She song meaning

This song might be about a particular person Armstrong knows or used to know who wanted to find consolation by sharing her problems with him (“I'm taking heed just for you”), but in general this song is not about just one person, it’s about a problem that a lot of people experience regardless of age, location or social status.

The girl described in this song suffers from having turned into someone she really is not. She shaped herself into who other people wanted her to be and now feels insecurity and doubts caused by trying to match the expectations (“All her doubts were someone else's point of view”). And although she did her best trying to fit into a certain scheme she is now miserable because there is no way for her to move forward or do anything with her life (“Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?”). And now that she’s realized it, it’s time to “smash the silence”, stop acting and finally be who she really is.
