"last song i will post as a 17y/o... birthday soon :)" you mean to tell me you fucking made corrosion, one of my favorite vocaloid songs to date, AT AGE 14?! how in the hell did you do that what, and THIS IS SO GHOOD TOO???? im jealous and also insanely pleased to learn all of this lmfao
@the_demon149 talent is earned with time. No one is a natural, its a misconception. No one can just *do* things. You can be predisposed to it, even via nepotism, but you still have to work at it. Its just easier for you. You're jealous, but RIP started because they could. Maybe you can't. You shouldn't compare to what you can't match. If someone starts before you, odds are they will be subjectively "better". So what?
@@NobleTeam99 Agree. Although I think there are naturals but the naturals are not that special. I mean, sure, people like Einstein are amazing but I doub that he was an allrounder. I'm sure there were even topics which he couldn't understand. While my school time I realized that people who were far better than me in math (wrote ones or twos as grades) they struggled in exchange in subjects like politic or philosophy where I was really good in it. That was the point where I realized that it is not a question of talent but to understand and comprehend something. And some people comprehend some things better than others. You can suck in math and physic but be a genius in social knowledge or art. Or you are weak in chemistry but really amazing in biology. Perhaps you suck in history but are in exchange incredible in languages. In my case it's so, that my comprehension sucks with math questions which are hidden in words and phrases. I know the basics and know how to operate, but I can't work with something when the question isn't clear formulated and I'm forced to interpret the abstract stuff into something comprehensible. However, I'm good in biology and social knowledge. In short: we all have a talent for something but we either don't really realize it or ignore it uncautiously. That's at least my conclusion about talent and people.
to me this song feels like it's about dysphoria, paranoia and a dissociative disorder. as such, it goes in The Box and i am putting it in all of my playlists forever /pos
Honestly so many disorders follow underneath this song. I have heard, DID, dysphoria, OCD, OSDD, BPD, ADHD, Autism, GAD, psychical illness, ect. The fact that so many people can relate to this song is amazing. ngl I wish I commented this sooner but another great hit from R.I.P Edit: wow and alot more too
As someone with C-PTSD the moment from 00:41 to 00:59 define my experience so well, the nightmares, the constant fear of something happening, trying to repress memories of the incidents only for them to come crashing back down onto me.
this song heavily reminds me of my own experiences with OCD. the fruiting bodies representing either intrusive thoughts or stuff your brain decided to obsess over there. "i just wanna itch and scratch" could represent compulsions (even though most of mine are mental). this one is a bit of a stretch but "i am not in the body that was meant for me" could be referring to the fake physical sensations or false attractions certain subtypes of OCD can give you. anyways, practically every lyric reminds me of OCD so im too lazy to write all of them out here lmao.
I agree! I have OCD and this song reminds me of how I constantly pick at my skin. The mushrooms sprouting out of her skin are like the "flaws" that I get obsessed with. It also reminds me of how I feel contaminated.
YES! And the almost constant feeling of being dirty/contaminated when it’s really bad, or feeling as if you’ve done something wrong, or as if something’s wrong with you.
Okay. Here’s my theory: prions. The singer first describes being unable to sleep and feeling sick but not having anything indicating they’re sick. The first symptom of FFI, a prion disease, is insomnia. The singer also describes having an INTENSE need to scratch and itch, which is a key symptom of scrapie, a prion disease affecting sheep. The singer’s paranoia, what later seems to become hallucinations, delusions and disorder thinking, is quite reminiscent of psychosis and dementia, both of what prion diseases cause. The single “fruiting body” in the first chorus is the initial prion- all it needs is one badly formed protein to send off a chain reaction, plunging the sick person into a downward spiral. “The ones like me weren’t built to last” could refer to the singer’s family dying from the same illness. “I’m not one to cry, but I haven’t been able to since” might refer to the pseudobulbar affect, which kuru (a prion disease) is known to cause. “My organs and the colony will mix-mix-mix” could refer to how the prions have completely taken over the singer’s brain. Anyways, thanks for reading my comment. Have a great day.
@@aspenhart_ I agree with you on the DID theory, but you're probably thinking of GHOST! as far as i know, RIP hasn't actually said anything about having DID/OSDD, but GHOST definitely has
This reminds me of my OCD. all the intrusive thoughts making me think im not who i really think i am, making me feel like im in danger, the compulsions that could potentially become harmful, sometimes when i explain to people how i view myself because of this, theyre confused because they say that its barely what im like. as if im describing myself as a different person. it keeps me awake at night, worrying certain things are coming for me. no matter how hard i try, i cant block out the intrusive violent and sexual thoughts. being desperate for a way to untaint myself, wondering how my brain dug up memories to turn into obsessions which lead to more compulsions, not knowing what is a real thought or an intrusive thought or obsession. it hits me even deeper since my ocd was worsened massively by a bad experience, so im less numb to it than your average joe. it fits oddly well edit: this really seems similar to the whole ocd contamination thing in general. fear of being contaminated by someone, feeling contaminated, and feeling like youre spreading it (which often leads to compulsions of isolation, or in this case, a desire to be taken out). i know many interpret this as DID/OCDD, but it feels like this to me
Yes yes! I think this could be applicable to OCD and it matches up with how my intrusive thoughts feel, constantly pushing myself to do certain things so I can stray away from those thoughts. It definitely makes you feel like a different person and like you're not in total control of the 'growth' of those thoughts (or mushrooms, in this case)
I agree! I also struggle with OCD on top of other stuff, most relevant being anxiety. This really hits alot of my compulsive issues and it's great to feel seen. Even on accident ha!
i know it's a metaphor for dissociative disorders, but I like to think that it's about the singer physically rapidly deteriorating from black mold gone rogue in their house.
Whats more horrorfying... the idea that this is all metaphorical? Or that she's litterally disolving into fungi, mixed with laughter and cries, struggling to stay together as her friend watch her turn, telling them "No second chances, DO IT NOW!" Now, before seeing the video, I imagined the singer was slowly turning to a humanoid amalgam of fungi, with small deformities and, maybe even a mouth on the side of her head, slowly driving her crazy as they tear her apart, literally and figurativly... (Would I make it in the horror industry with that desc?)
things people missed if you weren't in the live stream: -pretzels -gay clowns -watermelon (temporarily) -gumi gummy gummy gumi gumi is gummy -new discord server -new clown ocs -trans????
After thinking about it for a bit, I'm pretty sure this is a metaphor for those... Less than pleasant thoughts. That little fruiting body budding in the depths eventually evolving into a thousand fruiting bodies bursting out of her skin, spreading their pores, could represent how a little negative thought grows, and how it WILL spread and multiply and take over if you let it. But hey, that's just a theory.
Trivia about cordyceps mushrooms: The host is actually conscious, since the only things the cordyceps targets are the body parts needed to climb upwards like the legs and jaws. No mind control of the sort.
As a DID system this song hits so close to home “People say I’m not the one I claim to be” “A trauma in the system” “How did we end up in here? Nobody knows” “I am not in the body that was meant for me” “I don’t know how my mind acquired these memories”
The final realisation that you can't go back once you realise what's been going on is rarely touched on in songs, let alone in ones about / paralelling did/osdd. Glad to know me and my headmates will have something to loop for a good few hours haha
I know this is all metaphors for DID or something like that but I can't help but interpret it literally. Like this girl just suddenly becomes a horrifying mushroom-person hybrid and ends up as a pile of flesh and organs. Great song nonetheless! My brain is just messed up :,) WHY DOES THIS HAVE SO MANY LIKES Thx btw this makes me happy :D
even though i have a form of did/osdd i didnt pick up on the song being about that for some reason LMFAO..... i just thought it was about a girl that got infected by a parasite or something which caused organisms to thrive in her
This song feels like DID/OSDD... and if its not intentional it's certainly applicable to the experiences of those disorders... it also sounds REALLY GOOD I love it so much
Yeah! I personally feel it was unintentional but it definitely does give DID/OSDD vibes in ways. As a system we relate to it when it comes to those vibes
coming back to this, just want to highlight some lyrics other than the main themes (of 'fruiting' hundreds of 'bodies') that REALLY stand out to me as potentially referencing DID: "i try to be the best version of me" "people say im not the one i claim to be" "a trauma to the system's all it needs to begin" (COME ON) "how did we end up in here? nobody knows" "the ones like me werent built to last" "somethings wrong with the form of my identity, suddenly im coming to. i am not in the body that was meant for me" "im not one to cry but i have been unable to since" "i dont know how my mind acquired these memories" "now i wish i had guarded my naivety, i have shed the universal veil" "its impossible to tell which ones are real anymore" "now my body is the keeper of the roots in my core" overall, assuming the song is about DID, it sounds to me like the common experience of a host realizing they have DID and finding multitudes of alters/parts under the surface, and all of the identity turmoil that comes with that, and coming to terms with not being the only one, or even the "original", and struggling with the implanted memories and/or amnesia that results this seems so blatant to me, and i mean that lovingly! RIP if youre reading this, whatever the song is truly about, i hope you are doing well, thank you for a song that we can really relate to. much love ❤
MMMMHMHMHMHM can't wait. i can already tell this is gonna be a B O P I'm getting vibes similar to The Medical Anomaly, i wonder if this'll be another medical themed song too.
While the song is written with the intent to capture the experience with OCD and general paranoia, (info I got from looking through replies.) as someone with BPD, this song really resonates with me. Isolation periods are common out for a fear of hurting the ones around me and I can’t control intrusive thoughts and I often feel like a horrible person for feeling the way I do, and There’s moments where I convince myself that people are out to get me. Often time it’s small things that trigger these moods as well, when I’m in a clear headspace I can look back and these moments almost embarrassed at how I acted but in the movement very little detail makes so much sense and adds to whatever delusion I’d convinced myself into believing. I’ve seen a lot of people relate their song to their experiences but I haven’t seen anyone draw a comparison with BPD yet so I just wanted to put that out there. It’s very nice to see a place whwre so many people can all come together and identify a common feeling and all because of shared niche interest. I really do love looking at the comments of songs like these :). I learn a lot about the experiences of others from situations like this.
argg i keep hearing songs that fit characters in my fav fandoms so well and then i have the end up finding an entire playlist of songs for that character
bro i immediately started relating this song to the game discover my body, especially with the "i dont know how my mind acquired these memories" and "my rotting body is the perfect fit" lines, i was also finding ties to various analog horror media but it wasnt as glaringly obvious as discover my body imo, but then i scroll into the comments and i see people talking about mental illnesses and im like "ohh shit that actually makes sense, especially for rip oofers." but maybe it was just because i had just finished watching markipliers videos videos on both analog horror and discorver my body so its like at the top of my mind rn
for the longest time i misheard "cry" as "die" in "I'm not one to cry, but I have been unable to since" i'm going to continue hearing it that way because that's so metal and i love it, but y'know
Lyrics: Oh, lately I’ve been awaking at night, out of breath and feeling scared I think I must be under attack, but nothing’s ever there Oh, I try to be the best version of me, so I push all the bad thoughts away But, something snaps in the back of my mind, and I think about it anyway My mind’s eye is defined by contrariety I just wanna itch and scratch (I just wanna itch and scratch) People say I am not the one I claim to be Won’t you tell me what you think of that? (Won’t you tell me what you think of that?) A little fruiting body buds under my skin A trauma to the system’s all it needs to begin No, don’t come any closer! It’s a trick-trick-trick And it terrifies me more than I intend to admit Left discarded and forgotten right under your nose Oh, how did we end up in here? Nobody knows! My rotting body is the perfect fit-fit-fit Unbeknownst to anybody, the mycelium grows Picture me, unable to sleep, not a sound rings out in the house The voices tell me something is hiding underneath the ground I repress my fright, and I cover my eyes and surrender myself to my fate The ones like me weren’t built to last I’m not leaving it up for debate Something’s wrong with the form of my identity Suddenly, I’m coming to (Suddenly, I'm coming to) I am not in the body that was meant for me Tell me what I am supposed to do (Tell me what I am supposed to do) Another fruiting body sprouts out of my skin A tiny opportunity planted within Oh, look away I’m gonna be sick-sick-sick I’m not one to cry, but I have been unable to since They’re coming after me I can’t run away They hear me screaming in fear They think it’s hilarious We’re coming after you You can’t run away We hear you screaming in fear Isn’t it hilarious? I don’t know how my mind acquired these memories Tell me what it all entails (Tell me what it all entails) Now I wish I had guarded my naivety I have shed the universal veil (I have shed the universal veil) A hundred fruiting bodies burst out of my skin The countless amanitas are doing me in You’re allowed to take me out if you so wish-wish-wish No such thing as second chances it’s a hit or a miss! And a thousand fruiting bodies are spreading their pores It’s impossible to tell which ones are real anymore My organs and the colony will mix-mix-mix Now my body is the keeper of the roots in my core
