about

SO i was tasked to write an (art/alt) pop song inspired by a piece of existing text last week and i took it WAY too far and wrote, recorded, mixed, mastered, and music video'd THIS :')))) and i'm feeling super proud of it so it's not out on streaming platforms yet bc that takes a few weeks but i really wanted to upload it to show the world yano đź–¤

The text I based 'Cynical Circles' on:

"After trauma the world is experienced with a different nervous system. The survivor’s energy now becomes focussed on suppressing inner chaos, at the expense of spontaneous involvement in their lives. (...) Trauma affects the entire human organism - body, mind, and brain. In PTSD the body continues to defend against a thread that belongs to the past. Healing from PTSD means being able to terminate this continued stress mobilisation and restoring the entire organism to safety."
- Bessel Van Der Kolk, The Body Keeps The Score

I would HIGHLY recommend anyone who has experienced trauma of any kind, or who is interested in PTSD, to read this book. It is so validating and also fascinating.

Also, here is a link to some mental health resources:

And here is the number for Samaritans (UK) if you're feeling things and want to call someone:

lyrics

"Why so cynical? Why are you so cynical? Cylindrical. Cylindrical circles. Why do they have to be so damn circular :')".
