inspiration behind the song, from an interview. The taxi driver had told us she used to be a long haul delivery driver and then went into a lot of personal details. She would take cocaine and crystal meth to stay awake so that she could drive all across the states on just one go. Then, one day, she overdid it and took too much meth and blacked out. Later, she found herself waking up one day suddenly in a strip club. She looked up and asked one of the strippers dancing what state she was in and what date it was. Turns out a whole month had gone by. She was no longer in the right state and had completely loss her truck. That whole month went by with zero recollection of what happened but she had this deep haunting feeling that she had done something terribly wrong, maybe even murder.

On the original video, someone made a comment about this song being about a 1950s housewife poisoning people who she disliked with cherry pie or other bakes and reading their obituaries with a smile the next day. It led through her eventual decrease into insanity until she attempts to kill her young son and realises what she's done. It was so well written and I'm not sure if the comment is still there but it's all I think of when I listen to this song and it's just so damn good.

The whole video is normal, you're the one actually going insane

*thought of a show while listening to this: it's a little half assed, bear with me* Every three years, during summer, somewhere in Texas a supposed serial killer starts a murder spree once again, only to fizzle out whenever summer ends. No matter how many times police have tried to sniff out the culprit, no traces have been left, no suspects have been found guilty. The movie takes place in the point of view of a young boy, in his mid to late teens. He's not too phased by these mysterious, yearly murders, but is not unaffected by them. One fateful afternoon, his parents are slaughtered, by what can only be explained by the mystery killer of Texas. From then on, he takes it upon himself to find the culprit, and thus he starts searching, visiting crime scenes, taking every single piece of evidence he can find. Yet in the end it is revealed, that he is the killer, his memories of committing homicide somehow disappear when the day ends, and has no recollection of it after summer ends. Horrified by his own actions, he turns himself in. While in jail, his strange murdering habits stops. He is free from jail after years, during summer. Though unnerved by the specific season, he goes back to his hometown, only to see it empty, abandoned in a wreckage. Apparently another slaughter had broken out; perhaps he didn't commit the crimes after all? He goes out of his way to investigate once more, discovering the fact that this murder cycle in texas has been a thing since a very, very long time ago. He somehow breaks this strange curse and all things seem normal. But later on its revealed, he was the only murderer Texas ever had, the boy went insane after discovering his own crimes back then, and is now in a mental asylum, he hallucinated all of the events that had taken place after he discovered his murderous habit. Thus the show ends on a bitter note.

Oohh okay, that's really good, I'm gonna build on that, I think that it would be a lady, committing these murders, and then ends up accidentally murdering her husband and then someone saw her and she slowly begins to break down and then she's arrested and then she goes even further insane, in which, she's stuck in an endless summer where her Cheshire grin and paper pale skin never change, and her husband is just out of reach, in the empty summer meadow/field, that is in her mind.

First of all Cloudy, "multiple personalities disorder" is an outdated term, it's referred to as DID or dissociative identity disorder now. Secondly, please for the love of god stop trying to relate any song with a dangerous or creepy undertone to some kind of mental illness you clearly lack any form of knowledge on. It portrays the illness in a bad light and can possibly mislead people. Just because the song references hearing voices does *not* = schizophrenia. Schizophrenia often times is much more complex than hearing voices and at times doesn't even include auditory hallucinations, especially voices. Mental illness isn't some quirky thing you should all slap onto a song title. It's not even what the intended story the writers were trying to convey here.

this song is criminally underrated

The vibe I get from this song is a group of friends decide to take a walk to the woods at night. But at some point they discover something they shouldn’t have found. It makes one of them go insane and kill one of the other kids. But after the kid is killed, the other returns to normal. The rest of the group had already fled, but the one that killed the other remains, and this is the song that plays in their head after they calm down.

this has always been my favorite from them, hits different slowed
