In this heartfelt ballad, the artist navigates the complexities of love and heartbreak. The metaphor of a tattoo is used to symbolize a past relationship, one that has left an indelible mark on her heart, much like a tattoo leaves a permanent mark on the skin. Despite moving on and taking a new direction in life, she acknowledges that the memories and experiences from this relationship will always be a part of her. It's about learning from past mistakes, growing stronger from them and realizing that even though things didn't work out as planned, it doesn't mean everything was broken. The song is also an affirmation of self-love and resilience - even though she once needed protection, she has now found strength within herself to move forward.
