    join my secret demo club on patreon - / orlagartland
    & huge love to Fender who were kind enough to gift me this gorgeous acoustic - it's one of their paramount series: www.fender.com/pages/paramount :)
    ............
    lyrics & chords (capo 3):
    Am - (G) - F - Em - F - G (the first G is just a quick passing chord)
    I'm on an overcrowded train
    fighting an overcrowded brain
    and all these bags under my eyes
    hold up my compromise
    maybe I should change just everything, anything
    did you not learn anything in school?
    could have played by the rules
    could be happy in a different way
    struggling with the London rent
    they said it would be hard now I know what they meant
    I lose sleep, head stuck in the cereal bowl
    but I’m here for the music, I know
    distracted!
    can I say what I mean, can I mean what I say
    why can’t I figure out how I feel when I wake up everyday
    (pre:)
    Dm - G - (Em) (Em just a quick passing chord)
    Dm - G
    facing the world with the same old logic
    overanalysing everything is tragic
    and maybe some things they will never make sense
    so I tackle it all but I'm not making a dent
    (chorus:)
    F - C - G
    F - C - Em
    and I think my brain is breaking
    and it’s just myself I’ve been blaming
    it’s frustrating
    I just wanna know why
    and I know no good will come of it
    I wish that I could just be done with it
    but I’m sinking
    I just wanna know why i’m overthinking
    I'm an outcast, to be left behind
    I'm an extrovert with an anxious mind
    there's a danger that I'm gonna pour my heart out to a total stranger
    In a bar
    And they're not gonna wanna hear
    No, they're just there to sip their beer
    not hear about problems to solve
    “God this girl's so self involved”
    I play it out my head
    I'm trying to make good choices
    I hear voices
    they can't pick one side
    help! i look so stupid
    sitting there tongue tied
    meltdown! all i can hear
    is code red, code red
    got a problem in the control centre
    in my own head
    (pre)
    (chorus)

    I don't think I've ever seen someone so passionately expressing their music. I'm honestly absolutely in love with your style of singing. Those facial expressions, and especially the lyrics of this song. I'm so happy for you that you'll be able to release even more music you're passionate about and I'm already looking forward to it! 😊🌻

    Your timing is amazing - I'm being destroyed by anxiety this week and it's a year since I completely lost my mind from it. Sure I've come a long way but every time I have a bad patch it's so scary to think of going back! Overthinking is such a painful flaw with some of our minds and I'd love to be able to make it stop and have a proper social life and relationships that don't stress me out.

    • @orlagartland

    wow this is my first time finding someone I can truly relate to :00
    In my brain, I associate "anxiety" with introverts; and since I'm on the extroverted side, I always wondered if something was wrong with me. That said, the lines "I'm an extrovert with an anxious mind / There's a danger that I might just pour my heart out to a total stranger" stood out to me wow.

    i'm listening to this song after my first day back at school. I spent a lot of time sitting in class (around people that I'm 'friends' with). They're always engroced in their own conversations and I hate being so quiet around people I'm not comfortable with. I'm so thankful to have my close friends, who I can be myself around

    *Pensar demasiado*
    Estoy en un tren atestado de gente
    peleando con un cerebro congestionado
    Y estas bolsas debajo de mis ojos
    mantienen mi compromiso.
    Tal vez debería simplemente cambiar todo
    ¿No aprendiste nada en la escuela?
    Podría haber jugado según las reglas.
    Podría ser feliz de una manera diferente.
    Luchando con el alquiler londinense
    Dijeron que sería difícil, ahora veo a qué se referían
    Pierdo el sueño, con la cabeza metida en el plato de cereal
    Pero estoy aquí la música, lo sé
    ¡Distraída!
    ¿Puedo decir lo que quiero decir?, ¿puedo decir lo que digo?
    ¿Por qué no puedo descifrar cómo me siento cuando me despierto cada día?
    Enfrentando al mundo con la misma vieja lógica
    Sobreanalizar todo es trágico
    Y tal vez algunas cosas nunca tengan sentido
    Así que lo afronto pero no hago mella.
    Y creo que mi cerebro está rompiéndose
    Y sólo me he culpado sido a mí misma
    Es frustrante
    Sólo quiero saber por qué
    Y sé que nada bueno saldrá de esto
    Deseo simplemente terminar con ello
    pero estoy hundiéndome.
    Sólo quiero saber por qué estoy pensando demasiado.
    Soy una marginada, dejada a un lado
    Soy una extrovertida con una mente ansiosa
    Voy a abrirle mi corazón a un extraño
    En un bar
    Y ellos no van a querer oír
    No, sólo están ahí para beber sus cervezas
    no para escuchar problemas por resolver
    "Dios, esta chica es tan egocéntrica"
    No dejo de pensarlo
    Trato de tomar buenas decisiones
    Escucho voces
    No pueden escoger un bando
    ¡Ayuda! Luzco tan estúpida
    sentada aquí, cohibida.
    ¡Crisis! Todo lo que puedo oír
    es código rojo, código rojo
    Tengo un problema en el centro de control
    de mi propia cabeza
    Love the song! Can't stop listening 😍