I mainly posted this here because I have problems reading the lyrics when they're in video and I assume other people have the same problem. That's not to say or critique the video or its content, I think the song is awesome and the video is well edited. I just decided to put the lyrics here because some people might find it easier to read them. I'm not intending to disrespect anybody or step on anyone's toes sort of say. Small side note, hope you have an amazing birthday R.I.P!
I'm going to admit it. I usually am scared to listen to songs made by artists I love cause I'm scared I won't like it and then I'll stop liking the artist. RIP and Ghost-n-pals are the only two artists that I can listen to their new songs and old songs and love ALL OF THEM!!!
iirc, 'mycelium' is a fungus that essentially takes over the plant it attaches too? Like, a mind control kind of thing I think. Intertwining with how the speaker sings how they 'don't know how my mind acquired these memories', because it's not them making it. I don't know if the whole meaning is meant to be about the fungus, but the parallels are fun (if I'm remembering what the fungus is correctly dbdbbdbd)!! Song is also very funky. scratches brain well Update: been informed I'm thinking of the cordyceps fungus, and that mycelium is what connects the plant and fungus together if I'm getting this right-
Mycelium is actually something all fungi have, and is actually the main body of the fungus. The above ground portion of the mushroom is just the "fruiting body" that releases spores.
Nope, you're thinking of the Cordyceps fungus, which takes over the mind of its host insect. Mycelium is just the 'roots' that all fungi have that allow it to spread.
THIS SONG IS SO GOOD The artstyle improved so much and it looks so *CLEAN* The lyrics are amazing and the melody is so captivating And the song is overall really catchy thank you for feeding us🙏
Can we take a moment to appreciate the tempo changes in this song?! Also, all the hands sprouting out from behind the character is reminding me of Blood-Stained Switch (which also happens to be a song with strong disassociative disorder themes, interesting)
A lot of people are associating this with OSDD and DID but I feel like experiencing puberty as a trans person is equally fitting if not more so. It involves Identity, unwanted bodily changes you can't stop, and feeling out of place in said body, as if it doesn't belong to you.
Wow you guys got way more than I did I was like "ah yes the song is sung from the perspective of a lemon or some kind of citrus fruit that is slowly rotting and is full of maggots or fly larvae".
I know that this is about DID but I just want to say that as someone with a secondary structural disscoiation disorder caused by trauma (BPD specifically), I really relate to this as well! At times it also do be kinda relatable for gender dysphoria tho obvi I get what the lyrics mean in the context of DID. Also btw it's really cool to me that you describe your mind as mushrooms and mycelium! I usually feel like my mind is a car or a cafeteria. Or "several angry raccoons in a trench coat attempting to pose as one unified person".
why are all these songs the most relatable pieces of art ever. as someone struggling with bpd, this song speaking about paranoia and not really knowing who you are, losing your sense of self, it really speaks to me a lot. i always feel like someone's out to get me, watching me, and i never really know who i am. thank you for creating this song, i never hear songs speaking about a topic like this and it's really... nice to know that other people struggle with the same thing and i'm not alone on this. thank you :)
I don't know how to explain it but this Definitely feels like mushroom music. A banger as always, your tuning and ability to make gumi sound so crisp is incredible
Ngl I relate this song to my psychosis. Especially with some p/as I have, my identity/who i am can shift a lot. Also the paranoia part about something being under the floor can easily be about delusions. I love it!!
I got two ads in a row about mushrooms/fungus on this video 😭😭 UA-cam really saw “mushroom” and ran with it… also, this is such a great song!! R.I.P just keeps producing bangers…
I love how it’s her overthinking and the music slows a bit and the scream gets slightly darker but as soon as she says “I repress my fright” it goes back to all bright cheery and normal speed
I'm so into this song, a lot of times I use similar metaphors when talking about paranoia and psychosis, the feeling of something in the dark and the feeling of not being you ahhhh it's so good!!
YOU NEVER MISS!!!!! been here since a little after "you're an awful person" came out and I just have to say ALL YOUR SONGS ARE AMAZING!!!! Have an amazing day/night
Holy smokes!! Another banger!! There isn’t a song that R.I.P makes that doesn’t immediately go into my jammy jams playlist!! Another one to listen to on repeat! Yay!!!
Even if this song implies DID, it could also imply Dissociative Amnesia or repressed memories coming back to light, where everything suddenly starts to feel weird, you start to suffer suddenly from the symptomps of your trauma and the thing that you mind desperately tried to keep hidden appears, as you start to relive what your brain hid
If I'm being honest, reading all of these comments about personal experiences and opinions about different disorders it's very interesting, like, now I want to use my sleeping hours reading books and research about mental disorders... I uhh, hope I didn't sound rude or something-
R.I.P is one of those producers that you know the songs will always be bangers even before you hear them. Absolutely love this song!! I'll be playing it on loop for the next few days :D
exposure therapy :) and thank you sm!!!! dont push yourself though, i have another song called “finders keepers” that has a similar vibe to this one but no mushrooms if you would rather listen to that!!
The way gumi says “Won’t you tell me what you think of that?” Reminds me of that one knock knock joke. The one that goes “Orange ya glad I didn’t say banana?”. It only makes this song better.
so the suspected vibes are: paranoid schizophrenia or other mental illness OR actually just tripping on shrooms or other drugs either way the paranoia here is very prevalent and as someone who struggles with this kinda thing i love to see it here. gg RIP ✨
it's like a loss of identity. to me it gives me trans vibes "i am not in the body that was meant for me" "people say i am not who i claim to be". either way it's something to do with losing your sense of self and going insane.
Definitely gives me DID / OSDD vibes. All the different contradicting statements from characters in one body and with R.I.P’s history of these types of songs (Monochrome Mentality, and Masquerade) this seems to be sort of follow the same line of showing the different thoughts and words of separate people in one body and then showing the chaos and struggle in the body, resulting from the situation near the end of the song
I think it’s about Cordyceps infecting a person . It’s something that currently only effects insects , that’s also where the term “ Fruiting body “ comes from , if I’m incorrect , then I’m sorry
hey, just to let you know, multiple personality is an outdated term and is considered offensive, since alters aren’t different personalities, but more similar to different people ^^
@@dove5693 Wow. That's a long time. I also forget to drink water but I usually end up drinking at least a little bit by the end of the day. Maybe try setting alarms to remind you to drink water. You could try flavored water or some other hydrating drink like Gatorade if you still are having a hard time. You should also probably talk to a doctor when you get the chance, I've heard about people having to go to the hospital because of dehydration.
YOUR SONGS GET BETTER WITH EACH NEW ONE HOLY SHIT???? this is genuinely so damn good, you always manage to blow me away with everything you create! Been following since corrosion came out, and have been a huge fan ever since! Keep it up!! :D
the moment i saw this song was going to premiere i dropped my nintendo switch idk how it's doing rn but if this song is nintendo switch dropping before you even hear it, that's when you KNOW it's good
3:21 HIT OR MISS????? Okay okay, jokes aside I absolutely love this song. The song is really cool that the mushrooms in my body started growing and started to dance to the beat! Thank you for making such a good song!
Another meaning for this song could be changing for other people and being influenced by their interests and forgetting who you truly are being paranoid if they might not like you and the many types of people you have imitated for someone to like you so much so that you've forgotten who you truly are
I know this does have metaphors with dissociative mental illnesses, but I oddly relate to it with my OCD tendencies and anxiety. (I would say autism, but it isnt officially confirmed - Just speculated heavily by my therapist.) (Update: yeah im a lil autistic) I struggled with social interactions in middle school, and the whole "Oh, I try to be the best version of me, so I push all the bad thoughts away / But, something snaps in the back of my mind, and I think about it anyway" heavily reminds me of how much I wanted to please people / intrusive thoughts. Idk, it just kinda hits at home with me bc i also see people mentioning it could also relate to puberty as a trans person, which i.. am, lol. anyways, rant aside, i love this song! adding it to my spotify playlists :>
As a system, this song definitely seems to be about finding out you’re a system and learning to deal with the initial panic and fear of realizing that you’re part of a system and why systems exist to begin with. I can really relate to this song and it takes me back to my experiences with first finding out I’m part of a system. This is such a nice song, keep up the good work
as someone who has a system... this song h i t home- i got so emotional listening to it. especially relating to the exotrauma and memories that arent your own. the discovery of it all is terrifying tbh
At first I thought this song was about someone who had some sort of mold/fungus under their bed/carpet and how they felt like something was wrong but everyone called them crazy so they ignored it but were controlled, taken over and decomposed by it, and turned into a body that's nothing but a horrifying pile of mushrooms and organs. Yes, there are many, many things wrong with me.
As someone with paranoid Psychosis, this represents it PERFECTLY. I never thought a Gumi song would represent my struggles so much! This is amazing. 1:42
this reminds me of several things I've gone through, certain paranoias, a sort of twisted sense of identity, dysphoria.. i see a bunch of people saying different stuff though, and that's exactly what I like about your music. It's applicable to so many people, and so many people can relate to it in different ways. Your music helps and connects people in more ways than one
that opening hits hard I also really relate to the OCD aspect of this, as somebody who compulsively skin-picks ("I just wanna itch and scratch") and feeling like your body is "uncomfortable" to live in
I know this probably wasn't intentional, but the lyrics remind me of gender dysphoria. Even the title, could be interpreted as going through the wrong puberty
i definitely agree, but not just dysphoria. the loss of identity you get as a trans person. other identities being forced onto you and growing inside you
This might be a bit of a stretch but the first part of the song reminds me of dermatillomania, a disorder where you compulsively pick your skin, especially at 1:05 "I just wanna itch and scratch"
Also the "fruiting bodies" could be a representative for skin picking wounds ( edit i found a few more lyrics that fit. "So i push all the bad thoughts away, but something snaps in the back of my mind and i think about it anyway" could be trying to resist intrusive thoughts and impulses but being unable to. "A trauma to the systems all it needs to begin" could be referenceing only needing one small cut and to start skin picking in that area "how did we end up here? Nobody knows" could be realizing how far it has gone "Its impossible to tell which ones are real anymore" could be haveing so many scars its physically impossible to tell the difference between scars and wounds)
I don’t think a similar thought/experience to mine has been commented yet! So I relate this song to my OCD, anxiety, really irrational fears (trigger warning for eating disorder) and also gender dysphoria? I know the song’s most likely a metaphor for DID, but one of my irrational fears is of food (due to my OCD). Because of that, I can’t really control how I feel sick around food. And I start screaming when something in me snaps and I realise the area around me is unclean/untidy (again because of OCD, it’s really hard to explain, I start having a cleaning fit after uncontrollably crying/screaming). I relate with the lyrics because this feels like something “wrong with my body” since mine feels rundown (malnourished, refuses to eat, has an extreme reaction to certain irrational fears), and I blame my body for my fear response in the first place- since it acts this way without me being able to control it. If it makes sense, I want to be really strong and healthy, but my body isn’t that. (To connect with the lyrics, it feels like my body is rotting, and people like me weren’t fit to last.) And it won’t *let* me be that. So it feels like I’m in the wrong body. Then with anxiety, I have this irrational fear of people and sometimes I think they’re out to get me (when they’re not)! I relate this with the paranoid parts of the song where it talks about people creeping up on you and thinking it’s hilarious? Obviously people aren’t out to get me, (I think), but sometimes it feels like it. And that sometimes keeps me up at night..? It’s creepy..
oh her eyes are so adorable 🥺 poor child :( I absolutely LOVE your drawing style (this girl is kinda giving me mushroom vibes… somehow) and this song is a BANGER!! awesome as always!!
Can I just say the fact that her hair looks like a mushroom cap is the icing on the cake for this masterpiece.

