about

I find myself not only trying to justify my running away from problems, but trying to accept that it is the way in which I should act and deal with things. It’s as if these beliefs I have become the reasoning for the problems even starting in the first place. This song deals with these ideas. The beginning is my trying to find comfort in my escapism. The middle, starting at the line “Can’t help but hate…” is my convincing that a deep-seated belief system, formulated from things in my youth and other petty problems, has led to me push aside friendships. The next line, “Take a picture with misery on your wall…”, is a conversation I am having with myself about how all of these thoughts are just for false satisfaction. The final response, “Oh, how the greatest Rome falls…”, is another justification to justify all of the logical fallacies of the previous conclusions; a formulated dead end. The song then ends with my conclusion that I cannot seem to destroy anything in my life that is not beautiful, yet I have the personal belief system that I will not hurt others, although I seem to be the antithesis of these beliefs.

lyrics

I find solace in the leaches in my mind.
Congruent parts never seem to realign.
My feet are tied while you pour daggers down my throat.
Spill these words in song through a blue note.
Can’t help but hate all the friends I throw away because I believe that nothing good can stay.
Take a picture with misery on your wall.
Oh, how the greatest Rome falls.
I refuse to eat a flower that hasn’t bloomed.
I refuse to spit my bile in open wounds.
