This song speaks about the unreliability of our memory, logical fallacies, and ways our brain tricks us.

Lyrics by @djbrownnote

Got a broken memory
Cherry pickin’ fool
Special pleading
Sportin’ the wrong tool

Reason take the wheel
‘Cause I don’t know

Seeking confirmation and countin’ the hits
Never mind the misses
Using heuristics

Reason take the wheel
‘Cause I don’t know

Subjective validation
It just makes sense
Attaching special meaning to coincidence

Reason take the wheel
‘Cause I don’t know

My brain is gonna trick me