Agree.
Although I think there are naturals but the naturals are not that special.
I mean, sure, people like Einstein are amazing but I doub that he was an allrounder.
I'm sure there were even topics which he couldn't understand.
While my school time I realized that people who were far better than me in math (wrote ones or twos as grades) they struggled in exchange in subjects like politic or philosophy where I was really good in it.
That was the point where I realized that it is not a question of talent but to understand and comprehend something.
And some people comprehend some things better than others.
You can suck in math and physic but be a genius in social knowledge or art.
Or you are weak in chemistry but really amazing in biology.
Perhaps you suck in history but are in exchange incredible in languages.
In my case it's so, that my comprehension sucks with math questions which are hidden in words and phrases.
I know the basics and know how to operate, but I can't work with something when the question isn't clear formulated and I'm forced to interpret the abstract stuff into something comprehensible.
However, I'm good in biology and social knowledge.
In short: we all have a talent for something but we either don't really realize it or ignore it uncautiously.
That's at least my conclusion about talent and people.

As someone with C-PTSD the moment from 00:41 to 00:59 define my experience so well, the nightmares, the constant fear of something happening, trying to repress memories of the incidents only for them to come crashing back down onto me.
this song makes me feel like someone's right behind me. i think that means it's good
this song heavily reminds me of my own experiences with OCD. the fruiting bodies representing either intrusive thoughts or stuff your brain decided to obsess over there. "i just wanna itch and scratch" could represent compulsions (even though most of mine are mental). this one is a bit of a stretch but "i am not in the body that was meant for me" could be referring to the fake physical sensations or false attractions certain subtypes of OCD can give you.
anyways, practically every lyric reminds me of OCD so im too lazy to write all of them out here lmao.
I agree! I have OCD and this song reminds me of how I constantly pick at my skin. The mushrooms sprouting out of her skin are like the "flaws" that I get obsessed with. It also reminds me of how I feel contaminated.
I need help.
godd yea i agree so much !!!!!
I agree so hard with magical thinking + bigotry OCD
YES! And the almost constant feeling of being dirty/contaminated when it’s really bad, or feeling as if you’ve done something wrong, or as if something’s wrong with you.
This song definitely reminds me of like, the vibes of when you tell people you're working on getting over your trauma, and they start acting different
thats what im getting too except that happened to me with friends 😔

