All My Bones
Greta Svabo Bech Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All my bones
Just because I'm clumsy doesn't mean
You can get away with everything
Just because I'm weaker doesn't mean
You can trip me over whenever
You can trip me over whenever
You took all my bones
You took all my emotions
You put them back together
Made me think that they were all of me
You took my bones (All my bones)
You took my bones (All my bones)
You took my bones (All my bones)
All my bones
Just because I'm real doesn't mean
You can feed me lies and I will swallow
I know that you think you're smart enough
You can tell me anything whatever
You can do whatever whenever
You took all my bones
You took all my bones
You took all my emotions
You put them back together
Made me think that they were all of me
You took my bones (All my bones)
You took my bones (All my bones)
You took my bones (All my bones)
All my bones
You took all my...
You took all my...
You took all my, all my, all my
Didn't you think you got it all
Playing every game that you wanted to play
Didn't you know i can play just as bad
I got, I got all my bones
You took my bones
All my, all my
All my bones
All my, all my
You took all my body my bones
You took all my, all my, all my...
You took all my bones
In "All My Bones," Greta Svabo Bech addresses a person who has taken advantage of her vulnerability. The repeated phrase "You took all my bones" refers to the perpetrator taking away everything that made her strong and leaving her vulnerable to their manipulation. The mention of being clumsy and weaker indicates that the perpetrator saw her as an easy target. However, Bech asserts that just because she is "real," it doesn't mean she will accept the lies and manipulation anymore. The line "Didn't you think you got it all" suggests that the perpetrator thought they had successfully broken her, but in the end, she claims back her power with the declaration "I got all my bones."
The song explores the theme of power dynamics in relationships and how one person can manipulate and control the other's emotions and ultimately break them. Bech's powerful vocals effectively convey her anger and frustration towards the perpetrator who has left her in a vulnerable state. The lyrics are straightforward and forceful, leaving no room for misinterpretation.
