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.
Everytime you messed with my head
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine
Because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.
Memories, they fall apart whenever you're inside my head.
Take my tears they say alot since you're the one who put them there.
When I needed you the most you were, nowhere to be found.
But I still hung on just hoping for my love to come around.
Everytime you messed with my head
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine
because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.
I miss those times when things were simple and your heart was mine.
I just don't understand how you could throw it all away.
When I needed you the most you were, nowhere to be found.
But I still hung on just hoping for my love to come around.
Everytime you messed with my head
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine
because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.
"I look up at the sky
It's a bird, it's a plane
Naw it's just me again cryin' in the rain
I cant figure out why I feel so ashamed
You pushed me so hard that I feel so insane
Everytime I cry, you ain't wipe me eyes
When if I was scared, you weren't by my side
The only thing it did was it made me wise
So it's all good 'cause it kept me alive"
When I needed you the most you were, nowhere to be found.
But I still hung on just hoping for my love to come around.
Everytime you messed with my head
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine
because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine
Because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.
Memories, they fall apart whenever you're inside my head.
Take my tears they say alot since you're the one who put them there.
When I needed you the most you were, nowhere to be found.
But I still hung on just hoping for my love to come around.
Everytime you messed with my head
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine
because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.
I miss those times when things were simple and your heart was mine.
I just don't understand how you could throw it all away.
When I needed you the most you were, nowhere to be found.
But I still hung on just hoping for my love to come around.
Everytime you messed with my head
All the things you did and you said
See my scars spell out your name and...you're paralyzing me.
Everytime you left me behind
All these tears are no longer mine

All these tears are no longer mine
because you took it all away and...you're paralyzing me.

I have to admit that I love this song from Tila Tequila. Everytime I hear it, it makes me want to cry 'cause I'm going through something like that with one of my friends. I wish she could see how much she means to me, and how what she says drive me crazy.
