Unbroken
Demi Lovato攀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like I would never feel again
Stuck in some kind of love prison
And threw away the key (Oh Oh)
Terrified
Until I stared into your eyes
Made me start to realize
I'm gonna love you like I've never been broken
I'm gonna say it like it's never been spoken
Tonight tonight
I'm letting go,go,go,go
I'm gonna give it like it's never been taken
I'm gonna fall like I don't need saving
Tonight tonight
I'm letting go, go, go, go
So played out
The same lies with a different face
But there's something in the words you say
That makes it feel all so real
I'm gonna love you like I've never been broken
I'm gonna say it like it's never been spoken
Tonight tonight
I'm letting go,go,go,go
I'm gonna give it like it's never been taken
I'm gonna fall like I don't need saving
Tonight tonight
I'm letting go, go, go, go
No need for me to run, run, run
You makin' me believe in everything
No need to go and hide, hide, hide
Gonna give you every little piece of me
I'm gonna love you like I've never been broken
I'm gonna love you like I've never been broken
I'm gonna love you like I've never been broken
I'm gonna say it like it's never been spoken
Tonight tonight
I'm letting go, go, go, go
I'm gonna give it like it's never been taken
I'm gonna fall like I don't need saving
Tonight tonight
I'm letting go, go, go, go

The final repetition of the chorus reiterates the singer's resolve to let go and love without fear.

"Don't look at me" the words of a man who knows he is losing
@derek-press
actually I think the words of a "Boy" realising he is looking at a MAN and realising he will never be a man
@The_Gallowglass
Not just losing, but he has to admit that a man is staring at him, not a beast.

I feel like so many people are building up hatred towards Japan, for all the things they have done wrong. Let me just say something; every country has done horrible things, only world war 2 is closer to the time we live in now so we bring these things up more frequent. I mean everybody knows some nasty things their country has done. Right?

I guess by your logic pain is a good thing? Pain is a way of your body telling you, “hey idiot, somethings wrong. You need to fix it.”
