about

This song is about the feeling of stopping yourself from crying.

It is also about any kind of suppression anyone might have to enact on their own truth simply for survival or success in a capitalistic patriarchal society.

lyrics

there's something inside
it's too big to hold there
there's something inside
it's too dark in there

if you want to try to understand the way it feels
maybe try to understand a potted plant
that wants to spread its roots

in the morning
i am nothing
i am free

for a moment
i don't know
anything

there's a shadow
in the back of the room
hardly notice that it's there
but it's there
