Body Parts
Look Right Penny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've never been on my own
Please don't abandon me
Can I follow you home?
VERSE
I'm just a heart that tries to beat
Palpitations struggling under the pressure
I am too weak for the heavy
PRE
Unsure of where I came from
or what my future holds
Give me some guidance
I've never been on my own
Please don't abandon me
Can I follow you home?
VERSE
I'm just a brain that tries to think
Messages to other body parts interrupted
Too much damage in my head
I am too sad for the happy
PRE
Unsure of where I came from
or what my future holds
Give me some guidance
I've never been on my own
Please don't abandon me
Can I follow you home?
BRIDGE
Too insecure for my own good
Denying all of my troubles
Held under a mess of feelings
Never reaching for the surface
But I can't take it anymore!
Give me some guidance
I've never been on my own
Please don't abandon me
Can I follow you home?
The Look Right Penny's song "Body Parts" is about struggling with one's own identity and feeling lost in the world. The song starts with the singer's plea for guidance, as they admit that they have never been alone and fear being abandoned. The singer feels like they are just a heart that tries to beat, struggling with palpitations and feeling weak under the weight of the pressure. The lyrics acknowledge that the singer is unsure of their origin and what the future holds, which adds to their insecurity.
As the song progresses, the singer reveals that they are also just a brain that tries to think, but there is too much damage in their head and they are too sad for happiness. They feel like messages to other body parts are being interrupted, which could represent a sense of disconnect from oneself or others. The bridge highlights the singer's lack of self-confidence and inability to deal with their troubles, but they become determined to change their situation and reach for the surface.
The overall theme of the song seems to be about feeling lost and disconnected from oneself and the world. The lyrics highlight struggles with identity, insecurity, and a fear of being alone. However, the song also suggests that there is hope for change and growth if one is determined to reach for the surface.
