WOW! That is really out there. I do not see their songs dealing with mental illness; rather they deal more with personal and spiritual struggles faces in everyday life. Suicide attempt? Really? Are you stuck on Sail? (Which was not dealing with an attempt but managing a passing thought.) Their music is very inspiring and uplifting to me, so maybe we are both looking through our own heart lenses, huh? |

Gotta keep it movin Ya know I feel responsible Ever since I met you I noticed I’m invincible Keeping his music career and his relationship moving in a positive progressive direction because it is his job to do that in his mind, and the relationship he has gives him the confidence to believe he can do things he didn’t realize he could accomplish. I know you like it groovy You know I’m bored with rock and roll Now that I’m improving They say that I have lost it all. He acknowledges her style, and states his dissatisfaction with the music he has been hearing and/or creating in the past, but now that he got his eyes off of all the commercialism and just focused on his passion in his music the quality went up, even though he kind of spit in the face of the status quo of the industry. We’re hanging by the shoestrings The ones we love are holding We’re skin and bones and blue blood It’s where we’re going not where we came from. Your loved ones can hold you back if you focus on pleasing those that are closest to you. However, we are all human. We’re not going to be perfect. Sometimes choices are made tor benefit ourselves even though it doesn’t agree with the opinions of those closest to us. Looking ahead to what can be accomplished instead of dwelling on past failures or on the people that initially gave ineffective guidance. I have your attention cause anything is possible I swear that my intention Is nothing short of probable Approaching things his own way did grab attention because it was effective. Now he believes that his vision of success is a likelihood. You think that I’m conceited But maybe I’m just miserable When he quit taking the advice of the ones closest to him, they got offended and thought he was arrogant in his aspirations and ideas, but they failed to realize his choices were more reactive to his own dissatisfaction, and nothing personal against the people that have tried to help him in the past. The ones that we love Are the ones that we hurt. The ones that cared enough to give guidance in the first place did so because of the love in their hearts. When he followed his own direction, it was hurtful to them. You can’t hurt people that don’t care. |
