LYRICS:
(First Verse)
I start this off staring at a blank page
An open office document
A blinking cursor
Passing days
Without a single word
Some say it's absurd
Like I float along a stream of words unsaid
Choosing not to cast my net
But I spend so long questioning myself
If this isn't right
Then does that mean I failed?
Will my melodies ever live up
Will my metaphors be profound enough
Will I ever outdo myself
The ceiling gets higher and higher
It's harder and harder to shatter
And when I fall
I fall worse than I ever did before
Evaluating the damage no I just don't understand it
Conflicted my the very air I breathe
A love with hatred laced between
(Pre-Chorus)
You can see it in my eyes
A child's spark light up the night
Constant search for approval
Suffocated by refusal
Devouring my skull
But never feeling full
(Chorus)
Oh dear I don't wanna be a burden
But could you please be a little more concerned with
The overactive mind of a believer
The toxic thoughts of an overachiever
Oh dear if only you could feel it
The crippling fear of being deserted
You can't touch the heat of this fever
The toxic thoughts of an overachiever
(Second Verse)
I start this off a little confused
Writers block doesn't exist
It's not a word I'm supposed to use
Because it's all in my mind
A parasite I'm supposed to find
But sometimes
Well most times
It's so hard to define
So I pour a couple drinks
Getting drunk on gasoline
Fire pulses in my veins
I'm sick of waiting for the day
That courage overtakes my brain
For someone to say it's ok
I've lived my whole life afraid
It's time for me to be brave
To embrace a forest
That's so dark and unknown
Because no great adventurer has a paved path to roam
They pave as they go
Disappointed faces leaving poisoned bread crumb traces
I'm not taking the bait
Let them rot in their place
(Pre-Chorus)
I deserve to be alright
I deserve to sleep at night
I'm my closest friend
I remind myself again
Better treat her well
Cuz she's with me till the end
(Chorus)
Oh dear I don't wanna be a burden
But could you please be a little more concerned with
The overactive mind of a believer
The toxic thoughts of an overachiever
Oh dear if only you could feel it
The crippling fear of being deserted
You can't touch the heat of this fever
The toxic thoughts of an overachiever
(Outro)
Sometimes I forget the feeling
Of every single nerve tingling
Better than any lovers’ touch
I've created tears of pain and burns of lust
I've created a forest a safe place for myself that others have found
Some attempt to destroy and others feed the ground
Fertilize my mind with melodies and rhymes
A sorcerer of time take you back to the night
When you pondered your death when somebody left when you lie away broken cause your head is unkept and let me remind you
That everything is temporary
You and I are temporary
And this feeling that's so scary
Someday you'll realize that thoughts so heavy
Don't mean you're unsteady
But that you're only getting ready to say nice to meet you to somebody you never knew
You

I think one of the biggest reasons your songs resonate with us is because you perfectly capture the dual nature of what it means to be 'not alright' in the way you write. It's easily explained through words like "I'm not okay", "I'm sad", "I'm afraid"... But it's never enough to show how we really feel. The psychology behind all this shows there's a war going on in all of us, and you've painted such a beautiful picture of it. Thank you Faith.

Arcile so true.

[@HERO-dz3cc]

Antidote is probably the song ik that I can relate to the most EVERY lyrics in antidote is my story the mirror the " what have I done " part everything and it helped me grow to be a better me because all I ever thought was " I'm not perfect I wish I was then I wouldn't be lonely " but my mother told me no one is perfect she admits she isn't she putt it iwtn a way i could never putt in a drawing with music or anything. And I draw how I feel either it's sad, happy or even insane. But your right it is she is a amazing artist with music and art and knows how to tell people what others may be feeling.

You will win this. Just give it time. In time it'll all be better. You are worth everything. People do care about you. Don't give up. Don't let it win. Don't let it into your head. Don't worry.

I completely forgot about this song until it popped up in my recommend today. I listened to this constantly when it first came out. Was really depressed in high school and it helped me feel a bit better about myself during that time. Just listened again and made me cry, it's still accurate for me in a way, but I've gotten so much better. Feels strange to be where I am now when I didn't think I would make it through highschool before

Are you still hanging in there? Easy to say things will get better, but besides the many reasons you felt / feel that way, i hope you don't mind this thought: in the universe there probably isn't anyone like you. There may also never be anyone exactly like you, ever. That's profound. Also, even though it may feel as though your loved ones don't care much for you, they are probably battling their own turmoil, and their love is not shining thru. Shine your love on them, and maybe together you can make it to the other side. All the best of my love.

