Death of Peace of Mind is an emotional and introspective track that deals with themes of anxiety, depression, and mental illness. The lyrics explore the inner turmoil of a person struggling with these issues, and the desperate search for inner peace and stability. The song features heavy, distorted guitars, pounding drums, and frontman Noah Sebastian’s intense vocals, creating a powerful and cathartic listening experience.
For me the lyrics “Love is the death of peace of mind…” reflects to my own life. When you love someone so much, you will never have peace of mind. You will always think of them, need them and want them. This can also be the negative aspect of falling in love. Like everything in life, you need balance. Food for thought.
Lyrics
I made another mistake, thought I could change
Thought I could make it out
Promises break, need to hear you say
You’re gonna keep it now
I miss the way you say my name
The way you bend, the way you break
Your makeup running down your face
The way you touch, the way you taste
When the curtains call the time
Will we both go home alive?
It wasn’t hard to realize
Love’s the death of peace of mind
You’re in the walls that I made with crosses and frames
Hanging upside down
For granted, in vain, I took everything
I ever cared about
I miss the way you say my name
The way you bend, the way you break
Your makeup running down your face
The way you fuck, the way you taste
When the curtains call the time
Will we both go home alive?
It wasn’t hard to realize
Love’s the death of peace of mind
When the curtains call the time
Will we both be satisfied?
It wasn’t hard to realize
Love’s the death of peace of mind
You come and go in waves
Leaving me in your wake
You come and go in waves
Swallowing everything
Are you satisfied?
Love’s the death of peace of mind
Mind, mind
When the curtains call the time
Will we both go home alive?
It wasn’t hard to realize
Love’s the death of peace of mind
When the curtains call the time
Will we both be satisfied?
It wasn’t hard to realize
Love’s the death of peace of mind…
