Story Behind The Song

This song is very reflective of how my mind works. I often go through this cycle of valleys as everyone does, but my way of processing things like these valleys is hindered by my innate tendency to be overly analytical.

Song Description

This song is about not being able to trust your own thoughts.

Lyrics

Try anything, try nothing
Get to the heart of this, it's been... bleeding over something
Excuses move cleverly, I'm lost in my reverie
Loosen the grip of this... freedom to hear everything

Suddenly resolved, I'm suddenly unclear
The same old pitfalls are drawing me near

Hear me slowly, I've got the strangest fear
It's not that I'm lonely, it's just that nobody's here
For when I lose sight of all that's true or false
Falsified are my thoughts, so, mind, don't get lost

I'll be counting the days until my next not-so-terminal case
Do I always think that I'm ready?
So, start making sense to me and stop being everything
That silences me at any given time

Hear me slowly, I've got the strangest fear
It's not that I'm lonely, it's just that nobody's here
For when I lose sight of all that's true or false
Falsified are my thoughts, so, mind, don't get lost

Blue-lined paper, it's cutting me deep
Not in an obvious way, no, I'm not hurt by the trees
Well, I wrote it down, but I forgot it anyway
Who's to remind me?
Who's to hear me say?

Is it just like I said?
Months ago, I was a wiser man
Oh, months from now
Well, it comes and goes
It'll come and go and leave and stay
And change around the break of some day

Hear me slowly, I've got the strangest fear
It's not that I'm lonely, it's just that nobody's here
For when I lose sight of all that's true or false
Falsified are my thoughts, so, mind, don't get lost
