I learnt a new word from the lyrics Perseverate: repeat or prolong an action, thought, or utterance after the stimulus that prompted it has ceased. e.g. "they perseverate under stress" What a great word! Thanks Noah Kahan & TheAmazingVic for putting up the lyrics!
Here's the lyrics! You're weak on the surface You speak when you're nervous And all the wrong words unite in your head You can't stand the space in your bed So you shake in the darkness You break like an artist And all your big plans are small the next day You cannot wait to throw them away You perseverate And the truth might be a million miles away Hide your secrets, disguise your weakness And lose yourself inside your busy head Burn your bridges and leave no witnesses All alone inside your busy head Your busy head You sleep in the moment, but dream like a poet And all your good grace, like faded tattoos You spend your days in wait for bad news So you perseverate And the truth might be a million miles away Hide your secrets, disguise your weakness And lose yourself inside your busy head Burn your bridges and leave no witnesses All alone inside your busy head Going nowhere fast enough to tell a lie Give yourself an alibi You've been gone lately Stand upon your peace of mind You're bound to fall if you take your time 'Cause we're all waiting And you can step alone into the abyss Find a home on the edge of it And be defined by its presence By its size and its message You can move along through the dark And when you wonder where you are You'll be proud of your weakness So, busy head, just keep breathing, oh So, busy head, just keep breathing So, busy head, just Hide your secrets, disguise your weakness And lose yourself inside your busy head Burn your bridges and leave no witnesses All alone inside your busy head You're all alone inside your busy head You're all alone inside your busy head

I'm about to do my finals and I swear I've listened to this song already twice and I'm happy all at once for no reason. I just want to run in a green field with the breeze touching my hair and the sun kissing my skin. Just being thoughtless. I love your songs, I love every single song you do. How do you do this? How is this possible? I freaking love you. Even my future husband loves your songs and I could just sit down and let everything go while listening to your voice. Thank you for giving people such melodious voice and good music. THANK YOU AND NEVER EVER STOP DOING THIS.

If I could go back in time to the first time I heard this song, I would have sent this song to my Uncle.. Discovering a letter after his recent passing.. he would have had this song on repeat just like I have..
I found this guy last December when Spotify recommended his song "Mess". Even know I couldn't really relate to the lyrics at all at the time I just loved the song. Fast forward about 8 months and I needed some new music to listen too after listening to the same 150 songs all quarantine. I decided to listen to the rest of his album and I'm so happy I did but at the same time, I'm mad I didn't do it 8 months ago. Quarantine has been a rough ride mentally. This song reminds me to just keep moving forward and things will get better.

The first ever song i listened to of yours was false confidence... that song spoke to me in ways and now this song WOW... just this is my favourite song atm. Its soo good.
First time I listened to this, I teared up. His songs feel like they are talking to you as an individual. The odds of him coming to my country are microscopic so hopefully one day I’ll be able to go to him and finally experience him live .
hi.. your music does wonders to my soul., i have never felt this way just listening to a song and its an amazing feeling, its like im in another world but a good one so i thank you so much.
How do you're songs always seem to show up at the right moments? I really needed this one. I love your songs so much. They speak to me on such a deep level and I could listen to your voice all day
The song you make are life changing, you might get this a lot but the help change my life and no doubt they will change someone else's. But thanks for making this music and letting us listen to these song you create.
Lyrics : "Busyhead" You're weak on the surface You speak when you're nervous And all the wrong words seem right in your head You can't stand the space in your bed So you shake in the darkness You break like an artist And all your big plans are small the next day You cannot wait to throw them away You perseverate And the truth might be a million miles away Hide your secrets, disguise your weakness And lose yourself inside your busy head Burn your bridges and leave no witnesses All alone inside your busy head Your busy head You sleep in the moment, but dream like a poet And all your good grace, like faded tattoos You spend your days in wait for bad news So you perseverate And the truth might be a million miles away Hide your secrets, disguise your weakness And lose yourself inside your busy head Burn your bridges and leave no witnesses All alone inside your busy head Going nowhere fast enough to tell a lie Give yourself an alibi You've been gone lately Stand upon your peace of mind You're bound to fall if you take your time 'Cause we're all waiting And you can step alone into the abyss Find a home on the edge of it And be defined by its presence By its size and its message You can move along through the dark And when you wonder where you are You'll be proud of your weakness So, busy head, just keep breathing, oh So, busy head, just keep breathing So, busy head, just Hide your secrets, disguise your weakness And lose yourself inside your busy head Burn your bridges and leave no witnesses All alone inside your busy head You're all alone inside your busy head You're all alone inside your busy head

Aw this was amazing... feel sad tonight, not getting anything right and not doing the work I should do, but making up a million stories in my head and head feels sooooo scattered :( but this song kind of made me happy again now.
like... I'm supposed to study all the different types of viruses and I just hate everything real lately... like my head basically lives in Hogwarts and I can do anything :P the picture on his cover is like what I think of the whole time, flying away over mountains away from real problems then bam, failed the module again. uggg. anyway, I'll go to bed now, maybe I will be able to work when I wake up.
