“I see the world trough the eyes of a dog, but I can't see yellow”. Dogs only can see the colours Yellow and Blue, which means he only sees the colour Blue. Yellow stands for happiness, blue stand for sadness... Edit: woahh thanks for all the likes, guys-

"doctor I'm not doing too well, if this shit was a choice, i wouldn't need your help." that deep.

I'm still in my cavetown phase, and I think this'll last for a long time.

Me: about to go to sleep Robin: drops 3 songs at once Me: *prepares to pull an all nighter learning all the lyrics*

“I hate your guts but I’ll meet you same time same place tomorrow “ damn what happened to cavetown. I hope he’s ok

"Scarecrow in someone else's garden" is the best lyric I've ever heard

what a coincidence. three years ago I spent a month at my grandmas and we discovered your music together. Her place is peaceful, on a small lake in Michigan. Now tonight I have arrived again to the cottage after a long day of flights and was about to head to bed when what do you know, you’re back. We’ll be sure to learn the words to all of these just like we did years ago on car rides and peaceful mornings on her dock. Thanks Robbie. Sincerely, Evan & Grammie

I just came out to my family and I'm still waiting for them to see the messages. It's 5am and I haven't been able to sleep. This is very peaceful and I'm glad I've always had cavetowns music to help me with my feelings since I was a scared sad 14 year old. I'm almost 18 so if things go bad I should be good blehh Update 2023: I'm out to everyone I know, seeking hrt and doing my best to live my life the way I've always wanted. I've lost and gained so many lovely people in my life. Keep pushing everyone.

so im ace, and this kinda hit me and reminded me of a relationship i had. i was always uncomfortable, and they always wanted more from me, but i couldnt give them what they wanted. i couldnt bare to tell them i was ace and break their heart, because even tho i didnt like them like that, i still cared. so i just went thru it all, until they moved and we eventually split. and yeah, no matter what i did i would still feel guilty, and i still do today

This song sounds like a goodbye hug.

"no matter what I do I feel guilty" I'm gonna cRY

What a coincidence. My best friend introduced me to your music. He said your songs helped him through tough times and I felt honoured that he shared it with me. He killed himself. I got back from his funeral (where they played Jack's Song) and cried for about an hour. Then, I get three notifications. Thank you, Robbie, for your incredible mind.

Cavetown is the ultimate “it’s 3am and I’m overthinking everything” singer

Cavetown never fails to drop banger after banger

to me, this is like a situation where your parents say they love you, and you love them too, but they're hurting you and not taking your feelings seriously, you try to just listen and obey them because you're too tired of fighting, and whenever you're mad at them for straight-up being toxic and suffocating, you feel guilty because you know they love you. I relate to just faking happiness so that you don't have to fight with them anymore, I forgot how I feel. It's all about them, They're the parents I'm the child. my opinion doesn't matter. god Edit: im suprised by how much people relate to this comment, if you're going through something simular, know that we're all here with you :]. It'll turn out ok for us kids some day, stay safe yall.

Three songs in one minute! My goodness, what a day! What a day!

"i see the world through the eyes of a dog but i can't see yellow" sheeesh 😭

"Doctor, I'm not doing so well. If this shit was a choice I wouldn't need your help." Went hard

This is a pure gem, It should be in a high security museum which is like having a holy relic

Lyrics: I don't think that this feels like love But I don't wanna let go Maybe if I just do what you want Then you'll leave me alone It feels like you're taking me home But every other day I see another bone I hate your guts But I'll meet you same time, same place tomorrow An archaeology excavation on my body And I'm brushing so gently They're tryna cover up the bones underneath No matter what I'll do I feel guilty Crossing all my fingers and toes That I won't wake up again in a black hole She said she would send me back homе to the side If I wanna die, misеrable Doctor, I'm not doing too well If this shit was a choice I wouldn't need your help I see the world through the eyes of a dog but I can't see yellow An archaeology excavation on my body And I'm brushing so gently They're tryna cover up the bones underneath No matter what I'll do I feel guilty Man's best friend's on first name terms with God I thought I can fake it but almost I'm a scarecrow in someone else’s garden An archaeology excavation on my body And I'm brushing so gently They're tryna cover up the bones underneath No matter what I'll do I feel guilty No matter what I do I feel guilty

been listening to u for a long time. so proud of how far you’ve come robbie.

I’m so proud of you Robbie, you’ve improved so much over the years. “You’re a beautiful flower and I love to watch you grow.” All of your music is phenomenal and makes my life so much better. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.💖🌼

no matter what i do i fell guilty, as a person with an eating disorder that hit rlly hard, not only with food but for basically everything i feel guilty, even for just being born

Cavetown songs are like a big warm blanket on a freezing cold morning.

