Schur - Neurotica
Let's get it!!!
This is the last song off of my EP, Neurotica.
When I was growing up I experienced mild OCD which manifested itself as very patterned behavior. While this behavior was sometimes prohibitive, it helped me focus my energy on important tasks like practicing guitar or finishing homework. I had a love/hate relationship with it. The entirety of this EP is about that relationship, with this last song outlining a rather common experience I had trying and failing to fall asleep while in high school. Lyrics are below (:
INFINITE LOVE for everyone who has been listening to this project over the past year. It has been a joy to work on and I am quite proud of how it came out! A HUGE thank you to Jeremy Daniels (mixing engineer) and Jack Kennedy (mastering engineer) for their post production work on this EP.
Much love,
Schur
Neurotica
Do it twice and check again
By take five you’re feeling dread
One more time remake the bed
Efficiency is not your friend
Finally laying down
Shame you won’t be sticking ‘round
Get your drink try not to drown
Head back to the room for now bruv
Outta bed for the fifteenth time
Once more I’m gonna lose my mind
Am I choosing to keep moving
If I can’t slow my roll
Hit the lights till it feels just right
Never will so I’m up all night
Am I choosing to keep losing
If I can’t help this feeling
I’m outta luck
Just a one-eyed kid
Who’s half awake when the day breaks now ooo
I’m outta luck
Just a one-eyed kid
Who’s half awake when the day breaks now ooo
Up at seven not so fresh
Brush your teeth then brush again
Now you wonder is today the today
You’ll put these habits all to bed
I’ll sit and watch you try your best
But rest assured I’ll never let you sway
‘Cause your fast clock can make shit pop
Would you ever break without all the thought
You got good licks being repetitive
So why would you wanna change
Just pucker up don’t let it rest
Live your day don’t feel oppressed
And I’ll be at your service serving the world on a plate bruv
Outta bed for the fifteenth time
Once more I’m gonna lose my mind
Am I choosing to keep moving
If I can’t slow my roll
Hit the lights till it feels just right
Never will so I’m up all night
Am I choosing to keep losing
If I can’t help this feeling
I’m outta luck
Just a one-eyed kid
Who’s half awake when the day breaks now ooo
I’m outta luck
Just a one-eyed kid
Who’s half awake when the day breaks now ooo
