Cover art for A Blank Page Empire lyrics by Further Seems Forever

i always thought this song was about having to live up to what someone before you had done( "I'll always be stopped by the why can't i, why can't i be you") and not being able to do it ("digging all day long/ can't even seem to make a scratch") but in the end realizing that they weren't the expectations of others, but your own expectations ("I am my only devil").
