Lyrics
Give me some strength
Request for inner strength
To hold my head up high
Desire to maintain confidence
In a world In a world
Emphasizing the challenging nature of the world
That just wants to see me cry
Highlighting external pressure to induce tears
Give me the strength to
Repetition of the plea for strength
Hold my head up high
Emphasis on holding one's head high despite challenges
In a world In a world
Reiteration of the harsh world's impact
That just wants to make me die
Expressing the extreme emotional toll
You've go a child's face
Contrast between innocence (child's face) and darkness (devil's hair)
And the devil's hair
Symbolic description of unsettling characteristics
That you make stand on end
Creating a chilling effect with physical description
With supermarket gel
Reference to styling products, suggesting superficiality
Give me some strength to
Repetition of the plea for strength
Hold my head up high
Stressing the importance of maintaining confidence
In a world In a world that
Reiteration of the world's desire to see vulnerability
Wants to see me cry
Expressing the pressure to cry in the face of adversity
Give me the strength to
Repetition of the plea for strength
Hold my head up high
Emphasizing the need to endure challenges
In a world In a world
Reiteration of the harsh world's impact
That just wants to make me die
Highlighting the extreme emotional distress
