Undressed
Eera Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cowardly you made me lose my power
Taken off my hands without me saying a word
Silently I try to walk towards them
Beauty that I had until you made the wrong choice

Show me how I am meant to dance through you
The life I lead, oh I need you to guide me
Show me how I am meant to dance through it
The life I lead, oh I need you to guide me

Describe the world how you would like to shape it
I want to be the hand that is raised by your arm
I'm naked on my own without our secrets
You will miss out on how I made you forget that

There are so many ways of dying
The worst one is to continue on living
There are so many ways of dying
The worst one is to continue on living
Continue on living
Continue on
Continue on
Continue on
Continue on





I'll follow every branch grown by you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Undressed" by Eera appear to be about a relationship that has taken away the singer's power and left her feeling vulnerable and dependent on the other person. It seems as though the partner in question made a choice that harmed the singer, who is now trying to reclaim her power and beauty. She wants this person to guide her life and show her how to move forward, referencing the idea of dancing as a metaphor for navigating the challenges she's facing. Essentially, the song appears to be about the struggle for autonomy and agency within a romantic relationship.


The lyric "describe the world how you would like to shape it, I want to be the hand that is raised by your arm" suggests that the singer wants to be part of the world her partner envisions, but she also wants to play an active role in shaping it alongside him. The line "I'm naked on my own without our secrets, you will miss out on how I made you forget that" suggests that the singer feels exposed and vulnerable without the intimacy that comes with sharing secrets, and that the partner is missing out on how she has helped him forget his own vulnerabilities.


Finally, the repetition of "continue on living" in the last stanza suggests a fear of stagnation, of being stuck in a relationship that doesn't allow for growth or progress. The idea that there are many ways of dying, but the worst one is to continue on living suggests that the singer fears being trapped in a relationship that is not fulfilling or life-giving.
