Liner Notes

linerally this is the 3rd song

this song is about the shadows that are cast on mountains (or myself when standing in the mirror) meaning when the stage lights are down and no one is watching me whats happening what am i doing am i still algood being sober (in this song no "i seem to want to float round this town tonight) meaning i wanna be high and explore this town) (i didnt i stayed sober the whole time somehow)

Lyrics

do you see it
the way it casts itself upon all
like a curtain pull true colours revealed and all

and all i see around me is purple faces
on the mountains and in my mirror
i dont think i could hold anyone dearer

im choking out the old me
someone i rather not be
my addiction is real i cannot sit still
im trying my best trying my best oh yes

oh im looking around im looking around
somebody please come and hold me down
cause i seem to want
to float round this town tonight

and all i see around me is purple faces
on the mountains and in my mirror
i dont think i could hold anyone dearer

oh i feel so contained by this yearning in my brain
its making me feel some way, this way, that way

i feel i mean the least to the ones that mean the most to me

I heard this and I thought about Mac Miller for some reason... Your experssion is straight up, geeked up drifter seeking the nearest landing strip... Thanks for sharing, laid back early 90's late 80's pop music with teaked out video.

brings back high school memories of playing sick so i could skip school and instead drop acid in my bedroom. the music fills the bill of providing a backdrop and rhythmic drive for the music, but also gives a precarious imbalance to the visions in solitude, i like the smooth, careful vocals that glide through these purple mountains and mirrors.
