《Bit by Bit》的詞曲創作和演唱者是美國流行搖滾歌手泰勒·斯威夫特。以下是《Bit by Bit》的部分歌詞:
Will you write my eulogy in verse?
你會用詩來描述我的悼念嗎?
In my last letter to my mom and dad
給我父母親最後一封信
Tell them that I'm at peace, yeah
告訴他們我過得很好
Don't make a scene with your obituary
別在過世簿中鬧事
Or the guilt that haunts your dreams
讓罪惡追逐著你的夢想
So they don't hear a single scream
他們聽不到我的尖叫
From a phone when it's disconnected
因為它已經被斷開了
You said we're built to crumble bit by bit
你說我們就像被點點滴滴堆積而成
As I sit here staring at my skin
我坐在這裡看著自己的皮膚
A shattered version of a human being I'll never be again
一個破壞的人間殘酷的一個版面我已經無法再重新回顧了
The feeling in my skin
感覺在我的皮膚裏面
And it's sinking in and I don't want to die
這些事情無論如何也阻止不了我,我不想死
You said we're built to crumble bit by bit
你說我們就像被點點滴滴堆積而成
It's not a mystery, it's just the way I am
這不是一個謎,只是我現在的樣子而已
It's not a cry in the night, it's just my body shutting down
這不是一個夜晚的哭泣,只是我的身體正在衰退
And I'm trying to find a way to stop it, yeah
我試著找一個方法來阻止它,耶
Trying to find a way to stop it, yeah
試著找一個方法來阻止它,耶
And I know it's a lot to ask of you
我知道這對你來說是個很大的要求
But please don't let me go out like this
但請不要讓我這樣離開
Just like this, yeah
就像這樣,耶
以上是部分《Bit by Bit》的詞曲內容,全曲充滿了對生命的渴望和無奈的感慨。
