Story behind the song

[Kate's the one on the left] Luke was bored in maths, so he decided he wanted to bulk up on Endorphin's [at the time] original music.  He was greatly under the influence of local all-girl rock band "My Silence" at the time, due to an infactuation with bass guitarist Kate Smith, so he decided he wanted to impress her with a song to swoon her with.  This song contains loud passion, with the tortured vocals of Luke wailing the phrases "In dementia" and "My silence" over and over.  The phrase "I'm living in dementia" is a self-analysis.  He also thought it a joke to include grunge band "Screaming Trees" in the lyrics for no good reason.

Lyrics

I'm living in dementia
Breathing without air
Screaming trees cant help me
Break my silence easily

Because I'm trapped in a twisted maze, yeah
In dementia [x3]

Elegant to look at
Erupting into hate
Everything I wanna be
Stood up in front of me

Why the hell wont you help me break it
My silence [x3]

[solo]

I'm living in dementia
Breathing without air
Screaming trees cant help me
Break my silence easily

I would like to get out of this phase, yeah
In dementia [x3]
