about

The first single off the first installment of the Visitor EP series.

lyrics

The train passed the station and left me standing there alone
it was the furthest point that I had ever been from home
and when I looked to see if there was anyone around
there were plenty of people, but not a soul to be found

What does it mean to be entirely inadequate at every single thing you try?
and the sum of your life, a list of fucking disappointments, not a single thing done right
I am inanimate, an object impermanent

(A bone can only bend so far before it cracks and breaks)

I wandered through the city, totally exposed
forced to bear the weight of the world on broken bones
when I turned to ask if there was anyone to help
there were plenty of people, but not compassion to be felt

What does it mean to be entirely inadequate at every single thing you try?
and the sum of your life, a list of fucking disappointments, not a single thing done right
I am inanimate, an object impermanent

(A bone can only bend so far before it cracks and breaks)

And all we are is flesh and bone.

What does it mean to be so god damn inadequate?
What does it mean to be me?
