Soft
Sense Field Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It wouldn't be anything to me
If you want it to, want it to
Take apart the picture and the end
Go ahead now

I cannot see how it all relates to me
If you want it to
Take apart the picture and the end
Go ahead now

It's hard to get to you
(You're so soft)
I am running water, watch it flow
You are the river, watch it flow




I wouldn't miss my time
Not on this earth

Overall Meaning

The song "Soft" by Sense Field is a beautiful and inspiring piece that speaks about the inner strength of people and how little things can affect us differently. The lyrics, "It wouldn't be anything to me/If you want it to" suggest that the singer is indifferent towards something that may be bothering them or something that worries them. They are willing to let it go and take apart the picture or the problem so that it no longer affects them. The singer thus urges the listeners to do the same - to let go of things that do not matter, and let them flow away like water.


The lines, "I cannot see how it all relates to me/If you want it to" suggest that it is essential to have a clear perspective and not get bogged down by things that do not matter. The phrase "It's hard to get to you" indicates that the singer may be a sensitive person who gets easily affected by things around them. However, they seem to have found a way to overcome their emotions and let things flow.
In contrast, the lines "You are the river, watch it flow" suggest that someone may hold power over the singer or in the broader sense, the listener. While it may be challenging to overcome that, the singer encourages their listeners to stay strong and resilient no matter what comes in their way.


Overall, Sense Field delivers a powerful message in "Soft". The song is about having inner strength and resilience, the importance of letting go and allowing things to pass. It also highlights the potential impact of others on one's life, and how it could be challenging to overcome that. Nonetheless, the singer makes a compelling argument that it is possible to stay strong and to be in control despite any current circumstances.

Awesome band. Discovered them on that Revelation sampler CD came out in the 90s. Used to listen to Building regularly on the way to surf. Sad to hear about their singer he was very talented, unique voice

I like songs like this and Today and tomorrow. They had a quicksound/into another type groove. I want more bands like this, any suggestions?

There is something about the way Quicksand and Into another smack into their grooves that I really like. It's got a very dance-like vibe to it. I did not feel the same about texas is the reason. They are more fast paced as I recall.

Rodney Sellars

This is so much better than the one I remember!

MrMmnngghh

I think you meant "Quicksand" ;-) doesn't matter, they're a great band whatever one calls them. Have you tried Texas Is The Reason? Their album "Do You Know Who You Are" is on this site. I can highly reccommend that if you haven't heard it.
