Intro: Verse: 1 Combat I’m ready for combat I say I don’t want that but what if I do? ’Cause cruelty wins in the movies I’ve got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you Pre-Chorus: Easy they come easy they go I jump from the train I ride off alone I never grew up it’s getting so old Help me hold on to you I’ve been the archer I’ve been the prey Who could ever leave me darling But who could stay? Verse: 2 Dark side I search for your dark side But what if I’m alright right right right here? And I cut off my nose just to spite my face Then I hate my reflection for years and years Pre-Chorus: I wake in the night I pace like a ghost The room is on fire invisible smoke And all of my heroes die all alone Help me hold on to you I’ve been the archer I’ve been the prey Screaming who could ever leave me darling But who could stay? (I see right through me I see right through me) Bridge ’Cause they see right through me They see right through me They see right through Can you see right through me? They see right through They see right through me I see right through me I see right through me Pre-Chorus All the king’s horses all the king’s men Couldn’t put me together again ’Cause all of my enemies started out friends Help me hold on to you I’ve been the archer I’ve been the prey Who could ever leave me darling But who could stay? (I see right through me I see right through me) Who could stay? Who could stay? Who could stay? You could stay You could stay... Outro Combat I’m ready for combat

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un combat intérieur et des doutes sur soi-même. L'artiste se sent tiraillée entre l'envie de proximité avec les autres et la peur d'être abandonnée. Elle explore des thèmes de vulnérabilité, de recherche identitaire et de solitude, tout en se questionnant sur la sincérité des relations humaines. Dans un contexte émotionnelement chargé, elle décrit la lutte entre l’ambition et la fragilité, faisant face à ses propres démons tout en cherchant désespérément un soutien. Les métaphores du chasseur et de la proie illustrent ce jeu complexe entre l’attaque et la défense dans l’amour et l’amitié.
