circle the drain
by
Soccer Mommy
In this introspective track, Soccer Mommy delves into the struggles of maintaining a facade of stability while grappling with inner turmoil. The lyrics express a yearning for calmness and stability ("calm like the soft summer rain") juxtaposed against an overwhelming sense of despair and mental fatigue. The recurring metaphor of "circle the drain" symbolizes feeling trapped in a cycle of depression and helplessness, despite external conditions appearing fine. The singer's attempt to remain strong for loved ones contrasts sharply with her private battles, highlighting the isolating nature of mental health struggles. The imagery of mold spreading through her brain underscores the pervasive and consuming nature of these feelings. 🌧️💔 #MentalHealth #InnerStruggles #FacadeOfStability #EmotionalTurmoil
