11/8/11

Not only does this song have killer dynamics and trance-like timing per what we've come to know and love about Mutemath, but it's got quite the message.

Also: note the keytar.



The crowds roll by and I'm falling in
Everyone's invincible, but it's just pretend
And we all freaked out, what a shame
When only tears know how to remind us we all break the same
We all break the same

Everything we've built could be our demise
It's the sticks and stones that wear us down that often save our lives
And we all freaked out, what a shame
When only tears know how to remind us we all break the same
We all break the same

The different stars tonight will somehow fade the same
And all the tears we cry tell us we're made the same
And when we fall aside, let's hope we fall in place
We built our different lives, but they all break the same

Break the same

Different worlds and different hearts
Different souls and different parts
We all, we all break the same

~Break the Same
Mutemath, Mutemath

This feels extra good today. Truisms. Lately it's felt like so much is worthless, I'm this angry, jaded version of me.



"Well if you're in from the start
Then we're in this together
If you're not then I'll have to
Take on this world
Cause this world can't take on me
I won't let go
I feel so lost without it
Crawl down my throat
I just can't think about it now

If it's your turn to live
Then it's my turn to give it up

And if you drop the bomb
Then I'll pick it up

I'm afraid to be
(I'd stick it out by my heart can't hack it)
Just an example of inconsistency
I feel like I'm jaded
I've given it all I have to give
Burnt out, frustrated
I feel like I'm an enemy of the world
"
