Titanium
Charice 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
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 yeah, yeah, yeah
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 oh oh, oooh, uuh, uuh
Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard as bulletproof glass oooh
You shot 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)
No I won't fall
I am titanium

Wow! This song is originally performed by Sia and David Guetta but also performed by X-Factor Australia 2014 winner Marlisa Punzalan who sang it in last year. I loved her voice .. it reminds me of making a new soundtrack and going dancing on ice like "Snow King 2". Artistry on ice brought me here in 2015! Thank You!! :D
