The Script: Exit Wounds Meaning

Exit Wounds Lyrics

My hands are cold, my body's numb
Im still in shock, what have you done?
My head is pounding, my visions blurred
Your mouth is moving, I don't hear a word

And I hurt so bad, that I search my skin
For the entry point, where love went...

   I listen to alot of The Script lately, infact, they are my favorite band! Anyways, back to the concept, it is about this guy/gal who is in pain of his/her former relationship and his/her former lover left him/her in depression, The line "And ricochet, and bounced around, you left a hole, when you walked out" That means you took in for killing him/her and after hating them, but to make it shorter, let it follow Bullet from a gun. You will understand.

   This song is most possibly, if not definitely about what a guy goes through after a breakup.
   
   Whether the mistake is on either side, when we leave a relationship, we are always bombarded with feelings of insecurity, because something that completed you before has left and become a fragment of the past, a memory. We aren't designed to always look forward, and most of the time we drown in our sorrow, every time we fail to look forward and reflect on the past instead.
   
   In this song, it seems that the girl was the one who called for the breakup.
   
   My hands are cold
   My body's numb
   I'm still in shock
   What have you done
   My head is pounding
   My vision's blur
   Your mouth is moving
   I don't hear a word
   
   When she breaks it to him, that she wants a breakup.
   
   And it hurts so bad
   That I search my skin
   For the entry point
   Where love went in
   And ricocheted
   And bounced around
   And left a hole when you walked out
   
   Describing the feelings that roars in us after a breakup.
   
   I'm falling through the doors of the emergency room
   Can anybody help me with these exit wounds
   I don't know how much more love, this heart can lose
   And I'm dying, dying from these exit wounds
   Wooooounds, where their leaving, the scars you're keeping
   Exit wounds
   
   His cry out to the world, a plead for help. When we lose somebody, we lose ourselves, and we struggle with reality and ourselves.
   
   Marks a battle
   Still feel raw
   A million pieces of me
   On the floor
   I'm damaged goods
   For all to see
   Now who would ever want to be with me
   
   I've got all the baggage
   Drink the pills
   Yeah this is living but without the will
   Blacken out
   I'm shutting down
   You've left a hole
   You walked out
   
   Describing his breakdown after she leaves. Taking pills, not having a will to live, breaking down (shutting down), realizing that there's a gaping hole in their life.
   
   Loose your clothes and show your scars
   That's who you are
   Loose your clothes and show your scars
   That's who you are
   Loose your clothes and show your scars
   That's who you are
   Loose your clothes and show your scars
   That's who you are
   
   His way of trying to recover, trying to survive after.
   
   Marks a battle
   Still feel raw
   A million pieces of me
   On the floor
   
   Pretty self-explanatory.
   
   It's really devastating to go through a break up, and I myself am actually just broken up. Was my mistake, and it was just inevitable that she called for it. We make mistakes, and we don't look back - but somehow, life has its way of making us pay for them.
