.
I've always been lucky
Expressing a history of good fortune or luck.
Trust me I'll be fine
Assuring others and oneself of the ability to overcome challenges.
Can I file away the real
Questioning the authenticity of reality and considering a more daring approach.
And dip my toe into the grave
Contemplating a venture into something risky or unknown.
Disarm these vultures in my head
Desiring to disarm or neutralize disturbing thoughts.
They counting down until they fed
Referring to intrusive thoughts as vultures counting down.
I'll never try to breathe out slowly
Reiterating the commitment to avoid prolonged breathing out.
I'll never try to talk blindfolded
Reiterating the commitment to avoid blindfolded communication.
I reach for my soul
Continuing the quest for inner strength or identity.
It's covered in wool
Reiterating the presence of protective layers around the soul.
I've always been lucky
Emphasizing a consistent history of good fortune or luck.
Trust me I'll be fine
Reassuring oneself and others about overcoming challenges.
I'll be fine
Repeated affirmation of being fine despite challenges.
I'll be fine
-I'll be fine
-I'll be fine
-You say I'll be here tomorrow
Being told there will be a future presence, but with a cost (borrowed dollar).
Another dollar borrowed
Highlighting a recurring need to borrow to cope with challenges.
To make it go away
Using external means (money) to make problems disappear temporarily.
You say I'll be here tomorrow
Reiterating the promise of a future presence, now involving a pill.
Another pill to swallow
Continuing the pattern of using substances to cope and make problems vanish.
To make it go away
Highlighting the desire to make challenges or pain go away.
