Lyrics:
When you’re gone I feel alone again
The voices cannot hold my hand
They keep me company at very best
Distract me from my loneliness
Maybe I’m just an anomaly
Even my demons have their families
Truly something must be wrong with me
To need you as much as I do
I was never meant to win
I was never meant to win
I was never meant to win
Shut up!
Here’s the reigns
Take ahold of me
Please don’t let me go
You do the talking
Sew up my mouth if I can’t keep it closed
There’s a dog barking right around the block
And a big ol’ whistle blow
Run for it
I’ll keep em occupied for you
Cause I love you, I love you so
Left me hangin at the station
But you’ll be back for me soon
I’m ‘bout to die
Yet the only thing I find i'm worried about is you
Something tells me you aren’t coming
Guess that I’m truly doomed
I’m 'bout to die
Yet the only thing I find I’m worried about is you
I’m 'bout to die
Yet the thing on my mind seems to nearly be nothing but you
I overhear your brain when it’s close to mine
Oh, I know that we’re not the same
My heart’s on the line
I’m just a pawn in your game
Not your partner in crime
And you’re slowly killing me
Taking your time
You’re slowly killing me
Taking your time
You’re slowly killing me
Taking your- (I was never meant to win)
You’re slowly killing me
Taking your- (I was never meant to win)
You’re slowly killing me
And yet I don’t mind (You were never meant to win)
You’re slowly killing me
But please take your time

"I'm just a pawn in your game, not your partner in crime" is such a strong line, and i relate so hard to it it hurts

“I'm 'bout to die”
“Yet the only thing I find I'm worried about is you”
“I'm 'bout to die”
“Yet the thing on my mind seems to nearly be nothing but you”
That hits HARD.
This song reminds me of someone I miss dearly to my heart and I find so much comfort in a song that reminds me of me and them.
I love you Henry and don’t you forget that.

God DAMN! Madilyn, you're out here curing everyone's seasonal depression with this EP.

I love how as the song becomes more frantic, the font goes from orderly and small to huge, constantly moving scribbles that reflect the state of mind of the singer.

My daughter just suggested I give this a listen. I must admit, I’ve never heard anything like this. It’s own genre. Unique to definition. Very cool

Goosebumps. Manic singing Madilyn was not what I was expecting. I love that middle part so so much, like a panic attack, then followed by that super serene "taking your time" bit. You're seriously killing it!

if i could make animatics and didn’t abandon projects so frequently, i would so make an animatic of this

My favorite part is probably from 2:25 on. Because firstly the font of the "killing me" changing is just genius. Because it isn't reflected in the singing, it feels like a thought that isn't spoken out loud. It's the violent screams that aren't allowed to leave your head. And then when the tension already is building because of that, the "I was never meant to win" comes in at 2:29. And the dissonance of it is just perfect. It feels so defeated. And then at 2:39 it's getting taken on the next level. The tune takes over. It's not just a thought anymore, not just a random realisation, but now you truly understand with all your being. And during that turmoil, that hurt in your head you just look at the hand hitting you repeatedly, almost apathetically. It's perfection, even though it's about such negative emotions.

You know I could have lived never knowing madilyn mei's songs and that would have been a tragedy. How many talented people do I not know???

This better blow up, this is literally one of those songs the animators will eat up.

Everyone's talking about that middle part, and yes it's good. But I feel like 2:25 to the end of the song is really the gem of this. The defeat in the "I was never meant to win" being repeated over the song while the goofy music plays in the background to juxtapose it paints a sharp picture - sharp in the way a slap to the face would be. I also like the imagery of a clown with the somewhat circus-esque music to show how much of a clown she felt for letting herself be so close to this person.

Id love a song with the energy from 00:45 to the end of the chorus the whole way through. Raw, screaming emotion and loudness.

My first premier from Madilyn Mei and so glad this is the one, it's a MASTERPIECE. Especially the contrast of the huge messy writing and flashing colours in this video compared to the earlier songs in the album, it just makes it hit ten times harder

the manic bit here speaks to me like few other songs ever have. the sound, the lyrics, the whole energy...this song GETS me, and it sounds amazing too
