Music Monday: Christina Grimmie Edition

It's six past midnight in Texas, making it officially Monday.

I've had the song Titanium in my head for a few days after hearing it in Pitch Perfect. After Youtubing a few versions I found Christina Grimmie, a young girl who has a soul and voice that sends shivers down my spine.

Titanium is originally by David Guetta and Sia, but I've been replaying her version so much that I haven't even bothered looking up the original. It's a beautiful, intense song and she really captures the power behind the lyrics.


You shout it loud, but I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
you 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
I'm 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
Fired 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

Enjoy!
