Jane Doe


These floods of you are unforgiving
Pushing passed me spilling through the banks

And I fall
Faster than light and faster than time
That's how memory works
At least in the dark where I'm searching for meaning
When I'm just searching for something
I want out
Out of every awkward day
Out of every tongue tied loss
I want out
Out of the burdening nightsweats
Out of the rising seas of blood
Lost in you like Saturday nights
Searching the streets with bedroom eyes
Just dying to be saved
Run on girl, run on

Listening to this song, and then looking at the lyrics you can clearly see that it's an emotional roller coaster. The singer, Jacob Bannon, doesn't even sound like he's coherently saying the words, rather expressing the emotional meaning of them.

The song to me is the sound of heartbreak, when you can't go on anymore in the relationship.
