Lyrics
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Expressing emotional pain through the metaphor of playing guitar strings.
Singing my life with his words,
Describing how the singer's life is articulated through the lyrics of the song.
Killing me softly with his song,
Feeling deeply affected or moved by the impact of the song.

Reiterating the emotional impact of the song, emphasizing its profound effect.
Telling my whole life with his words,
Conveying that the singer's entire life story is being narrated through the lyrics.

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style.

Expressing the intensity of the emotional impact, suggesting it feels like a form of harm.

Emphasizing that the singer's words encapsulate the entirety of the listener's life.
Killing me softly with his song
Repeating the idea of being deeply moved or affected by the song.
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd,
Describing a physical and emotional reaction to the performance, feeling overwhelmed.
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
Suspecting that the singer has discovered personal letters and is sharing their content.
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on.
Expressing a desire for the singer to stop, despite the emotional revelations.
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Repeating the metaphor of strumming pain, linking it to the emotional expression.

He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair
Feeling a connection with the singer, as if he understands the listener's deep despair.

Experiencing a sense of being overlooked or ignored by the singer despite the connection.
But he just came to singing, singing clear and strong.