I saw this ages ago, but how bright the video was made me feel horrible. Even the video with lyrics done by someone was a bit bright for me. Then everything fell apart as I started GCSEs, and my emotional stability dropped to nil. My girlfriend linked me this video and even if I do have to have the cover closed on my phone with my headphones in, it‘s a massive help. The line “I’m sick of waiting for courage to overtake my brain” was a real slap in the face, but it’s got me back on my feet and I’m trying to fix whatever mess I’m in, from test scores dropping as a result of anxiety to me hitting myself in the head. *Thankyou. So much. You really have changed my life.*

You'll learn, you'll grow, and you'll take steps at a time as moments pass by. So even if you don't think you're much, please, please be your own best friend when things hurt.

[@OneAvidGamer]

I first listened to this song roundabouts when it came out. I was in secondary school at the time. I was beginning to feel low and some of the lyrics resonated with me. Especially the feeling of having overachieved and set my own bar too high, dealing with everyone’s expectations. I dealt with writers block, both in terms of the stories i tried to create, but also in terms of my life and what i was going to do with it. I didn’t know what should happen next, I felt as though whatever idea I wrote down would be wrong, and that I couldn’t get the next part of my own story right. Now I listen to this in my final year of university, and I almost cried when i realised how much more it resonated with me. The ceiling has gotten higher and higher. And it’s certainly much harder to shatter than ever before. I don’t like to burden my friends with my concerns , but i want my friends and family to care and to feel valued by them. I told myself it’s just in my mind and not an actual problem. I drowned my problems afraid to face them, drinking to the point of addiction, and then going further. I destroyed myself for the last year and a half, lost multiple relationships and caused my mental state and studies to suffer greatly. I had been hurting myself for 4 at this point, and never said a word to anyone. I didn’t want to burden anyone, i was happy to listen to peoples issues and be there for them, to share their burden, but felt like I had to do it on my own. I thought it was weak for me to break under the strain. That was until last year when a friend told me it was okay and I broke down and cried. I told him everything. For the first time in my life I had someone to talk to. Now I am beginning to open up about things and beginning to accept my self more for who I am. I have sought out medical help, and try to be honest with myself instead of lying and pretending everything is ok. As a result, I haven’t hurt myself in over a year now. This whole process I’ve realised is as the song says; I am getting ready to meet the real me. Honestly i thought I connected strongly to this song before. But now after three years of going my own path, just to come back and find the song mirroring me at every path. It was nearly too much. Now every song about feeling depressed want’s to get the message across that we aren’t alone, and that others have shared the same experiences. But this is a first for me, where just by listening to the lyrics, not only can I tell what the writer has gone through, but I feel as though I KNOW what they have gone through. Now of course I don’t know the writer, nor their experiences, but to me it was a powerful moment all the same. To anyone struggling, stay strong and please please please find someone you can trust, and you can talk to. People care, they always do. It might save your life, because it saved mine. :)

“Oh dear, I don’t wanna be a burden. But could you please be a little more concerned?” That hits hard. I know I come with a lot of drama and problems and I don’t wanna push that onto someone. But at the same time I don’t have any close friends. It’s hard to form connections and I need so much more than someone asking if I’m okay. I need someone who’s willing to get to know me and actually desires my company.

[@forestlol5984]

As someone who is struggling with panic attacks, anxiety, depression, trauma and my sensory processing disorder… this song helps me so much. It makes me feel less alone, that indeed these panic attacks, these scary feelings- it all temporary, and that I will get through it. I may be suffering, feeling hopeless and alone- but I’m still standing. Those who have read this, remember you’re not helpless or hopeless, you may be suffering and it may be hell for you, but you can get through this, all of this is temporary. This is all temporary no matter how many years you’ve been suffering, because you’re still standing and the fact that you’re still standing will pay off, remember to love yourself. I know saying things like “love yourself” is easier said than done, I get it I’m still working on that. What’s helped me start it in the first place though, is just talking to myself and getting to know me and saying positive things. I know this is all over the place, but I wanna let everyone here know that I love them and I care.

