Trust Me

Here, you can hear that same weariness from constantly putting on a mask: smiles ‘for the camera,’ the usual ‘everything's fine’ and the role of a convenient backdrop. You just want to breathe out and be yourself - not perfect, not photoshopped, but alive. The song is full of quiet requests and timid determination: to stop going round in circles, to stop lying to yourself and those around you. And there is strength in this fragility - as if admitting ‘I'm hurting’ is the first step towards finally feeling better.