And once again my undertale phase has risen from the ground and hit me over the head with an iron pipe
Lol perfect comment
@@rinatepaste9218 LOL SAME!!!
Okay. Here’s my theory: prions.
The singer first describes being unable to sleep and feeling sick but not having anything indicating they’re sick. The first symptom of FFI, a prion disease, is insomnia. The singer also describes having an INTENSE need to scratch and itch, which is a key symptom of scrapie, a prion disease affecting sheep. The singer’s paranoia, what later seems to become hallucinations, delusions and disorder thinking, is quite reminiscent of psychosis and dementia, both of what prion diseases cause. The single “fruiting body” in the first chorus is the initial prion- all it needs is one badly formed protein to send off a chain reaction, plunging the sick person into a downward spiral. “The ones like me weren’t built to last” could refer to the singer’s family dying from the same illness. “I’m not one to cry, but I haven’t been able to since” might refer to the pseudobulbar affect, which kuru (a prion disease) is known to cause. “My organs and the colony will mix-mix-mix” could refer to how the prions have completely taken over the singer’s brain.
Anyways, thanks for reading my comment. Have a great day.
In addition, prions are SO hard to eliminate to the point where regardless of how hard you to try to eliminate them, you won’t.
actually, I'm pretty sure this song is about DID, which, if I'm not mixing two vocaloid song creators together, RIP confirmed they have.
@@aspenhart_ I agree with you on the DID theory, but you're probably thinking of GHOST! as far as i know, RIP hasn't actually said anything about having DID/OSDD, but GHOST definitely has
@@aspenhart_ at the very least, it’s based off RIP’s experiences with their(?) own mind
@@aspenhart_ RIP didn’t confirm anything about the meaning of *this* song in particular.
This reminds me of my OCD.
all the intrusive thoughts making me think im not who i really think i am, making me feel like im in danger, the compulsions that could potentially become harmful,
sometimes when i explain to people how i view myself because of this, theyre confused because they say that its barely what im like. as if im describing myself as a different person.
it keeps me awake at night, worrying certain things are coming for me. no matter how hard i try, i cant block out the intrusive violent and sexual thoughts. being desperate for a way to untaint myself, wondering how my brain dug up memories to turn into obsessions which lead to more compulsions, not knowing what is a real thought or an intrusive thought or obsession. it hits me even deeper since my ocd was worsened massively by a bad experience, so im less numb to it than your average joe. it fits oddly well
edit: this really seems similar to the whole ocd contamination thing in general. fear of being contaminated by someone, feeling contaminated, and feeling like youre spreading it (which often leads to compulsions of isolation, or in this case, a desire to be taken out). i know many interpret this as DID/OCDD, but it feels like this to me
Yes yes! I think this could be applicable to OCD and it matches up with how my intrusive thoughts feel, constantly pushing myself to do certain things so I can stray away from those thoughts. It definitely makes you feel like a different person and like you're not in total control of the 'growth' of those thoughts (or mushrooms, in this case)
I agree! I also struggle with OCD on top of other stuff, most relevant being anxiety. This really hits alot of my compulsive issues and it's great to feel seen. Even on accident ha!
I feel this bro
I'm disturbed on how much I sort of relate to this-
I agree so hard with magical thinking + bigotry OCD

