This song is about me coming to terms with the fact that everyone is different and that this realisation is cyclical. Like most of my songs, it's not about any one person in particular. It is a collage of feelings and experiences, a patchwork quilt of memories and emotions. Enjoy!

HOW YOU FEEL
It’s a journey
You want to keep in touch
You go from thinking nothing matters to it matters too much
It’s a circle
And you're back at the start
Trying to find the hidden meaning like it’s abstract art
I’ve seen it all before
The clothes left on the floor
But I’m getting closer to
Understanding
How you feel
It's a cycle
A spinning top
Moving from reason to madness is starting to stop
It's a pattern
A recurring theme
Taking you from something easy into something extreme
I've heard it all before
Listening through the door
But I'm getting closer to
Understanding
How you feel
Take a breath
And one step back
There’s a bigger picture here
Down a different track
There’s nothing wrong
In making a mistake
As long as it’s not keeping you awake
