Safe to say this is a song that I've waited for, and it was worth ever minute. Bless Matt and the world for letting me find his music when I needed it the most

Lyrics: I've been caught in the words I've been walking for miles I've been walking in circles I don't want to escape I just want to be lost 'Cuz you know me like that And I can never decide if I want to be any particular person There's a solemn breeze and it's whispering things that I don't want to hear So I disassociate until I'm separate from my body And I shelter in the words I never said Until I'm finally convinced that you hate me All because I can't be rational Until I'm finally convinced that I'm crazy All because I can't be rational I've been caught in the words I've been walking for miles I've been walking on purpose I don't want to explain I just want to be lost 'cuz you know me like that And I can never decide if I want to be any particular person There's a solemn breeze and it's whispering things that I don't want to hear So I disassociate until I'm separate from my body And I shelter in the words I never said Until I'm finally convinced that you hate me All because I can't be rational Until I'm finally convinced that I'm crazy All because I can't be rational And all this confusion is just an illusion It's borrowing time Becoming a nuisance It's not like I'm waiting On someone to save me 'Cuz everyone's tired but I'm too impatient Until I'm finally convinced that you hate me All because I can't be rational Until I'm finally convinced that I'm crazy All because I can't be rational

You dont have fans, you have a family. Full body chills, good God you have such a heavenly voice. It's like my ears are smoking a cigarette in the best way possible

[@savannahleeross7373]

This is a perfect description that I would have never thought of! I just discovered Matt! Way late to the game, but I am in awe of every single song he has❤

[@nicolettecruz8435]

It’s amazing how he can put all these complicated feelings into beautiful songs, so talented

[@TheDetroitKind]

Most underrated musician today.❤

This song is so relatable... exactly what I needed right now

[@luketanttari9001]

Matt Maeson is actually a leader in music and thought. He may not even realise what an impact he has upon music lovers and musicians all over the world. I am from Australia and have been loving every song he has put out for years now. Keep up the great work.

[@clueless_cutie]

Heard this for the first time in DC when Matt and Smiley played at the 9:30 club. You know a song hits deep when it manages to make a sold out show quiet. Loved the show, and I look forward to the next time he's in the DC area.

[@cuponoodles7541]

I have BPD and I relate to this song so much. This song is how I feel alot of the time.

Please don’t ever stop with the music. It’s the only thing saving us right now.

[@KandyCastle]

I was scammed for $500 the night you played at the BlueStone and I cried for over 2 hours because I wanted nothing more then to see you play live. Your music helped me through the darkest days of my life and I just want you to know how lucky we are to be able to experience such an amazing soul that pours his heart and emotion into every song. Thank you Matt and I hope I’m able to make it to a show in the near future

[@sammae4254]

Matt if you see this, I want you to know that your music has had a huge impact on me throughout high school. Listening to yoir songs helped me cope with and begin to heal from trauma, and begin to accept myself the way I am. You have made me feel less alone.

[@junebee5128]

Oh my gosh I love it. Listened loud to it in the dark with my eyes closed. Beautiful. So moving.

[@efrainmercado9304]

Matt, you can't even imagine how much I love your music. When I heard tribulation for the first time I said to myself: He is extremely great and my mind hasn't changed a bit. I love you dude!

[@stephaniecox9591]

I feel EXACTLY the same

This song means so much to me, Matt’s songs are deeply touching, damn.

[@ambercarpenter7573]

Matt, you take every feeling ive felt and you sing them and it makes me eager to wake up every day. I love your music and your beautiful way with words. You take all my pain and turn it into beauty. I turn that radio up and let your voice soothe my tears. Thank you so much for your amazing gift of sounds.

[@Lyd_i_a]

This song describes a feeling I've felt for SO long but never knew how to put words to it. There's something really magical about Matt's songwriting.

[@johnduvall7069]

All of you should treat yourselves to a Matt Maeson concert. He's incredible live.

