about

Lyrically, I wrote this song as a lighthearted look into mental health issues.

Sonically, this song draws heavy inspiration from laid back Hawaiian instrumentals (check out Alohaha, they were a huge inspiration) and my great friend Rococo Disco (credited on the track) helped add some beautiful piano and vocals in the mix.

lyrics

Well it’s a beach ball kind of day
It’s colorful, but the wind blows it away
Sun while we play, but the clouds cover the rays

I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts
I’d rather not but it’s hard when it’s not my fault
I don’t know why but I keep flip flopping my thoughts
I’d rather not but the voices make it hard to stop

They come in like the rising of the tide
Blow up like the Fourth of July
Sometimes I think unexplainable things
So I go to my mind, take a trip to beach
The water cools my head
And it keeps me on my feet
The sand makes my bed
And I drift to sleep

I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts
I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts
I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts
I’d rather not but it’s hard when it’s not my fault

I don’t know why but I keep flip floppin my thoughts
I’d rather not but it’s hard when it’s not my fault
I don’t know why but I keep flip flopping my thoughts
I’d rather not but the voices make it hard to stop