GOOD LORD THE SCRATCHY VOICE EFFECTS INBETWEEN SOME LINES JUST HIT THAT FUCKING SPOT OUUUGGGHH /POS
IKRR??? LITERALLY THEIR BEST WORK YET UGHJJJJ /POS
The scratching voice itches the frontal lobe of my brain
i know it's a metaphor for dissociative disorders, but I like to think that it's about the singer physically rapidly deteriorating from black mold gone rogue in their house.
Whats more horrorfying... the idea that this is all metaphorical? Or that she's litterally disolving into fungi, mixed with laughter and cries, struggling to stay together as her friend watch her turn, telling them "No second chances, DO IT NOW!"
Now, before seeing the video, I imagined the singer was slowly turning to a humanoid amalgam of fungi, with small deformities and, maybe even a mouth on the side of her head, slowly driving her crazy as they tear her apart, literally and figurativly... (Would I make it in the horror industry with that desc?)
If your own creation manages to scare YOU, you 100% did horror right.

After thinking about it for a bit, I'm pretty sure this is a metaphor for those... Less than pleasant thoughts.
That little fruiting body budding in the depths eventually evolving into a thousand fruiting bodies bursting out of her skin, spreading their pores, could represent how a little negative thought grows, and how it WILL spread and multiply and take over if you let it.
But hey, that's just a theory.
A game theory
Trivia about cordyceps mushrooms:
The host is actually conscious, since the only things the cordyceps targets are the body parts needed to climb upwards like the legs and jaws. No mind control of the sort.
oh yeah, that! it’s actually a thousand times worse if you think about it!
Last of us???👁️👄👁️
“I am not in the body that was meant for me” as someone who feels like a virus in a host body I agree.
I feel yah- it's painful
REAL AS FUCK
This song very much gives me “perfectly sweet” vibes!
So I wasn't the only one who thought that!
Personally I get The Medical Anomaly vibes lol