[@AshlyAnn91]

Just bought my tickets for his upcoming Seattle show. I didn’t have the money for it. It didn’t matter. I figured it the fuck out. I’ve never needed to see someone so badly. He touches me on a level that no other musician has. I didn’t even know that level of emotional depth existed inside of me.

[@nayyypaige]

I seriously love EVERY song he puts out! 😍

[@laxggms23]

He doesn’t have one bad song, every song he creates is absolutely amazing.

[@caitlyn2580]

I've been listening to you for about 7-8 yrs at this point. I have borderline personality disorder, and I relate to these lyrics so hard it brought tears to my eyes. Over the last year, I pushed my very loving boyfriend over the edge, convinced myself he hated me and acted on those beliefs... until I ruined out entire relationship. Now we're apart, we don't speak, and I miss him all day every day. I put myself in this position. I cause my own pain, always trying to sort through the trauma of my life. Thank you for your music.

[@abbashannah03]

Matt Maeson is my Favorite artist of all time. I have never connected so deeply to music in my life. Ive never heard a bad song from him!!!!

[@mikewilliams9286]

Every time Matt releases a new song, I think it can't be better than the last, and I'm usually wrong. This man's trajectory is straight up! Fantastic artist!

[@jackalynnicole21]

I feel your every words Matt. Thank you for not being weak and owning your faults and weaknesses. The one person who I cared enough for finally made it click for me …. My irrationality that is. Today he remains feeling like all this is a cop-out. “A perfect cop-out” he said. Like you mean so perfect that it’s actually rational if you’d let me explain who I am. The what’s the whys. The old me, the lost in between while seeking the balance me, and the tired mw from having so many versions of me

[@Liz-S89]

Sitting in front of a bonfire, listening to some of Matts music looking at the stars…such a vibe🤙🏽

As a sufferer of BPD, I used these lyrics to describe my feelings much of the time to my therapist. The first time I heard this song it brought me to tears, as I finally felt heard by someone. Thank you, Matt.

[@Horlianz]

Your music is just hitting all the right spots. From the choice of instruments, to your voice, the background voices. You are truly a special artist and i relate to your music. In todays age and with todays popular music that happens rarely, so finding you was a true blessing. May you be blessed with good health and a happy life.

I’ve loved your music since Tribulation, it was my favorite then and it even is still. I love it when a song stays with you like that. The acoustic is untouchable; timeless. I love this new one dude.

LYRICS : I've been caught in the weight I've been walking for miles I've been walking in circles I don't wanna be saved I just wanna be lost cause you know me like that and I can never decide if I wanna be any particular person there's a solemn breeze and it's whispering things that I don't wanna hear so i disa-sso-ci-ate until im separate from my body and I shelter in the words I never said until I finally convinced that you hate me or because I can't be rational until I finally convinced that I'm crazy or because I can't be rational ... I've been caught in the weight I've been walking for miles I've been walking on purpuse I don't wanna explain I just wanna be lost cause you know me like that and I can never decide if I wanna be any particular person there's a solemn breeze and it's whispering things that I don't wanna hear so i disa-sso-c-ate until im separate from my body and I shelter in the words I never said until I finally convinced that you hate me or because I can't be rational until I finally convinced that I'm crazy or because I can't be rational ... now it's confusion it's just an illusion it's ¿ borrowing ? time becoming a nuisance it's not like i'm waiting on someone to save me cause everyone is tired but I'm too impatient until I finally convinced that you hate me or because I can't be rational until I finally convinced that I'm crazy or because I can't be rational

[@bensnyder2625]

Ok!!! I figured it out First it's" there's a solemn breeze and it's whispering things I don't wanna hear And the second one is " I shelter in the words I never said. (Got it from his tiktok

[@ThePartiallyGamer]

Thanks so much! :) some corrections I'd like to make: line 1- I think he meant weight (like weight of a feeling, same thing for the 2nd time he says this line) line 3- 'in' circles line 7- 'any' particular person line 8- silent reason maybe? or solemn reason(s)? line 36- I think he says "Becoming a nuisance". (Note: I just pulled this from listening closely so I may be wrong)