Well, I didn't plan to sob uncontrollably at 4 pm in the middle of my living room with all my cats watching, but here we are.

I can relate to this. I have a very overactive mind and when I try to be an overachiever, it all starts stressful and ends negative

[@leighbennett2796]

This song is so powerful, it gave me chills the first time I actually heard it. There's so much to this song that I can relate to, you put the pain and confusion that blankets my mind into words.

[@leejastal]

I must say that I am amazed at the depth of lyricism contained within each of the songs you have written. They speak to the longing of an overburdened soul. They reach out to bitter ends of the icy tundras of self doubt and despair for a better day. They lead the listener along a path of needles and broken glass, entreating each person who hears to feel what pain it is to walk each day in the shoes of someone who cannot see it within themselves to be beautiful. The speak of a desire for peace and serenity, but also of a never-ending plague of worry and internal chaos. They illustrate the reality of struggle, while illuminating a way to believe that hope is not a falsehood.

You are on point...speaking thoughts of the masses. Relating on s deeper level than most others. Very well done.

Everyone thinks that because your grades are good means you are ok but they dont know how much you hate yourself

Nobody but my sister knows that I self harmed a little

[@madmanrusketh2181]

This song has been with me for a while, the message it conveys reminded me that I am responsible for looking after myself not just the others around me. It helped me push out though and past my situation and respect myself once again. I never thought something as simple as chorus to a piano could be so life changing. Thank You

I am amazed. For the first time a song has touched my heart so deep. I can relate. I am looking forward to the day I can say 'Nice to meet you' to, me. I have created my own personal place as well, but someone always digs their way through. But, you just have to stay strong and fight it. You know you're better, you're strong, don't let things take you down. I have been treated like nothing, but I know I am something. So people who are struggling, take a deep breath. Look at yourself in the mirror. And say, 'I am beautiful, I am strong, I am wonderful. I am me, and that's all I wanna be.' Don't let anyone bring you down. Pull yourself high above them. You can light up darkness in just a second.

So happy your making more music. Easy to relate to and full of emotion! The video was great too!

[@Ventriforrest]

I will never be able to put into words of how much I love Faith’s music. I remember listening to her when I was younger and even though I don’t listen to her as much anymore, her melodies have such a place in my heart. Her lyrics and melodies have brought me so much comfort and she made me feel understood. It was like someone was telling me, “I understand, It’s okay.” And that brought me to tears. thank you faith, you have given me and others something I’ll forever cherish.

[@melodyman2113]

It really shows how hard you worked to get this good, keep it up!

[@adrianalou6727]

"I deserve to be alright" " I deserve to sleep at night". Every good person trying to make it through life and the struggles never give up they deserve it. She deserves it and I myself am beginning to realise I need it too

[@SashaBeary]

Such an amazing artist! I especially love the outro. "everything is temporary," I try to remind myself of this every time I'm facing something that feels like it will never end and that I'll never get through it, that my whole life is going to end because of it. Maybe this song will keep that reminder in my head It's hard to find songs like this to relate to so strongly, and I'm so very grateful for you and your music

[@Sparkleanium]

OMG I AM IN LOVE with your work. This is so me. I just..I'm in tears. Thank you for this amazing song!

[@emilywild1992]

[@richiev9941]

Wow...just wow. So deep. Amazing the way you are able to express the internal struggle so many go through. Thank you for giving so many of us a voice. Simply beautiful.

[@Gloosch]

This song helps me so much, the melody has been stuck in my head in the best way!! thank you from my heart to yours!

[@dakotagarcia7781]

my most listened to song of 2020, and I'm glad.

[@artemis754]

This hits me right in my heart. People see my as an outcast, but also someone with a creative point of view. Online people look up to me. But no one knows the toxic thoughts that plague my mind. I have everything, people would be jealous of me, but i cant bring to love me like others love me.

[@sappy_]

WHY IS THIS SO FLIPPING GOOD!?

[@frozensatsuma666]

I’m not entirely sure how I found your channel and music, pretty sure it was pure chance. That being said, I cannot tell you how much every single word hits my soul in the deepest of ways. I dunno what pain spawns such beautiful music, but please keep sharing it with the world!

[@JayofallTrades]

You'll never know how much I needed this song. My mind goes to the toxic thoughts of a people pleaser. But every other lyrics are the same.

[@dejavu2171]