Perfectly sweet but the ingredients went bad
@@verakumarz I know that ^^
As a DID system this song hits so close to home
“People say I’m not the one I claim to be”
“A trauma in the system”
“How did we end up in here? Nobody knows”
“I am not in the body that was meant for me”
“I don’t know how my mind acquired these memories”
ye
omg same
thats why i like it so much omg
This already looks like it’s gonna be one of the best songs ever omg
YES
I WAS RIGHT
The final realisation that you can't go back once you realise what's been going on is rarely touched on in songs, let alone in ones about / paralelling did/osdd. Glad to know me and my headmates will have something to loop for a good few hours haha
I know this is all metaphors for DID or something like that but I can't help but interpret it literally. Like this girl just suddenly becomes a horrifying mushroom-person hybrid and ends up as a pile of flesh and organs. Great song nonetheless! My brain is just messed up :,)
WHY DOES THIS HAVE SO MANY LIKES
Thx btw this makes me happy :D
Same I thought mushrooms were growing in her skin
İ think she got infected with a special type of mushroom, like one of these zombie mushrooms but for humans
Plus she kinda look like Fran bow so it would make sense in this universe
even though i have a form of did/osdd i didnt pick up on the song being about that for some reason LMFAO..... i just thought it was about a girl that got infected by a parasite or something which caused organisms to thrive in her
OSDD havers 🤝 Trans gener individuals 🤝 Body horror enthusiasts
this song
I'm 2 of 3
This song feels like DID/OSDD... and if its not intentional it's certainly applicable to the experiences of those disorders... it also sounds REALLY GOOD I love it so much
exactly what I was thinking! I have OSDD and throughout the first listen I started thinking “hey this is kinda a mood”
Yeah! I personally feel it was unintentional but it definitely does give DID/OSDD vibes in ways. As a system we relate to it when it comes to those vibes
coming back to this, just want to highlight some lyrics other than the main themes (of 'fruiting' hundreds of 'bodies') that REALLY stand out to me as potentially referencing DID:
"i try to be the best version of me"
"people say im not the one i claim to be"
"a trauma to the system's all it needs to begin" (COME ON)
"how did we end up in here? nobody knows"
"the ones like me werent built to last"
"somethings wrong with the form of my identity, suddenly im coming to. i am not in the body that was meant for me"
"im not one to cry but i have been unable to since"
"i dont know how my mind acquired these memories"
"now i wish i had guarded my naivety, i have shed the universal veil"
"its impossible to tell which ones are real anymore"
"now my body is the keeper of the roots in my core"
overall, assuming the song is about DID, it sounds to me like the common experience of a host realizing they have DID and finding multitudes of alters/parts under the surface, and all of the identity turmoil that comes with that, and coming to terms with not being the only one, or even the "original", and struggling with the implanted memories and/or amnesia that results
this seems so blatant to me, and i mean that lovingly! RIP if youre reading this, whatever the song is truly about, i hope you are doing well, thank you for a song that we can really relate to. much love ❤
Yeah, I don't think it was intentional but I have DID and it really hits
as someone who experiences psychosis this is relatable too
MMMMHMHMHMHM can't wait. i can already tell this is gonna be a B O P
I'm getting vibes similar to The Medical Anomaly, i wonder if this'll be another medical themed song too.

@russell seager I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE AN END ROLL FAN
While the song is written with the intent to capture the experience with OCD and general paranoia, (info I got from looking through replies.) as someone with BPD, this song really resonates with me. Isolation periods are common out for a fear of hurting the ones around me and I can’t control intrusive thoughts and I often feel like a horrible person for feeling the way I do, and There’s moments where I convince myself that people are out to get me. Often time it’s small things that trigger these moods as well, when I’m in a clear headspace I can look back and these moments almost embarrassed at how I acted but in the movement very little detail makes so much sense and adds to whatever delusion I’d convinced myself into believing. I’ve seen a lot of people relate their song to their experiences but I haven’t seen anyone draw a comparison with BPD yet so I just wanted to put that out there. It’s very nice to see a place whwre so many people can all come together and identify a common feeling and all because of shared niche interest. I really do love looking at the comments of songs like these :). I learn a lot about the experiences of others from situations like this.
argg i keep hearing songs that fit characters in my fav fandoms so well and then i have the end up finding an entire playlist of songs for that character
bro i immediately started relating this song to the game discover my body, especially with the "i dont know how my mind acquired these memories" and "my rotting body is the perfect fit" lines, i was also finding ties to various analog horror media but it wasnt as glaringly obvious as discover my body imo, but then i scroll into the comments and i see people talking about mental illnesses and im like "ohh shit that actually makes sense, especially for rip oofers." but maybe it was just because i had just finished watching markipliers videos videos on both analog horror and discorver my body so its like at the top of my mind rn
for the longest time i misheard "cry" as "die" in "I'm not one to cry, but I have been unable to since"
i'm going to continue hearing it that way because that's so metal and i love it, but y'know
Lyrics:
Oh, lately I’ve been awaking at night, out of breath and feeling scared
I think I must be under attack, but nothing’s ever there
Oh, I try to be the best version of me, so I push all the bad thoughts away
But, something snaps in the back of my mind, and I think about it anyway
My mind’s eye is defined by contrariety
I just wanna itch and scratch
(I just wanna itch and scratch)
People say I am not the one I claim to be
Won’t you tell me what you think of that?
(Won’t you tell me what you think of that?)
A little fruiting body buds under my skin
A trauma to the system’s all it needs to begin
No, don’t come any closer! It’s a trick-trick-trick
And it terrifies me more than I intend to admit
Left discarded and forgotten right under your nose
Oh, how did we end up in here? Nobody knows!
My rotting body is the perfect fit-fit-fit
Unbeknownst to anybody, the mycelium grows
Picture me, unable to sleep, not a sound rings out in the house
The voices tell me something is hiding underneath the ground
I repress my fright, and I cover my eyes and surrender myself to my fate
The ones like me weren’t built to last
I’m not leaving it up for debate
Something’s wrong with the form of my identity
Suddenly, I’m coming to
(Suddenly, I'm coming to)
I am not in the body that was meant for me
Tell me what I am supposed to do
(Tell me what I am supposed to do)
Another fruiting body sprouts out of my skin
A tiny opportunity planted within
Oh, look away I’m gonna be sick-sick-sick
I’m not one to cry, but I have been unable to since
They’re coming after me
I can’t run away
They hear me screaming in fear
They think it’s hilarious
We’re coming after you
You can’t run away
We hear you screaming in fear
Isn’t it hilarious?
I don’t know how my mind acquired these memories
Tell me what it all entails
(Tell me what it all entails)
Now I wish I had guarded my naivety
I have shed the universal veil
(I have shed the universal veil)
A hundred fruiting bodies burst out of my skin
The countless amanitas are doing me in
You’re allowed to take me out if you so wish-wish-wish
No such thing as second chances
it’s a hit or a miss!
And a thousand fruiting bodies are spreading their pores
It’s impossible to tell which ones are real anymore
My organs and the colony will mix-mix-mix
Now my body is the keeper of the roots in my core

