Story behind the song
My interpretation of the song is not being able to find the right words or feelings to get life back on the track it's supposed to be on. While thinking and pondering on this idea, I finally get humble and ask for help. At the same time, I feel as though everything I thought I needed to get off my chest had been stated.
In other words, it's part thinking you failed at getting what you thought was on your mind, off of your mind, and part asking for guidance or help to make things better.
Lyrics
I've been walking around with a smile for the masses
I hide away my soul behind these glasses
Looking through the trees
Life used to come with so much ease
I wrote a song to try to get your attention
Lately everything is on suspension
And when I turn to you
An empty heart is all you see through
Help me if you can
So I can understand
I feel my back is broken
And all the world is a token
everything I wanna say's been spoken
I tried to speak but everything's on mute
Gestures arent much for a substitute
I haven't got a clue
On where to go or who to turn to
I've never been at a loss for words before
But all I hear is the sound of silence
And ever closing doors
