Whim from Thorny Tree by Keegan Clark
Aaaaaaand another song about my insecurities woot woot!! This kinda has a more lofi/hyperpop vibe to it. It opens with a really cool vocoded chorus with a built-in high to low end fader attached to the synth carrier. Like Meek, this song delves into my self-doubt in relation to my attention deficits. But this time, it's in the context of social anxiety and the need to seek affirmation in others because you lack the confidence to do it yourself.

Lyrics
I need time to process what you said to me
I never asked for your opinion, I ask for permission
Even when I'm the captain of my own ship
I bend to the whim of everyone else
Skip a beat, kiss their feet
And they treat me like I deserve much better, and I know they're right
I need time to process what you said to me
I never asked for your opinion, I ask for permission
Judgement, confusion
Patience, acceptance
Judgement, confusion
Patience, acceptance
Even when I'm the captain of my own ship
I bend to the whim of everyone else
Skip a beat, kiss their feet
And they treat me like I deserve much better, and I know they're right
Why am I second-guessing everything I say
It's like I'm a victim of my own plague
Tell myself I need help
All I really want is validation for my own opinion, and it's clear as day
I need time to process what you said to me
I never asked for your opinion, I ask for permission
Judgement, confusion
Patience, acceptance