@@35135ksg I saw you on another comment ngl.
I immediately got the feeling this was about dissociation, Depersonalization-derealization disorder and gender dysphoria.
Absolutely adore it
iirc, 'mycelium' is a fungus that essentially takes over the plant it attaches too? Like, a mind control kind of thing I think. Intertwining with how the speaker sings how they 'don't know how my mind acquired these memories', because it's not them making it. I don't know if the whole meaning is meant to be about the fungus, but the parallels are fun (if I'm remembering what the fungus is correctly dbdbbdbd)!! Song is also very funky. scratches brain well
Update: been informed I'm thinking of the cordyceps fungus, and that mycelium is what connects the plant and fungus together if I'm getting this right-
Mycelium is actually something all fungi have, and is actually the main body of the fungus. The above ground portion of the mushroom is just the "fruiting body" that releases spores.
@@themement3616 ooooo, thank you for the info!!!
Nope, you're thinking of the Cordyceps fungus, which takes over the mind of its host insect. Mycelium is just the 'roots' that all fungi have that allow it to spread.

THIS SONG IS SO GOOD
The artstyle improved so much and it looks so *CLEAN*
The lyrics are amazing and the melody is so captivating
And the song is overall really catchy
thank you for feeding us🙏
Can we take a moment to appreciate the tempo changes in this song?!
Also, all the hands sprouting out from behind the character is reminding me of Blood-Stained Switch (which also happens to be a song with strong disassociative disorder themes, interesting)
A lot of people are associating this with OSDD and DID but I feel like experiencing puberty as a trans person is equally fitting if not more so. It involves Identity, unwanted bodily changes you can't stop, and feeling out of place in said body, as if it doesn't belong to you.
for me as a trans system, it feels a lot like both! a wonderful song in all
Ya'll really hit me with that good ol relatable 😃👍
"I am not in the body that was meant for me" That line gets me everytime.
Wow you guys got way more than I did I was like "ah yes the song is sung from the perspective of a lemon or some kind of citrus fruit that is slowly rotting and is full of maggots or fly larvae".
Personally think it can be about puberty in general-
I know that this is about DID but I just want to say that as someone with a secondary structural disscoiation disorder caused by trauma (BPD specifically), I really relate to this as well! At times it also do be kinda relatable for gender dysphoria tho obvi I get what the lyrics mean in the context of DID.
Also btw it's really cool to me that you describe your mind as mushrooms and mycelium! I usually feel like my mind is a car or a cafeteria. Or "several angry raccoons in a trench coat attempting to pose as one unified person".
I see my mind as an apartment complex. With very annoying roommates
the last one. *Yes.*
i love this song and i love how her arms are in a position that feels just slightly inhuman. it makes it so cool and surreal
why are all these songs the most relatable pieces of art ever. as someone struggling with bpd, this song speaking about paranoia and not really knowing who you are, losing your sense of self, it really speaks to me a lot. i always feel like someone's out to get me, watching me, and i never really know who i am.
thank you for creating this song, i never hear songs speaking about a topic like this and it's really... nice to know that other people struggle with the same thing and i'm not alone on this. thank you :)
I don't know how to explain it but this Definitely feels like mushroom music. A banger as always, your tuning and ability to make gumi sound so crisp is incredible
Ngl I relate this song to my psychosis. Especially with some p/as I have, my identity/who i am can shift a lot. Also the paranoia part about something being under the floor can easily be about delusions.
I love it!!
I got two ads in a row about mushrooms/fungus on this video 😭😭 UA-cam really saw “mushroom” and ran with it… also, this is such a great song!! R.I.P just keeps producing bangers…
I love how it’s her overthinking and the music slows a bit and the scream gets slightly darker but as soon as she says “I repress my fright” it goes back to all bright cheery and normal speed
I'm so into this song, a lot of times I use similar metaphors when talking about paranoia and psychosis, the feeling of something in the dark and the feeling of not being you ahhhh it's so good!!
YOU NEVER MISS!!!!! been here since a little after "you're an awful person" came out and I just have to say ALL YOUR SONGS ARE AMAZING!!!! Have an amazing day/night
The "I JUST WANNA ITCH AND SCRATCH" scratches my brain
Man this is going tO BE GREAT, if your last songs are anything to go off of, this Gon be littttt
Holy smokes!! Another banger!! There isn’t a song that R.I.P makes that doesn’t immediately go into my jammy jams playlist!! Another one to listen to on repeat! Yay!!!
10 seconds in and this is already going on my playlist, you never miss with the absolute banger tunes on your songs
Even if this song implies DID, it could also imply Dissociative Amnesia or repressed memories coming back to light, where everything suddenly starts to feel weird, you start to suffer suddenly from the symptomps of your trauma and the thing that you mind desperately tried to keep hidden appears, as you start to relive what your brain hid
If I'm being honest, reading all of these comments about personal experiences and opinions about different disorders it's very interesting, like, now I want to use my sleeping hours reading books and research about mental disorders... I uhh, hope I didn't sound rude or something-
Same, but for me it's because I related a bit *too* much with the comments. I've only been diagnosed with ASD sooooo
The first time I listened to this I thought it was fruity bodies.
"A thousand fruity bodies are spreading their pores"💀

This is probably some of the best gumi english tuning I’ve ever heard, great work :)
R.I.P is one of those producers that you know the songs will always be bangers even before you hear them. Absolutely love this song!! I'll be playing it on loop for the next few days :D
I might have a phobia of mushrooms, but damn this song is worth it

