Titanium
Mike Dawes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Stone-heart, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone heart loves bulletproof glass

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

Line by Line Meaning

You shout it out, But I can't hear a word you say
Despite your shouting, I won't listen to what you're saying


I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm making noise but not really communicating anything


I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
Your negative words don't affect me and only come back to harm you


You shoot me down, but I get up
Even though you may try to bring me down, I will keep rising


I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
I'm unbreakable and have nothing to fear


Fire away, fire away
Go ahead and try to attack me


Ricochet, you take your aim
Your negative words and actions will end up hurting you instead of me


You shoot me down but I won't fall I am titanium
You may try to bring me down but I'm strong and resilient, like titanium


Cut me down But it's you who'll have further to fall
If you try to take me down, you will be the one who suffers more


Ghost town and haunted love
The love we once had is now empty and haunting


Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones I'm talking loud not saying much
Even though you may physically or verbally harm me, I will still persevere, and your words won't affect me


Stone-heart, machine gun Firing at the ones who run Stone heart loves bulletproof glass
You may have a heart of stone and try to use your power to hurt those who are weaker, but I won't let that affect me. Your barriers to protect yourself, like bulletproof glass, only prove that you're vulnerable and scared


I am titanium
I am strong and unbreakable, like the metal titanium
