"I got so tired of discussing my future, I've started avoiding the people I love. Evenings of silence and mornings of nausea" are lines I can definitely relate to. Why don't you own a house? Why don't you drive? Why don't you have kids? When are you going to do this? When are you going to do that? Etc. Etc. It is such a great line.
The themes run through the song and album with slice of life imagery to keep them relevant and
resonant. Nausea is a piano-jam reminiscent of something
off Scrambles, makes the chorus feel soaked in
anxiety and desperation. It is a great song at making you feel not alone and like others go through these feelings and days also.
A vision of walking around and imagining my Walkman headphones were actually giant speakers accompanying me forcing the world into dancing and performing their tasks to my music. If I had giant speakers up in the sky blasting my own music then everywhere I went people would have to listen to my music and the world would have a uniform emotion, a sort of interconnectedness. Like an unrelenting soundtrack to which everyone must acquiesce… These are my speakers in the sky.
