    Notice that as the song progresses.. the visualization of himself disintegrates as he sings.. "on and on the feelings burst and then they fall.." his reality destabilizes as he spacing out. Just Beautiful. A Masterpiece.

    hippo campus is actually a part of the brain that holds memories i think.so its pretty cool to see all the frames are full of scribbles and shapes like trying to forget a terrible memory, or trying to remember a really good one. amazing song too really got me in my feels lol

      The hippocampus is in control of long term memory recollection. When you remember something by how it felt at the time, that's your hippocampus doing its thing. When you smell a smell and you remember another time, that's the hippocampus again. And if you drink enough alcohol, you can actually shut down your hippocampus while you're awake, which means you'll only be able to remember things from roughly half a minute ago - that's where the term 'black out drunk' comes from, even though you aren't literally blacked out. Anyone who's been on a successful pub crawl knows the feeling.

    This song captures the feeling of depression and giving up so well. Especially after a relationship gone haywire, this song can continue to pull on heartstrings and bring back memories, yet still bring me to put it on repeat.
    It's deep and I wanna know one thing...

    When I forgot you, you came to mind
    Every trouble, back in your eyes and
    It's all cyclical, so why even try?
    Why even try to change?
    You're yourself way more than I am
    Being friends was in the palm of my hand
    But I let it fall and break, so why even try?
    Why even try to mend?
    On and on
    The feelings burst and then they fall
    Until later on
    We walk it back and patch things up
    Soon it will all disappear
    Maybe I will miss your voice in my ear but
    I can’t go back now so why even try
    Why even try to hear
    No more us
    No more we
    No more you
    No more me
    On and on (No more us)
    The feelings burst and then they fall (no more we)
    Until later on (no more you)
    We walk it back and patch things up (no more me)
    When I forgot you you came to mind
    Every trouble back in your eyes and
    I can’t go back now so why even try
    You can’t go back now so why even try, no
    We can’t go back now so why even try
    Why even try to change

    This is what my mind looks like when I listen to music, overthink about depressing crap because I'm a depressed mess of an excuse for a human being, or when I have fun with friends. It's messy, colorful, and full of fun or depressing blotches. I like closing my eyes and watching my imagination drift off. What I think about isn't concrete. They aren't distinct shapes and people, but rather a full mess of shapes and colors that morphs into people, and then collapses in on itself at 100 frames per second, leaving me with nothing to imagine but the beat of the music I listen to because thinking and focusing at one thing is often difficult for me. I'll be thinking of everything, and my mind gets tired enough to finally relax and just bring out shapes and colors that matches the music. I'm sure this is a normal thing for other people. Imaginations could never be as vivid as Jake the dog's. It was trippy watching the video because I would've imagined something similar if I only listened to the audio.
    I know this is completely unrelated to the song. I like this song. It's nice and the video goes well with the music.
