___________
My heart was stolen by a blind pickpocket
In the deep city streets in the summer of 2012
And I never even saw her face
My dreams were shattered like a stained glass window
Jesus in Pieces, I believe I threw a brick right through Him
But my memory could not be saved
It just seems unlikely that it's me who was to blame
So I bookmark my DSM 'cause I need to remember my place
This is not enough, this is not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
This is not enough, this is not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Take you with me
My soul was crushed like a tall boy
Underneath the boots on the curb
And I’m still picking up my molars
And putting them back in my face
My name was soiled by a last call spill
With a backwash swill and the blackout killed me
Sober on impact from a fall from grace
Take the road on higher ground
And tell me “Don’t look down! You’ll fall and break your back”
But that just reminds me how there’s more to be found beneath the black
This is not enough, this is not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
This is not enough, this is not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Take you with me
Bottle, well, or barrel? All are empty
Dug, or drank, or poured it out
When too much is not enough there’s plenty
More where that came from around
Looking up we see the point of entry
Between where we are and we’ve been
Looking up I could say Heaven sent me
Hand me my shovel, I’m going in
Looking up we see the point of entry
Between where we are and we’ve been
Looking up I could say Heaven sent me
Hand me my shovel, I’m going in
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta gotta get, gotta gotta get, gotta get
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta gotta get, gotta gotta get, gotta get
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta gotta get, gotta gotta get, gotta get
Gotta get to the bottom of this
If it kills me
Gotta gotta get, gotta ow!
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
Gotta get to the bottom of this
If it kills me
This is not enough, this is not enough, not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
This is not enough, this is not enough, not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
This is not enough, this is not enough, not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
This is not enough, this is not enough, not enough to prove it yet
No, I need to hit the bottom
you ever read the lyrics to a song you like then go "hey, what the fuck have i been singin this whole time"

@@thegongoozler69shawty got the whole club lookin at her?
@@thegongoozler69 she hit the floor?
@@BOZMINE(she hit the floor)
for me this song means not being "sick enough" (mental illness) and feeling the need to get worse to feel valid ("this is not enough to prove it yet, no i need to hit the bottom")
YES. that's what i've been thinking too
LORD, I’ve never experienced it firsthand but ableist doctors/therapists must be the WORST. Like-how do you study mental illness or just illness in general yet have the audacity to not believe your patients when they tell you they need help???
Like I get people fake disorders and disabilities all the time but if someone is literally *paying* to see and get help from you then at that point they shouldn’t be ignored and brushed off and you should at least TRY to help them and acknowledge their issues.
Yeah I thought that too
WOAH! IT’S ME! 😨😨😨😱😱😱😱😱
And the chaos that you throw yourself into, and the way the song keeps going back and forth between extremely fast-paced franticness and the desperate cries of the person suffering
This song is straight up the reason why I’m not allowed to have the aux cord in my one friend’s car anymore

@@Dk8250 what's a vibe check? Sorry if this sounds like a peculiar question to ask but I'm not up to date on the internet and don't really pay attention to it
@@rizzybelle69420 ptreey much the feel in the air i gusse
@@rizzybelle69420 That’s ok just google urban dictionary then the phrase you want to learn about in the future if you don’t know something
honestly, this kinda reminds me of when i asked my doctor for a mental health referral, and then after like a month of waiting in line for a therapist, they basically told me i wasnt suicidal enough to be waiting in that line in the first place, and then showed me a bunch of self-help shit lmfao
ah yes, genius
Same
Wow, I hope you got a therapist that sounds awful 💀 like you don’t need to be suicidal to go to therapy???
Exactly the type of shit I wanna kill myself in the first place. Ya know, to prove I’m suicidal enough lmao
Yeah... Let's wait for them to get worse we'll do something then
I have a similar experience. Mental health care is a fucking joke tbh
will wood sounds like evil neil cicierega
Damn, ur right
Fr tho
imo he sounds more like evil tally hall.
NO WAIT UR RIGHT
Like Neil isn’t evil?
It’s MY mental breakdown and I get to choose the music!!!!!
Real
I really like a lot of the interpretations for this song, but one that I think it could be is someone trying to get a diagnosis for something while dealing with ableist and just not good doctors, and feeling like they have to purposely make themselves worse so that people will finally take them seriously. The lyric about the bookmarked DSM kinda also goes along with that
This is exactly how I interpret the song
The entire album deals with mental illness, I think. A lot of "I don't remember myself" and explicitly mentioning various disorders like cotards and cagras. I think it has a heavy dose of "I have to get worse before I deserve to get better", but that might just be me projecting.
Also it sounds like he ended up getting a lobotomy and that didn't help...like, at all.
Oh dang me too then! :D
I thought it was murder
Tis a good song for a detective dissillusioned with the sins of humanity, terrified of looking into that black void. Yet he does anyways because it's the one thing that will distinguish him from his twisted brethren the willpower to uphold what little morsels of justice he can.
Sorry, Did you just said Chloe Decker?

