Hell, I'm Spent
Surface-Level Love: A Soul's Exhaustion
Lyrics
You’ve got clothing on your words
You express yourself with concealed or deceptive language.
And sugar on your hands for fun
You have a sweet touch or influence in your actions for enjoyment.
Pouring salt right into my fresh ones
You're causing emotional pain intentionally.
Gotta pull myself together
Need to regain composure or control of oneself.
In this India Sun
Enduring difficulties or challenges, possibly metaphorical like intense heat.
Man, I’m spent
Feeling exhausted or drained.
Hell, I’m gone
Expressing a sense of departure or being absent.
Because I’m so tired
Being fatigued or worn out.
Of drowning myself
Tired of self-destructive behavior in relationships.
In surface level love
Frustration with shallow or superficial love.
So, I'll go
Choosing to distance oneself.
Far away
Seeking refuge or escape far from the current situation.
'Cause I’m so tired
Expressing weariness of receiving inadequate love.
Of being half loved
Desiring to be loved completely and genuinely.
Whole, whole heartedly
Emphasizing the desire for wholehearted love.
Hell, I’m spent
Reiterating a feeling of exhaustion.
You’ve got thorns under your grip
Pointing out negative qualities or challenges in someone's grasp.
And possession that hangs
Referring to the burden of ownership or control in a relationship.
From your bottom lip
Describing a cyclical and repetitive nature of the relationship.
We go in circles and it’s not the same
Highlighting a change or shift in the dynamics of the relationship.
Because those same words now have
Words that once had a familiar impact now feel different.
A different ring
Noticing a transformation in the significance of certain expressions.
Man, I’m spent
Reiterating a sense of exhaustion or depletion.
Hell, I’m gone
Reiterating a sense of departure or being absent.
'Cause I’m so tired
Expressing fatigue or weariness.
Of drowning myself
Repeating the theme of drowning in shallow love.
In surface level love
Expressing frustration with superficial relationships.
So, I'll go
Choosing to distance oneself.
Far away
Seeking refuge or escape far from the current situation.
'Cause I’m so tired
Expressing weariness of receiving inadequate love.
Of being half loved
Desiring to be loved completely and genuinely.
Whole, whole heartedly
Emphasizing the desire for wholehearted love.
But honestly
Adding honesty about emotional struggles.
I’m not okay
Acknowledging emotional pain or distress.
Hell, I'm spent
Reiterating a feeling of exhaustion.
Man I, Man I'm Spent
Repeating the expression of being spent.
Man I, Man I'm Spent
-Man I, Man I mmmm
Continuing the expression of being spent, with a melodic touch.
