Soft Shell
Unveiling Underwhelmed Emotions: Soft Shell by A Will Away
Lyrics
Could there be a better way
Expressing a desire for a more suitable or improved method.
for me to say that I'm feeling underwhelmed?
Conveying a sense of disappointment or dissatisfaction.
Can you tell?
Questioning if the emotional state is noticeable to others.
I'm running out of attic space
Running out of space, possibly metaphorical, for hiding personal flaws or mistakes.
to keep the sort of real disgrace I can't sell
Referring to a significant personal failure that is hard to conceal.
half as well.
Difficulty in presenting or selling one's failures convincingly.
Would you say if this is what you want?
Asking for clarity on personal desires or preferences.
Or if you'll just take whatever comes your way.
Questioning if the listener is open to any outcome or has specific expectations.
I think I'm out of similes.
Expressing a lack of creative ways to describe a situation.
I think they're out of sympathy.
Suggesting a depletion of empathy from others.
I can see it.
Perceiving a situation clearly, despite challenges.
Don't tell.
Advising against sharing certain information.
Be careful what you say to me,
Warning others to be cautious with their words due to sensitivity.
the slightest shit might make me bleed.
Expressing vulnerability, where minor issues can have a significant impact.
Oh well, soft shell.
Accepting vulnerability or fragility, represented by "soft shell."
Would you say if this is what you want?
Repeating the inquiry about personal desires or preferences.
Or if you'll just take whatever comes.
Asking if the listener is willing to accept whatever life brings.
I don't feel any closer.
Expressing a lack of emotional proximity or connection.
You take, but you don't ever need.
Noticing a pattern of taking without genuine need or reciprocation.
Far still, from a feeling of closure.
Feeling distant from achieving emotional resolution or closure.
Yet in the end you're only what you eat.
Metaphorically linking one's identity to consumed experiences.
Could there be a better way?
Reiterating the initial inquiry about finding a better way.