Listened to Will Wood for the first time today! As a Lemon Demon fan, this gives me similar vibes but way more sinister… I love it!
Omg literally the same experience as yours
Same bro
I was will wood first then lemon demon lol
Yup! Most fans I've met listen to both of them and few more bands in the same group, like Tally Hall. It's super cool!
EVIL LEMON DEMON
I love how everyone has their own interpretations of this song and the stories it could be referencing
gonna start using “jesus in pieces!” that’s a new one
nice username. i agree
Indeed 😅
I like to think this is about an unstable man trying to prove his innocence about a murder he’s done, but doesn’t realize he’s already cleared as a suspect. So he keeps trying to scrounge up as much evidence to prove himself, but all it does is make the detectives more suspicious, reinforcing him to make up more evidence. At one point he has a breakdown, digging up the body he buried to “prove his innocence”, causing him to be found guilty and put into an asylum. The first half is his rambling alibis, and the second half is him digging the body up.
Oooh I really like this interpretation!
Kind of like The Telltale Heart
condemn him to the infirmary?
@@prismoth a hawaii part ii reference in the wild!
@@prismoth Think of these thoughts as limitless light
The song makes me think of like seeing how bad things can get and wanting to prove to yourself that you're fucked up but taking some joy in it like yeah things are bad now and it's not getting any better so how much worse can I get. And the idea of reaching a bottom and the sound of smashing glass could also relate to reaching the end of a drink, so it's also to do with that ig
Basically just spiralling and but letting yourself spiral, you're digging yourself a hole willingly. It could also be about how as you let yourself spiral you discover like what made you fucked up.
Or just trying to work out what's wrong with yourself even though you're not a professional with great determination
It's somewhat True. The Song is about having to Hit Rock bottom so you can know how you can start climbing up and bettering yourself.
I will forever associate this song with my first day of high school because I was on the verge of crying for, like, half of it, and in my head all I was doing was singing the "HAND ME MY SHOVEL, I'M GOING IN!!!" part of this song. Good times!
Imma do that the next time I have trouble with school
@@ImTired17oh hi 👋 didnt know i would see you here
@@candy_shark hello!!
I saw people comparing this song to The Magnus Archives so i got curious and listened to a few episodes…by a few i mean 70 so far, I’m absolutely obsessed now. Finding this song was the greatest accident ever.
ooo where are u now?
thats great!!!! i actually found this song from people saying it fit the magnus archives, instead of finding the podcast from the song, and from there ive become completely obsessed with will wood. we've got parallel journeys 🙏
I found tma through a killing kind animatic lol (first one if you look it up). Also! There's a tma animatic with this song out now if ya wanna look it up! It's pretty good!

