Amoeba
Unveiling the Enigma: Hannah Ashcroft's Single-Bodied Reflections
Lyrics
Think you know me well
Expressing doubt about the depth of understanding towards the speaker
Single bodied cell
Metaphorically describing oneself as a single-celled organism
Think you know me well
Reiteration of skepticism about being truly known
Single bodied
Emphasizing the singular nature of the speaker
If you’re urging a person to open their heart
Encouraging someone to open up emotionally
It’s imperfect in places, disturbing in parts
Highlighting imperfections and disturbances in the speaker's emotions
Following lines on the palm of your hand
Metaphor of following the lines on the palm as a metaphor for seeking answers
You’’re just searching for something you don’t understand
Suggesting the person is searching for something they can't comprehend
Think you know me well
Repeating doubt about being truly understood
I’m a single bodied cell
Reiteration of being a singular entity
Think you know me well
Repeating skepticism about the depth of knowledge
I’m a single bodied
Emphasizing singularity and uniqueness of the speaker
If the heat of the moment’s controlling your thoughts
Addressing the influence of intense emotions on thoughts
It’s your sense of perception that twists and distorts
Pointing out the distortion caused by the person's perception
You don’t know where I’m going, you don’t know who I am
Highlighting uncertainty about the speaker's destination and identity
Just a husk of a woman on the cusp of a plan.
Describing the speaker as a mere shell with an evolving plan
Think you know me well
Repeating doubt about the depth of understanding towards the speaker
I’m a single bodied cell
Reiteration of being a singular entity
Think you know me well
Reiteration of skepticism about being truly known
I’m a single bodied cell
Emphasizing the singular nature of the speaker
There’s no standing ovation
Expressing the absence of acknowledgment or approval
No round of applause
Rejecting the idea of applause for the speaker's experiences
It’s not the end of the game
Emphasizing that the speaker's journey isn't concluded until a significant event occurs
Until somebody scores
Connecting the end of the "game" with achieving a noteworthy accomplishment
Think you know me well
Repeating doubt about being truly understood
I’m a single bodied cell
Reiteration of being a singular entity
Think you know me well
Repeating skepticism about the depth of knowledge
I’m a single bodied cell
Emphasizing singularity and uniqueness of the speaker
