Burns In The Barns
Burning Paranoia and Jazz-Infused Despair: Major Kami's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
Here comes the paranoia
Introduction of feelings of paranoia
Here comes the jealousy
Introduction of feelings of jealousy
Unnerving me
Sensations causing discomfort or unease
Spiralling down the rabbit hole
Descending into a complex, confusing situation
Flames in the cracks of the pavement
Conflict or trouble represented by flames amidst normalcy
Pulling me to the sky
Feeling pulled towards something greater
I need to sleep
Desire or need for rest
Dont open the doors
Avoiding certain situations or emotions
Lash out climb to the walls
Reacting strongly, possibly with aggression, to circumstances
Crawling under my skin bedbugs everywhere
Feeling overwhelmed by discomfort, like bedbugs crawling under the skin
Tingling, numbness, migraines, shame
Physical and emotional discomfort, guilt or embarrassment
Shame I can't be like you
Regret for not being similar to someone else
Shame we can't save me
Feeling helpless about personal salvation or improvement
I need to sleep
Reiteration of the need for rest
Sleep
Emphasis on the need for sleep
Caught in a haystack where the bales catch fire
Feeling trapped in a problematic situation that intensifies
Burns in the barns
Repeated emphasis on escalating troubles represented by burning haystacks
Burns in the barns
-Caught in a haystack where the bales catch fire
-Burns in the barns
-Madness left all alone
Feeling abandoned or isolated due to mental instability
John Coltrane to cleanse my soul a saxophone, rare devil's beat
Using music as an escape, but facing resistance and mental turmoil
Soaring highs smash to my feet
-I kick those bales but the bales bite back
-My brain a prisoner under attack
-Two children raised with love
Referencing a loving upbringing and connection to music
Jazz flowing through our blood
-You shot up through the stars
Feeling left behind or confined while others progress
You shot up through the stars
-I'm left here behind bars
-With pills
Dependency on medication
Windows that dont open
Feeling trapped, unable to find an escape route
Crazy
State of being mentally unstable or irrational
Please dont leave me on these rails
Pleading not to be abandoned in a desolate state
Its such a lonely ending
Loneliness as an inevitable conclusion
Shadows inside my head
Internal struggles or conflicts within thoughts
Voices speaking Kerouac
Referencing voices reminiscent of Kerouac's writings
Inside this addled brain
Describing a confused or troubled mind with conspiring thoughts
Voices conspire
-Coulsdon tracks are calling me
References to a place and a challenging, silent adversary
Snowy silent enemy
-Snowy silent enemy
Reiteration of a silent, challenging opponent
Take me
Submission or request to be taken away from the current situation
Dont open the doors
Reiterating the need to avoid certain situations and reactions
Lash out climb to the walls
-Crawling under my skin bedbugs everywhere
-Tingling, numbness, migraines, paranoia
Physical and emotional discomfort with intensified paranoia
Caught in a haystack where the bales catch fire
Repetition of being trapped in a problematic situation represented by burning haystacks
Burns in the barns
-Burns in the barns
-Caught in a haystack where the bales catch fire
-Burns in the barns
-Burns in the barns
-Pulling me up to the sky
Feeling pulled towards something greater
Lash out climb to the walls
Reiteration of reacting strongly to circumstances and the need for rest
I need to sleep
-Caught in a haystack where the bales catch fire
Repeated emphasis on escalating troubles represented by burning haystacks
Burns in the barns
-Burns in the barns
-Caught in a haystack where the bales catch fire
-Burns in the barns
-I need to sleep
Reiteration of the need for sleep due to escalating mental turmoil
I need
-I need to sleep
-I kick those bales but the bales bite back
Continued feeling of being attacked or confined mentally
My brain a prisoner under attack