@@crepe-chips NO I NEED TO HIT THE BOTTOM
It's been stuck in my head for days
For some reason Will Wood's music really speaks to me when I'm having manic episodes.
I believe this is song is someone just falling down more into the darker side of mental health and never getting help to the point it leads them to insanity. This is what I take it as if there's an official truth I'd love to hear it o7
parts of this song kind of remind me of my own experience with OCD, like ''this is not enough'' ''i need to hit the bottom'' reminds me of when i would obsess over memories to try to find out exactly what happened in them
I don’t have OCD but I do experience the obsessive act with memory like I NEED to figure it out so yeah I understand that and I really like that interpretation of it
What have I stumbled upon?
Its amazing
the insanity that is will wood. there’s no going back now

Also getting somewhat Detective vibes from this.
Maybe a Detective absolutely obsessed with a case to the point of insanity, digging further and further without ever getting to the bottom of it, no matter how much it destroys him, further and further.
i’m actually writing a book about this :)
Exactly what I was thinking, relating to a murder of that certain someone they reffered to at the beggining of the song, and that someone who caused all of this was no one but himself but can't remember.

1:10 *Timbers: Shivered 🥶*
did i just let out all my buttled up feelings by silently screaming this song alone in my room at 11:37? yes, i think i did
I finally found a lyric video...thank you
b-but.. the lyrics are in the description of the official video 🥺
@@thefuturemustknowwhereyouv1405 Oh really? I didn't notice lmao I'm an idiot
Chris Hagemarcou nah you’re fine lol
for me, this song reminds me of being the oldest child/gifted kid. always feeling like i’m not enough help, but also feeling like i don’t deserve help myself because i could be doing more. basically running myself ragged before i’ll ever accept help.
god this is such a tma song
indeed
Yeah! I actually came here from a TMA animatic

This is an determination song for me, It feels like wanting to ghost hunt, but being horrified to, but YOU AINT NO WHIMP
It also feels like someone trying to prove hell is real.. Concidering the "Gotta get to the bottom of this!" and "Until I hit the bottom.."
When you’re a pussy but you’re about as stubborn as they get
That is a master class interpretation and I love it!!! You just gave me so many AMV ideas, oh my GOD
points, FINALLY SOMEONE WHO TAKES THE VAGUE RELIGIOUS UNDERTONES INTO ACCOUNT AT ALL WITH THE HELL INTERPRETATION.
"it just seems unlikely that it's me who was to blame .... -"
That's so true, I'll go and try to scientifically prove why I'm not in the wrong and then ending up proving that I am
Is this a song of someone digging themselves into debt, or someone going down the rabbit hole of mental illness? Considering the singing, I'd reckon the latter
Uh, I believe this song is about a journalist or a theorist trying to prove something, going into madness and being arrested for digging up a dead body or smth, not sure.
as far as i'm aware, it's about a period in will wood's life when he was not in a good place mentally and taking a lot of drugs (2012, a year he said he has no memory of). "getting to the bottom of this" could be in reference to "hitting rock bottom" (often said in reference to addiction). perhaps either wondering how low he can get or needing to get to his lowest to prove to himself he needs help
@@exhaustedanger damn, thanks for the reply, that's really awful
I thought it was about a mad scientist or a conspiracy theorist. Looks like I was wrong, oops.
Maybe about a ghost denying it's death

