Lyrics:
Take the line out of my head
Repeating itself since I woke up out of bed
Telling me all is either dying or dead
Oh no no no no
I’m hiding the thoughts you probably read on my face
Hiding the fact I feel a little out of place
Hide anymore, I’ll disappear with no trace
Oh no no no no
But I don’t wanna give you too much
Or let you know it’s shaking me up
I only really wanna tell you enough so you know
It’s nothing serious
I know there’s love in every word that you said
Telling me how I had some miles ahead
But when I look out, my feet are on the same ledge
Oh no no no no
And the only thing normal is it’s always so strange
Everyone walking in a million different ways
Where they go, you know I really can’t say
Oh no no no no
But I don’t wanna tell you too much
Or let you know it’s shaking me up
I only wanted to be honest enough so you know
It’s nothing serious
And I’m thinking myself into circles
Even though it doesn’t change a thing
I can’t keep on digging myself into a hole
And I don’t wanna tell you too much
Or let you think it’s shaking me up
I only wanted to be honest enough so you know
It’s nothing serious
About Nothing Serious:
Soaked with the feeling that you’ll never be able to crawl out of the uncomfortable space you’re in, you’ve been there so long that you forget what not being there even feels like. Your brain tells you that you can move in any direction, but your feelings tell you there’s a cliff on all sides. Embarrassed about feeling so paralyzed. Accustomed to feeling isolated. You tell your friends not to worry, it’s nothing serious. – Tim Perry
A bouncy summer jam that questions how real you can be in the context of a summer jam. I worked to give it a boom-box-y sonic quality. It didn't feel right to have it be terribly hi-fi. – Rob Oberdorfer
