Naked
Avril Lavigne(艾薇兒) Lyrics

I wake up in the morning
The song starts with the artist expressing that she wakes up in the morning.

Put on my face
She puts on a brave face to get through the challenges of a new day.

The one that's gonna get me
Referring to the face she puts on in the morning as a tool to get through the day.

Through another day
The purpose of the face is to help the artist make it through the day.

Doesn't really matter
The artist suggests that it does not matter how she feels inside in this moment.

How I feel inside
The artist is referring to her emotional state in the morning.

'Cause life is like a game sometimes
She compares life to a game that requires one to put on a brave face and play to win.

But then you came around me
The artist refers to the entrance of someone into her life.

The walls just disappeared
She says the walls around her have disappeared, suggesting she has no defenses or barriers between herself and the person now in her life.

Nothing to surround me
There is no longer anything around her, implying that she is now exposed or vulnerable.

And keep me from my fears
There is nothing to protect her from her fears now that the walls have dropped.

I'm unprotected
She acknowledges her vulnerability and the lack of protection she now has in the presence of the person she is referring to.

See how I've opened up
She has opened up and become more honest with the person she is referring to.

Oh, you've made me trust
The person she is referring to has helped her to trust others more.

Because I've never felt like this before
She has not experienced this kind of vulnerability or openness before.

I'm naked
The chorus uses the metaphor of being naked to describe the vulnerability she feels around the person she is referring to.

Around you
She is only this exposed around this particular person.

Does it show?
She questions whether her vulnerability and openness is noticeable to the person in question.

You see right through me
The person she is referring to can see the honest and vulnerable parts of her that others cannot.

And I can't hide
The person in question knows the real her, and she cannot hide anything from him.

And it feels so right
Despite her vulnerability, she feels that it is the right way to be.

I'm trying to remember
She is trying to recall a time when she was afraid to be herself.

Why I was afraid
She is questioning the source of her past fear of being herself.

To be myself and let the
She is talking about being her true self and letting go of the false face she puts on each day.

Covers fall away
The covers are the false persona and barriers she puts up each day.

I guess I never had someone like you
She suggests she never had someone in her life whose presence made her feel safe enough to be her true self.

To help me, to help me fit
The person in question has helped her to become more at ease with herself.

In my skin
She has become more comfortable in her own skin and is happier for it.

Oh oh yeah
A nod to the chorus refrain and the plight of being emotionally vulnerable.

Yeah, I'm naked
Returning to the refrain and metaphor of the song, she is naked and exposed around the person in question.

And I can't hide
She cannot hide her true feelings from the person she refers to, as he has helped her to become more comfortable in her own skin.

You're gonna, you're gonna see right through, baby
She is confident that the person in question will see through her emotionally exposed state.

You're gonna see right through (you're gonna see right through and I can't hide)
A repetition of the previous line, emphasizing how exposed she feels around the person in question.

(I'm so naked around you)
Repeating the theme of the song -- she feels naked and exposed around the person in question.
