You might even call it ‘nerv-cited’.”

Far From Infamy – “Finding Meaning”

Country: Canada

Genre: Rock

Words From the Artist: “Finding Meaning is a song about struggling to cope mental health and traumas in life. It’s about falling back into the circle of struggling to find your meaning and your passion in life. It is about doing whatever it takes to succeed and push past all the pain that you might find when you are trying to figure out who you really are. “Losing my mind, I’m falling deeper and deeper. Love has died, it’s the great disconnect” This powerful lyric from the bridge of the song is about falling out of love from your hobbies/ passion/ things that make you happy due to mental health you’re struggling with. Sometimes we struggle so much that we lose the connection we have with our hobbies or passions.”
