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.
You come to question me
And put me on the stand
I deny everything
And lie as fast as I can
Ya ask me 21 questions
And I start to sweating
'Cuz I don't have the answers you need
So you ask me where I was
And I say I can't remember
Then you get mad at me
Boi, you know I love ya
Boi, you know I love ya like
La la la la la la la
But you always talking
Boi, you always talking sounds like
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Don't ask me where I'm going
'Cuz I'll never tell the truth
You said you won't get mad
If I'm honest with you
Ya ask me 21 questions
And I start to sweating
'Cuz I don't have the answers you need
So you ask me where I was
And I say I can't remember
Then you get mad at me
Boi, you know I love ya
Boi, you know I love ya like
La la la la la la la
But you always talking
Boi, you always talking sounds like
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
You coming here talking
Asking me questions
Driving me crazy
And it don't feel like la la la to me
You making me scream
You make me sick
And I just can't handle it
It's blah blah blah to me
And put me on the stand
I deny everything
And lie as fast as I can
Ya ask me 21 questions
And I start to sweating
'Cuz I don't have the answers you need
So you ask me where I was
And I say I can't remember
Then you get mad at me
Boi, you know I love ya
Boi, you know I love ya like
La la la la la la la
But you always talking
Boi, you always talking sounds like
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Don't ask me where I'm going
'Cuz I'll never tell the truth
You said you won't get mad
If I'm honest with you
Ya ask me 21 questions
And I start to sweating
'Cuz I don't have the answers you need
So you ask me where I was
And I say I can't remember
Then you get mad at me
Boi, you know I love ya
Boi, you know I love ya like
La la la la la la la
But you always talking
Boi, you always talking sounds like
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
You coming here talking
Asking me questions
Driving me crazy
And it don't feel like la la la to me
You making me scream
You make me sick
And I just can't handle it
It's blah blah blah to me
