LYRICS:
[Verse 1: Ren]
I'm still here in this bed that I crawled in
I hope that I'm someone else in the morning
So take this one, wash it down and you'll be fine
Then walk around in a floating chalk outline
[Pre-Chorus: Ren]
But so it goes, let it be
In the gallows, I balanced on my toes so I can breathe
[Chorus: Ren]
But little by little, bit by bit
I push it back down with a new habit
If not for long, just for a while
I'll bury myself with a great big smile
Oh my my, oh my my
We trace ourselves in these chalk outlines
Oh my my, oh my my
Erase ourselves in thesе chalk outlines
[Verse 2: CHINCHILLA]
Sertraline and a sip of sеrotonin
Don't cry 'cause there's a pill for everything
Take this one, wash it down and you'll be fine
The feeling goes and you draw a chalk outline
[Pre-Chorus: Ren & CHINCHILLA]
And so it goes, let it be
In the gallows, I balanced on my toes so I can breathe
[Chorus: Ren & CHINCHILLA]
But little by little, bit by bit
I push it back down with a new habit
If not for long, just for a while
I'll bury myself with a great big smile
Oh my my, oh my my
We trace ourselves in these chalk outlines
Oh my my, oh my my
Erase ourselves
[Bridge: Ren & CHINCHILLA]
It's such a perfect day
Take it just in case, take it just in case
I'm scared of being okay
'Cause all things change, all things change
It's such a perfect day
It's a beautiful shame, it's a beautiful shame
I'm scared of being okay
'Cause all things change
[Chorus: Ren & CHINCHILLA]
But little by little, bit by bit
I push it back down with a new habit
If not for long, just for a while
I'll bury myself with a great big smile
Oh my my, oh my my
We trace ourselves in these chalk outlines
Oh my my, oh my my
Erase ourselves in these chalk outlines

Hey guys!
Anyone interested can check out our REN Reactions Playlist, HERE: th-cam.com/play/PLzwQo9bDDsIyNgTDzE4mcnTjwIY-l0gbH.html
Enjoy!
At some point, Ren and Chinchilla found out that their mothers actually had known each other. And had even vacationed, and worked in theater together. Fate
Really?? I didn’t know that. I have found that some of the most innately talented people either come from like minded families or the polar opposite ,ie logic/ rational based professions .
“Ren doesn’t think outside the box, he lives outside the box” perfect 👏👏
"Ren doesnt think outside the box, he lives outside the box" .... perfect way to describe him 😊🥹💜💜
Please check their other song, How to be Me. That's a other one that grabs and holds your emotions from start to finish.
How to be Me by Ren and Chinchilla is 🔥 (Live)!!!
I loved your reaction to this song. Ren and Chinchilla are a duo made in heaven. Thanks for the great reaction.
Chinchilla is a rabbit hole too incl. The voice UK, I still think that her live version of "fingers" for Hunger TV is the best example of her talents so far.
Ren produces and directs his own material, Chinchilla too. My faith in the music world has been restored... even if without the music industry, talent wins through. Thanks for reacting 🎉❤
Ps. Chinchilla appears in the corner, just after a light flicker. She wasn't there 2 seconds before..
What a masterpiece by Ren
Regarding the fear of feeling better, Ren talksabout the cycle he went through of starting new treatments, feeling 10% better and thinking it would be a trajectory towards getting his life back and then it all falls apart and he’s back stuck in bed and pain.
You are were on point regarding Ren and Chinchilla's connection. He's said before that she is his musical sibling. Word is that when he's done treatment in Calgary he plans to go to LA and Chinchilla recently moved there...there's also word that they will be doing more collabs in the future.
I really enjoy your reactions and breakdowns, I find you very insightful and it's a pleasure to watch your channel! Thanks guys! Cheers!
Hopefully Ren can navigate around the rot in L.A./California. L.A. is a place where most independent artists go to die, they get swallowed up by the industry. It's also one of the most expensive places to live in the country.
@@michaelbradley7529 I’m not sure if it’s a temporary thing or if he’s moving there. I know he was in talks with Netflix last year about a possible series of musical stories, I assume along the lines of the Tales of Jenny and Screech. Maybe they went for it🤷🏻♀️
He’s lived there before, he went there for stem cell therapy years ago so at least he has connections and friends there.
Personally I think moving to LA is a mistake, the place is a sess pool of depravity
@@user-um5cp2cs5j I live in So Cal, so I can confirm. The liberal government has destroyed this state, similar to New York. The people of those states deserve what they get because they keep voting the same way expecting different results. Literal insanity.
@@user-um5cp2cs5j oh, I think that universal knowledge at this point, lol! Like I said, I'm not sure if he plans to live there or what...he's still young, he'll probably go as many places as he can. He's in NYC this weekend.
I would recommend listening to the studio version too. Usually I can pick a live or studio version as my preferred iteration of a song, but with these two both are incredible. The same with How To Be Me. The composition of the studio versions of the songs have a different feel to them that I think really adds to the experience.
I agree. All versions deserve a listen for sure. Beautiful
Great reaction. Love the commentary on the cinematic aspects of ren.
At a certain point in the reaction (7:56), it was delightful to observe someone's unrestrained smile and the undisguised shiver down someone else's spine... wasn't it?!...
It's another Ren effect!....
Thanks for the reaction.
P.S. Please don't miss Ren's "Back on 74 ..."
