Indestructible
Unbreakable Resolve: Finding Strength Amid Life's Challenges
Lyrics
It seems every day that I wake up
Expressing a sense of repetition in waking up each day.
I find a new dent in my armour
Noticing new vulnerabilities or weaknesses in oneself.
Plot holes - a few stories untold
Referring to gaps or inconsistencies in personal narratives.
I'm indestructible - that much she knows
Asserting a perceived invincibility, known by someone else.
It seems every day that I wake up
Reiteration of the routine of waking up with a hint of monotony.
Try as I might I'm not much of a fight
Admitting a lack of inclination or ability to engage in conflict.
Like that guy in faces of debt
Referencing an individual facing financial struggles.
I blew up before I reached my target
Explaining a premature failure or explosion before achieving a goal.
My guts are in my hands now
Acknowledging vulnerability and being observed with pity.
And you're watching me with me pity
Emphasizing the internal struggle, with an external gaze of pity.
'Cos you don't see yourself in me
Highlighting a lack of self-recognition in the observer.
Until much long after I'm gone
Anticipating a delayed realization of the observer's own reflection in the speaker.
Blood on the streets will get washed away
Describing the temporary nature of societal disturbances.
By indifferent tides - wave after wave
Indicating the indifferent nature of time, erasing visible scars.
Then you'll see the skies as I see them
Encouraging a shared perspective of the skies between speaker and observer.
My bloody guts in my hands as I see them
Reiterating the visceral impact of personal struggles.
I said I want to be invincible
Expressing a desire for invincibility, possibly as a defense mechanism.
But I don't want to seem unkind
Balancing the desire for strength with a concern for kindness.
I know I can't escape my crooked shell
Acknowledging an inherent imperfection or personal flaw.
But I don't want to be exiled back to hell
Rejecting the idea of returning to a negative or painful past.
'Cos the years have made me kinder
Claiming personal growth and an increase in kindness over time.
Time has a way of wearing you down
Reflecting on the transformative impact of time.
Time you never had - time that wouldn't pass
Emphasizing the elusive nature of time, especially when faced with challenges.
Time that slipped right in between the cracks
Highlighting the subtle, unnoticed passage of time.
The years have made me kinder
Concluding with the assertion that the years have contributed to increased kindness.
