Christina Aguilera Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Praying that you'd come and get me
But now I've found my second wind
Now I found my second skin
Well I know what you were thinking
You thought you'd watch me fade away
When you broke me into pieces
But I gave each piece a name
One of me is wiser
One of me is stronger, one of me is a fighter
And there's a thousand faces of me
And we're gonna rise up
And we're gonna rise up
For every time you broke me
Well you're gonna face an army, army of me
Welcome to my revolution
All your walls are breaking down
It's time you had a taste of losing
Time the table's turned around
I see a glimpse of recognition
But it's too late ugh it's too late
And what you though was your best decision
Just became your worst mistake
One of me is wiser
One of me is stronger
One of me is a fighter
And there's a thousand faces of me
And were gonna rise up
And were gonna rise up
For every time you broke me
Well you're gonna face an army, army of me
So how does it feel
To know that I beat ya
That I can defeat ya
Oh how does it feel
'Cause it sure feels sweeter
It should be sweeter to me
Now that I'm wiser
Now that I'm stronger
Now that I'm a fighter
There's a thousand faces of me
And I'm gonna rise up
I'm gonna rise up
For every time you broke me
There's a thousand faces of me
And I'm gonna rise up
Yeah I'm gonna rise up
For every time you broke me
You're gonna face an army
Army of me
The lyrics of "Army of Me" by Christina Aguilera signify empowerment, resilience, and strength in the face of adversity. The song is about moving on from someone who has hurt you and finding the courage and determination within yourself to rebuild and rise again. The opening lines, "I've been standing where you left me, praying that you'd come and get me," represent the idea of waiting for someone to come and save you, but realizing that sometimes you have to save yourself.
The chorus of the song, which repeats the lines "One of me is wiser, one of me is stronger, one of me is a fighter, and there's a thousand faces of me," highlights the different aspects of the singer's personality that have emerged as a result of the pain and hurt she has experienced. The song implies that although she may have been broken, she has not been defeated and has instead grown stronger and more resilient.
The final lines of the song, "For every time you broke me, you're gonna face an army, army of me," challenge the person who has hurt the singer to face the consequences of their actions. The repeated use of the word "army" suggests that the singer has found solidarity with others who have been hurt, creating a collective force that is stronger than any individual alone.

I've been standing where you left me
I've been waiting for you to come back
Praying that you'd come and get me
I hoped that you'd change your mind and return to me
But now I've found my second wind
Now I've gained new strength and motivation
Now I found my second skin
Now I've discovered a new identity and strength
Well I know what you were thinking
I understand your intentions
You thought you'd watch me fade away
You expected me to give up and disappear
When you broke me into pieces
When you shattered my sense of self and confidence
But I gave each piece a name
But I took control of each part of myself and made them stronger
One of me is wiser
I am now more intelligent
One of me is stronger, one of me is a fighter
I am now more powerful and resilient
And there's a thousand faces of me
I have many sides to myself
And we're gonna rise up
We are going to be victorious
For every time you broke me
For every time you hurt me
Well you're gonna face an army, army of me
You will have to contend with many strong versions of myself
Welcome to my revolution
Welcome to my rebellion against your power over me
All your walls are breaking down
Your defenses are crumbling
It's time you had a taste of losing
It's time for you to experience defeat
Time the table's turned around
It's my turn to have the upper hand
I see a glimpse of recognition
I see that you realize your mistake
But it's too late ugh it's too late
But it's too late to fix things
And what you though was your best decision
And what you believed was the right choice
Just became your worst mistake
Turned out to be your biggest regret
So how does it feel
How does it feel
To know that I beat ya
To know that I overcame you
That I can defeat ya
That I can defeat you
Oh how does it feel
Oh, what does it feel like
'Cause it sure feels sweeter
Because it's much more satisfying
It should be sweeter to me
I should take pleasure in it
Yeah I'm gonna rise up
I'm going to succeed
You're gonna face an army
You will have to deal with many strong versions of myself
Army of me
A group of powerful versions of myself
