about

"Calibration, get your head straight." Just another personal demons song, with a happy summertime feel? I think it's about dealing with depression and trying to get into a happy head space. I don't TRY to write lyrics like this, it's just what comes out, mostly.
The guitar was played with a capo on the second fret.

lyrics

Can you see I’m happily in pain 
But you won’t know 
I hide it every day 
It’s a different situation all around 
When I’m headed for the lost and found 

I don’t know why there’s no room left to breathe 
So hold on tight to all that you receive 
It’s the same old nightmare that’s here to stay 
It cannot stop when It’s in your way 

Calibrate 
Reconfigurate 
Calibration get your head straight 
Reconfiguration carries too much weight 
When I’m about to break 

Well I’m running 
I run to get away 
And I’m in the same place I was yesterday 
And I’m feeling no one could give a damn 
And I’m falling down when I try to stand 

How much more or further should I wander 
Just to get a bit 
Maybe a little bit stronger 
I can’t find a place so little believe 
Of peace and hope and harmony 

Calibrate 
Reconfigurate 
Calibration get your head straight 
Reconfiguration carries too much weight 
Calibration get your head straight 
Reconfiguration carries too much weight 
When I’m about to break 

Whoa Yeah! 

Uh!
