Bulletproof
Yearning for Invincibility: Suzie Brown's "Bulletproof" Unveils Vulnerability
Lyrics
Thin skin
Expressing vulnerability with sensitive emotions.
Porous heart
Having a heart that easily absorbs emotions or experiences.
I'm surprised I've even gotten this far
Surprised at personal resilience and ability to endure.
Wounded
Emotionally hurt or damaged.
Torn apart
Feeling shattered or deeply wounded.
Underneath my clothes, I'm covered in scars
Carrying emotional scars beneath the surface.
Here I am
Presenting oneself despite emotional pain.
Spittin and bleeding
Expressing emotional turmoil and physical distress.
Where's my suit of armor when I need it
Yearning for protection or emotional armor.
I wish I was bulletproof
Expressing a desire for invulnerability.
I wish I was bulletproof
Reiterating the longing to be impervious.
I wish I didn't care but I do
Acknowledging the difficulty of not caring about emotional challenges.
I wish I was bulletproof
Repeating the desire to be impervious.
Rooted
Feeling grounded and stable emotionally.
Stabilized
Being secure and firm in emotional resilience.
Some people seem so good at letting it slide
Observing others who handle challenges with ease.
Cool it
Advocating for calmness and composure.
Don't think twice
Suggesting not to overthink or hesitate.
Don't know how I'll ever take that advice
Uncertain about following advice due to personal struggles.
What's it like to be like you
Curiosity about the experience of someone emotionally resilient.
Is it easy as it seems
Questioning the ease of being emotionally resilient.
Skin so thick you can't break through
Describing an impenetrable emotional barrier.
Even with a laser beam
Metaphorically referencing an impenetrable defense.
But at night are you licking your wounds
Raising the question of whether resilience comes at a cost.
Wishing you were
Expressing a longing for emotional strength.
