A pop song about depression and spirituality where the speaker doesn't have the energy to put forward the necessary effort to escape their predicament.
lyrics
And I have, all the same feelings
I had when I was nineteen;
Wanting to die, to bite off and choke on this swollen tongue
Needing to drown in smoky nowheresville
To forget how, this back aches when I wake up to dream
But now, it's all buried under notes and annotations
Explanations of worth and rights
Though, honestly, this past year has shaken me
Sufficiently to know there's no foundation
If we have to build one up
Thrownness and knotted thinking are the layer in front
Of a peace, not dependent on notes and needing
But I stay knotted most days, dragging ass
Knowing heaven's just behind
But stuck for the wanting
But stuck for the note taking
