Goya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kawałek po kawałku, aż nic nie zostanie ze mnie
Bo fragment po fragmencie zabierasz mi najdroższy
Wszystko co najlepsze, tak się o mnie troszczysz
Lecz zabrałeś mi coś, co nie należy do ciebie
To, to moja, to moja twarz
Dobre oczy masz, jest mi prawie jak w niebie
Po jednym słowie drugie na kartce wypisujesz
To, co mam powiedzieć, tak wiele do mnie czujesz
Za jednym ruchem drugi, tu biec, a tutaj zwolnić
Wiem, że tym sposobem starasz się mnie chronić
Lecz zabrałeś mi coś, co nie należy do ciebie
To, to moja, to moja twarz
Dobre oczy masz, jest mi prawie jak w niebie
Lecz chcę czasem o siebie dbać
The lyrics of Goya's song "Kawałek po kawałku" describe a possessive and controlling relationship, in which the singer feels like she is being slowly stripped of her identity and autonomy piece by piece. The metaphor of "kawałek po kawałku" (piece by piece) is used to convey how the lover is slowly chipping away at her sense of self, until there is nothing left of her. The lover seems to be taking everything that is most precious to her, including her face and her ability to take care of herself. However, despite the lover's apparent concern for her, the singer wishes to have more control over her own life and choices.
The second stanza describes the lover's tendency to dictate what the singer should say and do, while also trying to protect her from harm. This could be seen as a form of emotional manipulation, where the lover uses their concern for the singer as a way to control her actions and decisions. The singer recognizes that the lover's actions are borne out of love and a desire to protect her, but still wants to assert her own identity and independence.
Overall, the lyrics of "Kawałek po kawałku" paint a picture of a relationship that is both loving and controlling, where the singer feels like she is slowly losing herself to her partner's desires and needs.
