Blurry

**BLURRY** was Neoni's sixth release of 2023. it was released on July 7, 2023.

Listen to **BLURRY**

## Theme

In a Discord LIVE after the **FUNERAL** premiere, Neoni said that **BLURRY** is "a really fun one, a little left of centre, super dark, really cool, really excited". Later in the live, they also said that "**BLURRY** is about anxiety, wow, I have something going on"

In a TikTok, Caitlin explained the general idea behind the chorus, saying how "So you know how when you get like super anxious and your blood pressure goes up like crazy, it feels like everything's moving way too fast".

In the song trailer for **BLURRY**, Neoni explained that:

"It's not about going to the eye doctor, I can tell you that right now. That would be a strange song.

It's about anxiety, wow we've never written about that before. Like, you know that feeling when your brain is going like super-duper fast, so fast that hate everyone, spinning in circles. Circular-ing those thoughts, like a carousel. It's like a carousel but on super speed. It's just going 'round and 'round. We've all been there like your mind, your brain is going like a million miles a minute, so basically with the whole structure of the song, we wanted the production and the melodies to feel very frantic and kinda what it feels like to have a panic attack, at least in my [Sidney] experience.

The line that hit's me [Caitlin] the hardest is right at the beginning is like right at the beginning which is like "Mind in a blender, so I just surrender to the thoughts in my head", like, sometimes its hard, sometimes it's hard to constantly fight back on those downward spirals. We always have to, that's the goal, you gotta fight the spiral. Sometimes you take a little anxiety slide, and it's not as fun as it sounds".

## Lyrics

[Intro]

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah)

[Verse]

Mind in a blender

So I just surrender

To the thoughts in my head

They sting me like bees

I cry and call it allergies

So nobody knows I'm a mess

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't want to talk about it

I don't want to talk about the monsters in my head

I don't want to talk about it

Don't want to talk about the double vision I get

When I'm in the silence

The spinning gets violent

Do you want to try it?

[Chorus]

Blurry

Everything is blurry

Thoughts are in a hurry

Worried

Everything is

Blurry

[Post-Chorus]

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

[Verse]

My revelation

Is my desperation

Is only making things worse

So I'll try apathetic

And if that doesn't get it

I guess I'll just live with the curse

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't want to talk about it

I don't want to talk about the monsters in my head

I don't want to talk about it

Don't want to talk about the double vision I get

When I'm in the silence

The spinning gets violent

Do you want to try it?

[Chorus]

Blurry

Everything is blurry

Thoughts are in a hurry

Worried

Everything is

Blurry

[Post-Chorus]

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

Blurry, blurry

Ah, ah, blurry, blurry

[Outro]

(Blurry, blurry)

(Blurry, blurry)

(Blurry, blurry)

(Blurry, blurry)
