Devastating lyrics

Some of the most devastating lyrics to me around from Dillinger Four:

I lost myself and found myself and lost it all again

To me to have brief encounters with truth so pure that so many hobbies and aspects of life are a complete waste, only to forget that passion and get lost in it again is such a devastating thing.

The lyrics are about an unhappy family life I believe, but for me I’m talking about my video game passion.

There is such clarity now that it is not something I need to think about so much and that I have/had so many other interests, currently in the mind being classic literature.

It feels weird being above the clouds and having such clarity.