Can't wait! Discovered your music recently and have been obsessed ever since!
As a system (someone with DID) who suffers from psychosis and also has a special interest in mycology I love this a lot
The way gumi says “Won’t you tell me what you think of that?” Reminds me of that one knock knock joke. The one that goes “Orange ya glad I didn’t say banana?”. It only makes this song better.
I randomly found this on scratch on a DTA and... I GENUINELY DIDN'T KNOW YOU MADE THIS, THIS SONG IS A BANGER AND I LOVE IT!!! X3
so the suspected vibes are:
paranoid schizophrenia or other mental illness
OR
actually just tripping on shrooms or other drugs
either way the paranoia here is very prevalent and as someone who struggles with this kinda thing i love to see it here. gg RIP ✨
it's like a loss of identity. to me it gives me trans vibes "i am not in the body that was meant for me" "people say i am not who i claim to be". either way it's something to do with losing your sense of self and going insane.
Definitely gives me DID / OSDD vibes. All the different contradicting statements from characters in one body and with R.I.P’s history of these types of songs (Monochrome Mentality, and Masquerade) this seems to be sort of follow the same line of showing the different thoughts and words of separate people in one body and then showing the chaos and struggle in the body, resulting from the situation near the end of the song
I think it’s about Cordyceps infecting a person . It’s something that currently only effects insects , that’s also where the term “ Fruiting body “ comes from , if I’m incorrect , then I’m sorry

GOD THIS SONG IS SO GOOD I'M JAMMING OUT RN AND THE TEMPO CHANGES ARE JUST WONDERFUL
I think the girl represents a person's brain and the mushrooms represent the development of disorders, and how it completely reroutes your brain.
"Won't you tell me what you think of that?"
This one hit a little to close to home as reassurance seeking is a very big thing I do because of my OCD
I can already tell this is going to be FANTASTIC
THE ART IS BEAUTIFUL
Edit:
holy shit. That was awesome.
Another meaning for this song could be changing for other people and being influenced by their interests and forgetting who you truly are being paranoid if they might not like you and the many types of people you have imitated for someone to like you so much so that you've forgotten who you truly are
I know this does have metaphors with dissociative mental illnesses, but I oddly relate to it with my OCD tendencies and anxiety. (I would say autism, but it isnt officially confirmed - Just speculated heavily by my therapist.) (Update: yeah im a lil autistic) I struggled with social interactions in middle school, and the whole "Oh, I try to be the best version of me, so I push all the bad thoughts away / But, something snaps in the back of my mind, and I think about it anyway" heavily reminds me of how much I wanted to please people / intrusive thoughts. Idk, it just kinda hits at home with me bc i also see people mentioning it could also relate to puberty as a trans person, which i.. am, lol. anyways, rant aside, i love this song! adding it to my spotify playlists :>
I love the amount of OCD comments here! I agree so hard with magical thinking + bigotry OCD
As a system, this song definitely seems to be about finding out you’re a system and learning to deal with the initial panic and fear of realizing that you’re part of a system and why systems exist to begin with. I can really relate to this song and it takes me back to my experiences with first finding out I’m part of a system. This is such a nice song, keep up the good work
Holy tempo changes that ruled.
as someone who has a system... this song h i t home- i got so emotional listening to it. especially relating to the exotrauma and memories that arent your own. the discovery of it all is terrifying tbh
At first I thought this song was about someone who had some sort of mold/fungus under their bed/carpet and how they felt like something was wrong but everyone called them crazy so they ignored it but were controlled, taken over and decomposed by it, and turned into a body that's nothing but a horrifying pile of mushrooms and organs.
Yes, there are many, many things wrong with me.
It's passionate and asserting vivid pop dramatic song!!!!
As someone with paranoid Psychosis, this represents it PERFECTLY. I never thought a Gumi song would represent my struggles so much! This is amazing. 1:42
this reminds me of several things I've gone through, certain paranoias, a sort of twisted sense of identity, dysphoria..
i see a bunch of people saying different stuff though, and that's exactly what I like about your music. It's applicable to so many people, and so many people can relate to it in different ways. Your music helps and connects people in more ways than one
that opening hits hard
I also really relate to the OCD aspect of this, as somebody who compulsively skin-picks ("I just wanna itch and scratch") and feeling like your body is "uncomfortable" to live in
THISSSS^^^^
Just realised that the lighter colour underneath her hair looks like the underside of mushrooms!
Yes, that's intentional! R.I.P designed her based off of a mushroom- although I cannot remember which.

I know this probably wasn't intentional, but the lyrics remind me of gender dysphoria. Even the title, could be interpreted as going through the wrong puberty

Glad it wasn't just me, especially with 1:45-2:14
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS!!
i definitely agree, but not just dysphoria. the loss of identity you get as a trans person. other identities being forced onto you and growing inside you
i had the same thought!!
This is AMAZING!
Happy birthday!
the character is amazing!

Wow I can’t believe rip invented mushrooms, cool.
This might be a bit of a stretch but the first part of the song reminds me of dermatillomania, a disorder where you compulsively pick your skin, especially at 1:05 "I just wanna itch and scratch"
As someone who struggles with dermatillomania i second this
@@auburned-phoenixas someone who used to have a skin picking disorder i third this
Also the "fruiting bodies" could be a representative for skin picking wounds ( edit i found a few more lyrics that fit. "So i push all the bad thoughts away, but something snaps in the back of my mind and i think about it anyway" could be trying to resist intrusive thoughts and impulses but being unable to. "A trauma to the systems all it needs to begin" could be referenceing only needing one small cut and to start skin picking in that area "how did we end up here? Nobody knows" could be realizing how far it has gone "Its impossible to tell which ones are real anymore" could be haveing so many scars its physically impossible to tell the difference between scars and wounds)
I don’t think a similar thought/experience to mine has been commented yet! So I relate this song to my OCD, anxiety, really irrational fears (trigger warning for eating disorder) and also gender dysphoria? I know the song’s most likely a metaphor for DID, but one of my irrational fears is of food (due to my OCD). Because of that, I can’t really control how I feel sick around food. And I start screaming when something in me snaps and I realise the area around me is unclean/untidy (again because of OCD, it’s really hard to explain, I start having a cleaning fit after uncontrollably crying/screaming). I relate with the lyrics because this feels like something “wrong with my body” since mine feels rundown (malnourished, refuses to eat, has an extreme reaction to certain irrational fears), and I blame my body for my fear response in the first place- since it acts this way without me being able to control it. If it makes sense, I want to be really strong and healthy, but my body isn’t that. (To connect with the lyrics, it feels like my body is rotting, and people like me weren’t fit to last.) And it won’t *let* me be that. So it feels like I’m in the wrong body.
Then with anxiety, I have this irrational fear of people and sometimes I think they’re out to get me (when they’re not)! I relate this with the paranoid parts of the song where it talks about people creeping up on you and thinking it’s hilarious? Obviously people aren’t out to get me, (I think), but sometimes it feels like it. And that sometimes keeps me up at night..? It’s creepy..
Yooo! I also relate to this song because of OCD!
This song finally got 1M views, Congratulations!!🎉
