I am a seed buried in earth Praying words muffled by dirt Dirt that slowly suffocates Praying in vain for a single drop of rain To give me life and take my pain |

This song captures perfectly the confusion and frustration of a bipolar low. The familiarity of your surrounding tainted by a heavy feeling that somehow they're all wrong. Yeah I've been down here before But this time Something really isn't right Summer sun hangs smaller Paler in the sky It's like everything I know Is twisted out and wrong The fall sun hanging flatter Lower in the sky There's this confusion about what is real, the joy you felt before or the sorrow you feel now. You scream as you accept what feels overwhelmingly certain, the joy was just a dream... Temporary. Sorrow is the reality... lasting and inevitable. You start to scream Scream and you scream This is not a dream This is how it really is There isn't any other this Is not a dream It doesn't feel like a change of mood, It doesn't feel like you've changed. It feels like everything and everyone else did. Where am I and how did I get here. Scream and you scream How we ended here How we got from then to now Never really followed how We ended here I think this song feels so much like Labyrinth from the The Cure's eponymous album (see my comments there). |

This is how it feels to be in a bipolar low. Everything is the same, but none of it is the same. It’s the same sun in the same sky but it’s not. The sun is cold, and the sky is wrong. Everyone insists that things are the same as they were yesterday or last week when you were happy, but they’re not. They can’t be. How can they not see that it’s all different… not the same at all... any of it. It’s like everyone is gas-lighting you, expecting you to accept their madness. In the end you give in and accept that everything has to have changed or it’s you. This song captures that feeling perfectly. |
