the way
BulletProof Messenger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a body all deceiving
A confidence built from losing it all
In a cycle long repeating
Ignorance builds each time I fall
Do you feel like letting go
(Chorus)
Have my scars unknown
And don't try to say that you will make it alright
(Verse 2)
A desperate time I'm needing
A little bit more to ease my pain
Do you feel like letting go
(Chorus)
(End)
..Its alright x6
In "The Way" by BulletProof Messenger, the singer conveys a sense of inner conflict and insecurity. The first verse suggests that the singer is trapped in a cycle of self-deception, losing their confidence, and rebuilding it from scratch after each fall. The repetition of the question "Do you feel like letting go" could be interpreted in two ways. On one hand, it could be a call for help, an invitation to the listener to intervene and offer support. On the other hand, it could be a challenge, a defiant statement that the singer will keep going despite their struggles, and that they don't need anyone else to save them.
In the chorus, the singer reveals a coping mechanism that they have found to deal with their pain: hiding their scars from others. This suggests that the singer is ashamed of their past, or that they don't want to burden others with their problems. They also reject any attempt from outsiders to help them, perhaps because they have been let down before, or because they don't trust anyone to understand them. The repeated line "And don't try to say that you will make it alright" reinforces this sense of mistrust and isolation.
Overall, "The Way" is a poignant song that explores themes of vulnerability, resilience, and the complex relationship between self-reliance and interdependence. It invites the listener to empathize with the singer's struggles, while acknowledging the limits of human connection and communication.
