- On My Sleeve Lyrics

The eyes around me are so cruel
With every chance, they steal my soul
So walk with me, talk with me
Hold my hand, I'm stumbling in consequence

It buries me alive

Can you fix what's made to be broken?
I can fix what's made to be

My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no

It only hurts to breathe

My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know, it's blinding, oh

It only hurts to breathe

Standing now, I'm alone
I need answers, tell me everything you know
So heavy is the night
Exhausted whispers tend to crucify my mind

I'm fighting but I'm blind
Can you fix what's made to be broken?
I can fix what's made to be

My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no

It only hurts to breathe

My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know, it's blinding, oh

It only hurts, it only hurts
It only hurts to breathe

I shout out
Can you hear me?
Mistakes have cost me years

Do they cost you?
Are you like me?
Tell me, please

My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no

It only hurts to breathe

My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know, it's blinding, oh

It only hurts to breathe

What is the meaning behind On My Sleeve lyrics?


When we delve into what the artist truly meant to convey, Creed's 'On My Sleeve' explores the state of being unprotected and hurt emotionally, metaphorically expressed by the heart being tattooed on the sleeve. Through the lyrics, one can detect a feeling of isolation, a search for answers, and a feeling of guilt, but at the same time, the writer emphasizes the difficulty of managing the pain that comes from being sincere and unveiling. As if being under a microscope and pushed through a hard time, the artist reflects on his character and essentially human qualities revealing the very core of one's being. His experience of the situation is greatly intensified with sorrow and hesitation as if one usually asserts his point through pain, or rather, cracks open a new understanding from it. The song is very emotional and depicts such feelings in a way that, probably, only truth and transparency can lead to understanding light. Emotional struggle and pain are the central themes of the lyrics, which might not be appropriate for children under the age of 13. The use of metaphors like “broken” and “intense emotions” does to a certain extent suggest that only the mature can handle such a situation and parental guidance would be best.
