Tear It Up Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Constant bombardment never ending assault
Blames keep shifting till no one is at fault
You keep trying to make me feel guilt
But your words cant get through the wall i built
Fortified
Ive built walls around me for my protection
To prevent myself from being used and from rejection
Fortified
The lyrics of "Fortified" by Tear It Up depict a person who has been hurt and let down in the past by someone they trusted too many times. This person has built up emotional walls around themselves to protect themselves from ever feeling that kind of pain again. The constant barrage of blame-shifting and manipulation from their abuser has left them feeling numb to any kind of guilt, and even though they try to break down those walls, they can't penetrate the emotional fortress that this person has built around themself. The chorus "Fortified, I've built walls around me for my protection" succinctly sums up the main theme of the song.
