peaxhes I'm so glad you're making music! Bear Ghost was one of mine and my boyfriend's favorite bands and I was so crushed to learn about everything that went down. I love that its still a similar sound because it was so unique and I loved it. I definitely need more!

about

A song about leaving an abusive relationship.

lyrics

I am a little bit freaked out
I stand precariously
I can't pretend that I'm concrete
This weight is crumbling me
I can't be counted on (to be dandy)
I am nobody but me
I stand to lose it all (if I don't shape up)
And say I'm crazy, oh

I ban the voices
I can't believe their lies
When the mind is aching, wishing
For the strength to leave the hive

I'm sick
We're headed toward demise, yeah
I'm sick (and tired)
Of running from alone
I'm sick
Of fighting for my mind

I feel calamity whisper
I think we're going insane
I can't remember what's toxic
When this pumps the blood in our veins
I am the villainy (now)
I stab the enemy (in the eyes)
I vow to never leave (not until I slay)
What makes us crazy

I am your misery
I am anxiety
I sing a melody 'bout the
Things that make us go (hah, hah, hah)
You are a tragedy, I know
But if you face your demons, boy
The truth will set you free

I'm sick
We're headed toward demise, yeah
I'm sick (and tired)
Of running from alone
I'm sick
Of fighting off the hivemind
I'm sick (and tired)
Of fighting for my soul

I'm sick
We're headed toward demise, yeah
I'm sick (and tired)
Of running from alone
I'm sick
Of fighting off the hivemind

You are calamity
I think it's time I kick it alone
