This song was a step out of my comfort zone with vocals, and I'm very happy with how it turned out. I've been writing lyrics for a while now but never felt the confidence to use my voice to express them properly, but that is something I'm working on.


This is about feeling stuck in life, not being able to live your ideal life because it's too intimidating, and easier to stick to whats familiar for fear of anxiousness, but ending up stuck in a loop redoing the same day over and over. It starts to feel like you're not even living any more and you become numb to everything and lose motivation.


It's a story that is all too familiar for me and a state i constantly fall back into. This one means a lot ot me and I'm glad I got to express it how i intended <3


Lyrics:


Chorus x4


do the same thing every night

for the rest of our lives

over and over again


Verse


this OCD, anxiety, depression manic tendendies

why is it always me, its just not fair

i am the victim here

better to play safe and boring,

rather than go out exploring

can't hurt if i can't feel

can't love if it's not real


Chorus x2


do the same thing every night

for the rest of our lives

over and over again

waiting to die sometime

but we really don't care

running it back again


Verse


this OCD, anxiety, depression manic tendendies

why is it always me, its just not fair

i am the victim here

better to cling to delusion

rather than face the conclusion

that my doom is quickly looming

and it was all my own doing

i hadn't heard that term until now, but yesss i am a fanatic enthusiest for so many branches of counterculture and hyperbolised aesthetics :3

This is so uniquely brilliant in so many more ways than one. I have never heard something like this, and I loved it so much I had to download it so I could sing along with it in my DAW.

Keep doing what you're doing. You have a gift.

killedherself responds:

these are the comments that keep me going :') thanks so much for this. what DAW do you use?

played it safe & listened to it safely. i like it a lot.

killedherself responds:

thank you ! <3