i love the chorus SO MUCH i also love 3:13
i have no idea what this song is about but i have it memorised
I can't yet feel the vibrations from this song from 10 feet away, a good sign that I need to get more speakers
Good lord this was the first willwood song I'd ever heard, it was unlike anything I'd ever heard before, and so for some reason it was immortalized in my mind with super speedy lyrics ? But coming from not having heard this song is a w h i l e _and_ just having memorized blackboxwarrior I was s t u n n e d at the speed of the beginning lines,,,,, they're talking speed,,,,,,,
if i knew about this song last year when i had my mental breakdown i would have played this 24/7. i mean i am now but.
The last part literally gives me whiplash
damn jon sims, calm down, we get that the archives suck.
love it!
goodness me this song is so good. even though I've been a will wood fan for almost a year, i can still appreciate how great this song is
I think this song feels like a detective trying to get justice for a loved one who was murdered but keeps getting told that theres not enough evidence to hold the person accountable. even though the detective has very good reasons he keeps getting declined because the person who did it is part of a rich and powerful family so his family gets him out of punishment. So the detective keeps searching for more evidence untill he goes insane and eventually dies.
Its giving villain with a really good motive
Never thought I’d hear nihilist polka
perfect description tho
Mmm yes the perfect song to enjoy as someone who refers to himself as an entity and not human lol
i want an entire song out of the piano intro-
Just to listen to in class on full volume.
love this energy
this song has no right going so hard 🕺💃
Why do I see you everywhere?
Will Wood is currently filling my villain arc
I’ve known this song for like two years and I think I still haven’t recovered from how freaking good it is
Phisnom jump king moment
This remind me of SO MANY FICTIONAL CHARACTER I-
Perfect ✨
you understand me sm
Damn this hits in the feels
everyone: "this is amazing!"
me: "how can he speak that fast"
I'm talking about 4:19
This is very much clearly a western. The old saloon piano, the rattle snake in the beginning, and the hawks scream confirm it
game theory bad badly summarised
This song and all other will wood songs perfectly summarize the madness of The Joker
Am I the only one who interprets this song as a failing lawyer that finally has a client,because they have failed too many trials,and they think it's their last chance to redeem themself and finally win a trial,so that their reputation would be better and their career would be saved?
The line 'this is not enough to prove it yet' is like the lawyer is trying to prove their client's innocence.
'the point of entry' is the start of their career.
I can also see that they go mad over this trial,wanting to win to the point of threatening their client ('take you with me') and prepare su1cide ('hand me my shovel,I'm going in') if they loose once more.
Edit: plus,the start of the song:
"My heart was stolen by a blind pickpocket,in the deep city streets in the summer of 2012": could indicate a trial they had lost in,well,summer 2012.
"My dreams were shattered like a stained glass window": their dreams of being a good lawyer.
"It just seems unlikely that it's me who was to blame": they mean they aren't to blame for their reputation as a lawyer becoming worse and worse.
It’s ace attorney animatic time now ig
Prequel to thermodynamic lawyer perhaps?
this song makes me wanna boogie
I’m a pretty paranoid person. This song might as well be my madness mantra.
Most often, no one will care about your pain until it's a problem for more than just yourself, until it's at its absolute threshold. Hence the digging.
I would say I'm very high functioning in my issues, but the problem with that is you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone who cares or believes that you're struggling. When this happens you realize how alone you truly are.
Are you depressed enough if you haven't stopped entirely? Are you manic enough if you aren't a problem? Are you traumatized enough if you can be productive? Are you anxious enough if you aren't self-medicating? Are you ill enough if it isn't fatal? Is it a problem if it's only beginning?
Aiming for that sweet sweet perfection and admiration in just how tolerable you are, you see, will not get you anywhere. Acting out is what draws attention. When you take the path of the façade, pretending to be something you're not, you may eventually end up acting for the amusement of others in order to bolster your own need for attention and connection.
When you no longer have the will to live and you're running on empty you will be living for other people. You will be nothing but a character. It's addictive, feeling worth something, but if you fall from grace, then what will you have left? Is it worth it? Where I'm at, I can't imagine stopping. I've flown too high.
Hitting the bottom is often necessary to get help. Prevention would be more effective, but it's only those doing the worst and the best that will be focused on, like it is in a lot of other areas. What's the incentive to keep yourself afloat indefinitely beyond having no self respect?
Anyway, hey, someone acknowledged it. And it's groovy.
Surprisingly goes well with Don’t Starve

id like to think this song is about a defense attorney trying to defend his client, who is his wife, even though shes guilty and he saw her murder the victim but cant remember. he maybe even lies a bit to get her out of trouble even though it goes against his morals. he sorta drives himself insane with the case and by the end hes gone crazy and remembers seeing his wife murder 💔

