Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
If you think like a whore,
then you’re a fucking whore.
Plagiarism is the highest form of flattery. Why would you ever want to be like me?
We are all someone else’s terrible idea.
If you catch the evil twin,
then why would you keep it alive?
If you feel the fucking daggers,
then why not just step aside?
You are all bastard children,
and you’ve taken it all the wrong way. Keep fooling yourself with your unappreciation.
Look into my eyes and know that I can see right through you.
I'll erase you from the thoughts and tongues of everyone you know.
Even if you apologized to me right now it would mean nothing.
Cry to me and beg for mercy all you want, you’re fucking dead.
You're fucking dead, dead.
I don’t care when or why you cry.
I just want to be there when you die.
I’ll be collecting soon.
I’ll be coming for my payment soon.
Look into my eyes and know that I can see right through you.
I'll erase you from the thoughts and tongues of everyone you know.
Even if you apologized to me right now it would mean nothing.
Cry to me and beg for mercy all you want, you’re fucking dead.
You're fucking dead.
You’re nothing but a fucking pig.
And you owe me your life.
Van flip times a thousand.
Don’t believe the hype.
No care ever, (ever.)
No care ever, (ever.)
No care ever, (ever.)
No care ever, (ever.)
then you’re a fucking whore.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
i still dont see how emmure sounds anything like the acacia strain. but it's all cool.
i love both bands.
look up vids on youtube comparing the two, youll see how emmure has ripped their shit more than a few times.
yeah they hardly sound the same<br /> <br /> and this song is way different than any emmure song.<br /> <br /> <br /> and if they do sound the same, isn't that a compliment?<br /> <br /> how many bands sound like each other. a lot.<br /> <br /> they just need to suck it up in my opinion.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> in the end, the acacia strain is full of a bunch of 13 year old girls on their first period.
lol I'd like to see you say that to Vincent or DL
Go listen to Smoke Ya Later by TAS and Rusted Over Wet Dreams by Emmure, its not the exact same but the songs format is the same, like they both talk in the beginning with the dubbed over voice and shit. And personally, they lyrics in this song is okay, but Emmure's R2Deepthroat I think is way better than this song, thats just my opinion.

Haha fucking faggot ass Hairyballsack... you must get your name from TAS's nuts since you seem to be on theirs a bunch. As far as the two songs. R2deepthroat's 100x better than this song. And how does me having a different opinion than you being a pussy? You sound like a whiny little bitch to me personally "OMG HE LIKES EMMURE OVER TAS" go cry yourself to sleep you fucking faggot. And btw I live 6 hours from Chicago in Louisville, KY you wanna bring your pathetic ass down here. I will gladly murder you.
I love the tones in this song, especially in the solo before the last stanza. Certified badass for sure. Album as a whole isn't fantastic but there definitely are some rockin songs.
Don’t believe the hype
The cd is mad good, don't listen to aaron.
LMAO.
Wow, I didn't even read the last part, way too fucking early.
This song is a shot at Emmure for mimicking the Acacia Strain sound.
huh thats pretty interesting howd you find that out kyleemm?
lol @ them infusing internet memes into their songs
"vanflip times a thousand no care ever"
this song is about emmure copying them i love emmure but i love acacia strain SO much more and emmure is pathetic for doing that i have to say
Vincent siad the whole album was about someone who just hated everything.