Ren❤❤❤
Such a great reaction as always! I realllook forward to your reactions to Ren ❤This song to me is about how medication for psychological issues such as depression make you feel so numb that you may as well be a walking dead body (hence the Chalk Outlines) as you rightly picked up on. After watching it a few times, wondering the significance of the beginning, my conclusions were that it's as if the Ren we are seeing is Ren's 'essence' or soul hidden away by whatever pill he has had to take. As his soul walks around the recesses of his mind (the random files are like memories), you are suddenly made aware of what he his actual body is experiencing on the 'outside' (the muffled voices talking). And just to emphasise more that Ren doesn't do anything without a reason...it is speculated that the snapping of the chair that gives you a bit of a jump, is him referencing something called "cherophobia" which is literally the 'fear of feeling happy'.
Another song they did together is How to be Me and it's just as stunningly beautiful as this one❤
Your breakdowns are always so thorough and thoughtful. You really seem to 'get ' our amazing Ren. Thank you 😁💙
How to be me ( live) is just as beautiful as this. You should check that one next guy's
Thank you. I love your thoughts guys. You always bring interesting discussion, with in depth analysis. Babble On has become one of my favourite reaction channels for Ren.
🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥 here for #Ren #chinchilla and you gentlemen everytime ❤
Please do more Ren.
Great reaction as always thank you. A perfect storm, well said. Ren shows this emotional courage again baring his grief on Suic!de. It’s painful, stunning and powerful.
Youhave got to do 'how to be me' by ren and chinchilla. Its incredible even compared to this❤
Love your insightful reactions. Ren and Chinchilla are magic together.
Chinchilla is crazy creative and has a gorgeous voice. Her song, “Fingers”, live for hunger tv is so worth the watch.
Thanks for the great reaction. I knew you would do it justice. My favourite detail is the sound of her fingernails across her forehead when she starts singing, just adds to the live-ness of the video.
Live and one take. Such beauty.
I saw that you're also down the Ren rabbit hole on your channel... I'd like to introduce you to more of Ren's stuff, some of it older but highly recommended. Also the pieces with his band "The big push". Here are a few recommendations, "The big push sweet little lady (live acoustics)", "the big push Englishman in new york", "Ren - Ocean ft. Eden Nash", "Ren - Jessica ft. Orlean", Ren and Sam Tompkins- Blind Eye | M.C. Sessions... these are just a few suggestions.
Freakin awesome reaction to this absolute beauty - thank you for your thoughts, insights & expression of your feelings. They are indeed a symbiotic connection of souls & pure talent ❤
❤❤❤
What a lovely, thoughtful reaction to this beautiful song and these incredible artists. Thank you ❤
❤
Love your reactions! Thanks, guys! Many more than I will recommend their collab of 'How to Be Me' live. Stunning vocals, lyrics, and deep connection. They really are extra special together. They elevate and support each other so beautifully.
Ren's been dropping new music videos. All so very different. All incredible. My personal favorite is 'Back on 74 / Message in a Bottle' Retake (live). It's hyst so much fun! It will be a delightful surprise for you both. It's totally different from what he's presented previously. I highly recommend watching the ' Back to 74' by Jungle original music video (the one with dancers is PHENOMENAL). You'll get to see how Ren makes the song his own while staying true to the original's vibe.
Excited to see what Ren song you choose next! 🙋♀️💖
Great job !!! Thank you lads
Yup, you got the Chinchills.
Great reaction! Please do their song How to Be Me. Outworldly
More chinchilla!❤
You guys are great. Great insight and perspective from you both. Cheers!
Another beautiful breakdown. Thank you.
Subed for much more Ren!
Her music is fantastic too, not to mention everything they do together.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Amazing ❤
A few of us needs this medicin. My body doent produce seratonin so I have to take this medicin rest of my life .
Great reaction by the way
I think that the smile is for society because that’s what society wants society doesn’t have empathy for tears or problems or pain they just wanna hear I am fine
I would recommend Mackay and Back on 74 for totally different genres and Suic*de for sheer heartbreak and to explore more of the variety of Ren!
Wait till you guys hear "How to be Me" LIVE, & "Fred Again Mash Up"
❤❤❤❤❤
❤ Enjoyed your insights!
Nice to hear how well you both interpret this video.
To start off a music video with ambient sounds and a mysterious corridor hooks the curious viewer immediately. The chair sound was a particularly interesting touch; it could have been revealed already open and waiting. Instead, the choice was specifically that the opening of the chair was highlighted.
Along with the haunting vocals, the entire video speaks about the hidden issues and how one can feel when under the spell of these medications.
Great reaction. I love how you see it. Not everyone I have watched gets it. I thank you. You earned another sub. I just love you both. Your perspective is genuine. ❤
Talking of added elements... 1:04
Ligyrophobia or Phonophobia or Sonophobia (Fear of Sudden loud noise)
Is very significantly placed here. 😊
What doesn’t kill you makes you sick and twisted 😂😂😂😂
How to be me live will take you further down the connection between these two
And man… when you guys go down the Chinchilla rabbit hole……. I’m so jealous you have these experiences ahead of you, Chinchilla just might be the biggest star on the planet that isn’t recognised yet.
Ren often refers to her as his twin musical sister
Its live as in the audio you hear is not recorded in a studio, hes got a mic on so the audio and guitar is recorded in real time.
He adjusts the audio levels later on in editing, you can hear when Chinchilla starts to sing shes very quiet so he has to raise the volume and you get that static in yhe background.. when she gets louder that static goes.
It's very much like watching a scene from a French film........almost Avant Garde , but at the same time not
❤❤❤
