Cover art for Bloodgiver lyrics by Bear vs. Shark

I think it's about rising above the shit people give you and taking back you life. "Tire this wrecking ball on jagged line been waking morning A self defense machine to keep me up for the time being" -He used to be a force to be reckoned with but time has worn him down and now he hides behind a wall to protect himself and to keep himself moving.

The whole bit with the clam or muscle is pretty simple. All the pain(or sand)onlymakes him stronger and beautiful(like a pearl,which is produced by sand in a clam)

"Regrets will fall today Our shields will fall today Hibernation for some time now Sleeping bears to wake at dawn Travel far to surf the sky Been bolted down and stepped on" -He's finally had enough of it and feels he is ready to deal with life again. He was a hibernating bear who had been stepped on and beaten but is now walking on air.
