I got bored and nostalgic so I made a really crappy slideshow over a live recording of my favorite song that my band ever wrote.

Lyrics:
I tend to say the opposite of what I mean
What do I mean?
I mean I'm mean

When I am finished
Please repeat the words I've said
You might discover meanings
Double meanings
Create meanings in your head
Even when I'm dead

I'm mean I mean I'm meaning
More than you might know
I see I've seen I'm seeing
What my words might make known
Leave a legacy after me
When I finish my words repeat them
Over and over and over again
And when I end begin

The heat that I've created
To fuel the flames of the passion
I once had and wish to pass on
You have the passion I'd like you to pass on
So when I pass away...
Pass away

I'm mean I mean I'm meaning
More than you might know
I see I've seen I'm seeing
What my words might make known
Leave a legacy after me
When I finish my words repeat them
Over and over and over and over and over again
And when I end begin
To fan the flames again

There's more in these words
Like there's more in your heart
Potential you've hidden
From yourself from the start
So when I end please re-begin
Don't think(,) your thoughts wear you thin

I'm mean I mean I'm meaning
More than you might know
I see I've seen I'm seeing
What my words might make known
Leave a legacy after me
When I finish my words repeat them
Over and over and live
And when I end breathe in

Begin!
Breathe in!
Begin breathing!
Breathe

I'm mean I mean I'm meaning
More than you might know
I see that I've seen that I'm seeing that
What my words might make known will
Leave a legacy after me
When I finish my words please repeat after me

Begin!
Breathe in!
Begin breathing!
Stop waiting now begin
