Titanium
Sia David Guetta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You shout it out
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
Shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
Talking loud, not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Stone hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, as bulletproof glass

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall




I am titanium
I am titanium

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Titanium" by Sia & David Guetta are all about resilience and determination in the face of adversity. The chorus of the song serves as a defiant response to criticism and negativity - the singer may be criticized and shot down, but they refuse to fall because they are "bulletproof" and unbreakable like titanium. The singer's words are loud, but their message is not necessarily clear or meaningful. The emphasis is on their inner strength and the power of determination.


The verse of "Titanium" describes a scenario in which the singer is being attacked and faced with barriers. They are talking loudly, but their words are not being heard. The line "I'm talking loud, not saying much" is particularly poignant, as it speaks to the idea that sometimes we can feel like we are screaming into a void without any real impact or effect. Despite the singer's apparent lack of effectiveness in communicating, their resilience and strength keep them going.


The song's bridge features the metaphor of a "machine gun" firing at those who run, suggesting that the singer is not easily intimidated or deterred by obstacles. It is this determination and strength that ultimately make the singer "titanium" - unbreakable in the face of adversity.

Defending myself against those who try to harm me