How come so many of Will Woods songs resonate with an Entity?
Like this is possibly The Buried,
I/Me/Myself is either The Stranger for Identity stuff, or The Flesh for the violations to ones body
Memento Mori is surely The End
Dr Sunrise is Dead goes with The Dark
This Is About Alcoholism
I think Mr. Capgras fits The Stranger better than I/Me/Myself tbh
@@altoclef4989 who cares what it actually means?
Thank you for posting the Lyrics to this song, I love it!
I should be in jail for not discovering this song sooner
This is a good song I'm planning to listen to all incredibly sleep deprived
This song tickles my soul, in a good way
Do we have any confirmation on what this song is actually about?
Well since everyone’s doing it I’ll share my interpretation, it’s mostly based on a similar experience I had a couple years ago
So, sounds to me like something happened in 2012 (this album has a big theme of something bad going on in 2012 so I think that’s safe) that left will wood feeling like something was deeply wrong with him, so in this song he cracks open a dsm and obsessively searches through it for a mental illness to cover this pain in him, getting increasingly panicked as it seems like he can make basically any illness fit if he just searches in the right room of his mind. Eventually he gets up and leaves the dsm open on the floor as he stumbles to bed early in the morning, still trying to figure out himself but now far too tired to keep looking, his last thought before going unconscious is of the need to still get to the bottom of what’s wrong with him
So yeah obviously based very heavily on my experience, but i think it fits at least somewhat
I think he confirmed it was about his struggle with addiction as well as the fact he can't remember any of the year of 2012

Everyone is here coming up with their own stories and here I am loving the cowboy western song.
Will wood is just evil lemon demon
i just got a wild west story now lol
Love the song and great video, btw the lyric at 4:29 is “if it kills me” not hand me, hand me
thisll forever remind me of dhmis bc i found this song via a dhmis tiktok comp
3:53
This showed up on my recommended. I'm not complaining. It's just a bit unexpected.
me when i enter my villain era
Fr
i listened to this song a lot while playing rdr2, so now I see it as a cowboy song same with Mr. capgras
to me this song makes me htink of an angle who fell from heaven to find thier dead lover who they thought was burried but they went to hell so they must go to hell and find them but end up getting trapped and go inssane and this is them trying to prove thier sanity
Will Wood always inspire me to write stories about.I am working on a short story right now and the whole idea of it came from this song lmao.I love Will Wood songs so much
Sounds like a grave robber tbh
Maybe I'm projecting cuz of my current situation
But this feels like someone in a toxic abusive situation gas lighted constantly and the victim keeps saying it's not that bad it's fine I can keep going
"Let me bookmark my dsm" cuz when you're gas lighted you're told your crazy over
And over
And over again
And then your sanity is questioned by yourself
You keep going until it gets so bad you can't do it anymore
That is when you wake up and get out
This song gives me Beetlejuice vibes, but like more of the Broadway version of him.
For me, this song is about addiction.
I guess it’s sort of like front street with “since nobody will tell me where bastards so, I’ll see for myself”, except it’s about addiction instead of rape. Curiosity killed the cat.
You refuse to accept the fact that you’re addicted, and you keep taking more and more. It’s never enough proof.
You keep digging yourself into this grave, deeper and deeper, until you start to like it. It’s almost comforting, away from all of the troubles of life. And so, you’ll dig deeper, just because you can.
And because you can, you have to.
I’m a Christian, so I can’t visualize anything sinister when hearing “Jesus in pieces, I believe I threw a brick right threw him”, so I just imagine a guy looking at a broken stain glass window trying to piece it back together, not really knowing how it got destroyed, especially since it says “but my memory could not be saved” right after.
When it says “it can be me who was to blame”, I picture the devil, standing over him.
He threw a brick threw Jesus, which is a quite devilish action.
He says he needs to “hit the bottom” could be referencing going to hell, just as “sober on a fall from grace” is literally a reference to fallen angels, and the devil is a fallen angel.
Then he says he’s from heaven, but it doesn’t sound right.
Then he goes full detective, trying to figure out why there’s gaps in his memory.
Another interpretation of mine is that it’s from the point of view of the devil himself.
The title sounds like what a trolldier would say on hightower 💀
