about

‘Disquietude’ is Charlie’s forlorn response to the way performing ‘Low Fidelity’ makes him feel. Vulnerability and sincerity is at the forefront here, as the piece is deliberately engineered to be less than what it is capable of, a comment on how detrimental anxiety can be to a performance. To reflect this, ‘Disquietude’ can often be muddy, out of time and unbalanced, and is limited to only instruments that Charlie can play, exemplifying the personal nature of the song. As an antithesis, the Form of the song reflects that of ‘Low Fidelity’ with an emphatic build to match and recurring themes of regret and isolation.

lyrics

I am a writer
I don’t live up here
I have no desire
and I don't want your cheer
your cheer
please cheer

She is a lighter
so pass the cigarette
she has no desires
hear my great love as I fall
as I fall
as I fall



Take stock at the liar
there’s a Judas in me
flee fear for the fire
tearing it all to the ground
let me down
let me down

Let me down x11

I’m not fearing it all!

So here I lie in iron
don’t ask me to play
in the green room crying
I really hate it up here
so let me fall
let me fall
