Smother
Slutever Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

In a woman
I'm confused because you're not in the room
Forgot my breathin'
Kinda hungry, but I'm anxious
So I need somethin' soft
I'm still teethin'
We get it now
We get along until the timer goes off

Its time for seein'
Hold my hand 'till I stop cryin'
Tell me everything's fine
Smother me, yeah
Smother me
Smother me
Smother me
Nothing's wrong
Why am I unhappy
And I can't decide why I stopped cryin'
Stay that way, kickin', screamin' 'till I get what I want
I keep whinin'
I like to move around, but everytime I stand up I fall
So I stopped tryin'
Hold my hand and carry me
And tell me everything's fine
Smother me, yeah
Smother me
Smother me
Smother me
Carry me, I'm unhappy
Carry me, I'm unhappy
Carry me, I'm unahppy
Carry me, I'm unhappy
Smother me
Smother me
Smother me
Smother me
Smother me
Smother me

Smother me
Smother me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Slutever's song Smother portray a sense of confusion and anxiety within a relationship. The singer is left feeling lost and unsure when their partner is not present in the room. They express a desire for comfort and softness, and speak of still learning and growing. The song continues with the singer admitting to being unhappy, yet unable to understand why. They feel the urge to kick and scream to get what they want but ultimately give up, asking their partner to carry them and assure them that everything is fine. The chorus repeats the phrase "Smother me" several times, implying a need for intense emotional connection and comfort from their partner.

Overall, the lyrics suggest a complex and perhaps unhealthy dynamic between the singer and their partner. They are unable to cope on their own and rely heavily on their partner to provide emotional stability. The repetition of the phrase "Smother me" could be seen as a cry for help, a need to be suffocated by the intensity of their emotions and their relationship.
