Weaving between melodious waves and raucous pop punk, Talk Me Down is an emo tinged exploration of the impossibility of fully understanding someone else's experience. Empathy and common experience can offer sanctuary but some paths we inevitably walk alone.

lyrics

"You can't talk me down" she's calling out from her rooftop
"You can't fool me now" she's looking down, she's had enough

We don't even come close
We won't ever know

She says she likes the sound far from the ground on her rooftop
She says that life's too loud and it's quite profound when she hears her thoughts stop

Please don't hurt yourself
Please don't hurt yourself again

We don't even come close
We won't ever know
