Shelter
noahmadethiss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel less like myself and more like you
And every time you'd fall, I'd go down with you
I wouldn't hate myself if I never met you
Race against the shadows on the wall
I'm paranoid but still seem to sleep through it all
And when I wake you're no longer there
It's my bad habit to care where you are right now
Lately I've been sheltered by you
I feel less like myself and more like you
And every time you'd fall, I'd go down with you
I wouldn't hate myself if I never met you
The lyrics to Noahmadethiss's song "Shelter" explore the theme of being emotionally dependent on someone else, to the point where one loses their sense of self. The singer expresses feeling sheltered by this person, suggesting that they have relied on them for emotional support and stability. In doing so, they have become less like their own individual and more like the person they are dependent on. This dependency is further emphasized by the line, "And every time you'd fall, I'd go down with you," indicating a willingness to sacrifice one's own well-being to stay connected to this person.
The lyrics also touch on the singer's self-perception and its connection to their relationship with the other person. The line, "I wouldn't hate myself if I never met you," implies that the singer harbors negative feelings towards themselves, possibly due to the consequences of this dependency. They question their own identity and express a desire to regain a sense of individuality that has been overshadowed by their connection to this person.
The chorus repeats the feeling of being sheltered, reinforcing the underlying theme. The line, "There's no love left in the air," suggests a loss of love or emotional fulfillment in the relationship, indicating that the shelter the singer seeks is no longer providing the support it once did.
Overall, "Shelter" delves into the complexities of emotional dependency, the impact it has on one's sense of self, and the desire to break free from it in order to regain personal identity and emotional fulfillment.

Lately I've been sheltered by you
Recently, I've found refuge in your presence
I feel less like myself and more like you
I've become less true to my own identity and more like a reflection of you
And every time you'd fall, I'd go down with you
Whenever you faced adversity, I would also be affected and experience the same hardships
I wouldn't hate myself if I never met you
If our paths never crossed, I wouldn't feel regret or self-loathing
Race against the shadows on the wall
Engage in a constant struggle against my own fears and insecurities
I'm paranoid but still seem to sleep through it all
Although I have constant anxieties, I manage to sleep peacefully
And when I wake you're no longer there
Upon awakening, I find that you are no longer by my side
It's my bad habit to care where you are right now
It's a recurring pattern of mine to worry about your current whereabouts
There's no love left in the air
The atmosphere is devoid of any remaining love or affection
Lately I've been sheltered by you
Recently, I've found refuge in your presence
I feel less like myself and more like you
I've become less true to my own identity and more like a reflection of you
And every time you'd fall, I'd go down with you
Whenever you faced adversity, I would also be affected and experience the same hardships
I wouldn't hate myself if I never met you
If our paths never crossed, I wouldn't feel regret or self-loathing

Lyrics:
lately i feel sheltered by you
i feel less like myself and more like you
and every time you'd fall i'd go down with you
i wouldn't hate myself if i never met you
race against the shadows on the wall
i'm paranoid but still seem to sleep through it all
and when i wake up you're no longer there
it's my bad habit to care
where are you right now
there's no love left in the air
lately i feel sheltered by you
i feel less like myself and more like you
and every time you'd fall i'd go down with you
i wouldn't hate myself if i never met you