This song means a lot to me and so I thought it would be cool to share how i imagine it TL;DR It's someone in a toxic friendship struggling with depression and mental illness. extensive explanation below... The first verse, this person (I'll call them Cave) is stuck in this toxic friendship and they're aware of it -- "i dont think that this feels like love" -- but they don't want to break it off -- "but I don't wanna let go". Cave just doesn't want the toxic friend upset at them so they try to do whatever the friend (I'll call her Town) wants -- "maybe if I just do what you want then you'll leave me alone" "It feels like you're taking me home" -- one the one hand, Town is still a friend, and there's a sense of familiarity and comfort in this friendship, "but every other day i see another bone" -- but at the same time Cave is watching their mental health deteriorate more and more as they hang around Town. "I hate your guts but I'll meet you same time same place tomorrow" -- again, Cave hates this relationship and knows its bad but is still stuck in it. "An archaeology excavation on my body and I'm brushing so gently" Cave is trying to deal with their struggles with mental illness, gently trying to introspect and uncover their problems to be able to address them and heal, "They're tryna cover up the bones underneath" but Town, or perhaps Cave's inner self, is trying to repress this healing, saying it should be hidden and forgotten about. "No matter what I do, I feel guilty" -- pretty self explanatory, no matter how Cave deals with this situation, whether they break it off, address their struggles, ignore them, stay in the friendship... they'll feel guilty about it regardless "Crossing all my fingers and toes that I don't wake up again in a black hole" Cave is hoping and wishing that they won't wake up sad and unmotivated and depressed, or whatever the struggles are "She said she would send me back home to decide if I wanna die, miserable" Town is dismissive of Cave's depression and doesn't understand why they can't just 'be happy' or something. "Doctor, I'm not doing too well, if this shit was a choice, I wouldn't need your help" Cave is explaining here that if they could magically just BE BETTER, be not depressed, then they wouldn't need outside help, from therapists or psychiatrists, etc. "I see the world through the eyes of a dog but I can't see yellow" Dogs can see only in blues, yellows, and grays, so this is a metaphor for Cave's depression, only able to see blues and grays *chorus is the same as above* "Man's best friend's on first name terms with God" Cave has a dog (or other pet but probably dog because of the term man's best friend) that is so helpful in comforting and cheering up Cave that they're as amazing as God, "I thought I could fake it but I'm not" Cave can't keep hiding these struggles, they thought they could put up a facade of happiness and that they're fine but they can't. "I'm a scarecrow in someone else's garden" One way I'd interpret it is that Cave is helping Town with THEIR struggles, scaring away their 'crows' but Town is not helping Cave wtih anything *and again, same chorus* if you read through, thank you

wow. the lyrics are so relatable because im going through this same situation. im crying. edit: thank you for the support in the comments :) i left him about a month ago now and i feel great.

“i’m a scarecrow in someone else’s garden” damn the lyrics to this song

his voice sounds like a very warm hug

there's something so raw about this song, it feels like a wound in my chest, like i'm bleeding out and just kind of staring at the red on my hands. this hurts my heart in a way i cannot explain but i feel like i understand completely, wow

"An archaeology excavation on my body And I'm brushing so gently They're tryna cover up the bones underneath" Self-harm? I dunno but it hits deep man

I don’t know if anyone else can relate to this, but this song really speaks to me as a person in recovery from anorexia. There are so many lines that can be interpreted differently if you look at it from the perspective of someone struggling with an eating disorder. I’ve been in recovery for a while now and I still feel very mixed about wether it’s worth it or not.

Right when I was gonna go to bed.perfect timing thanks Robbie

This song speaks to me so strongly, I believe it's describing what it's like being in a one-sided controlling manipulative relationship I've been there and it felt like crap, about a year ago, I wasn't 100% sure but I still went along with it and I felt like I didn't have a choice, I felt so trapped, aaand I felt sooo guilty for it too I didn't wanna be seeing him while he would complain about not seeing me often enough, I would try to make myself believe I loved him and that it was just for the moment how I was struggling, but I was very wrong Every lyric he sings I can see myself in them But I'm so glad I'm out of that now, although I still have scars and see whats still left

Me: *about to have another day of 6 hours straight of online school* unu Robbie: Here, have 3 songs Me: qwq thank you

"no matter what i do i feel guilty" i starts to cry there..

Thank you Robbie for another amazing song 🏳️‍🌈 happy pride everybody by the way!! Remember you are loved and very special, and you are valid ❤

my heart pounded when i saw the notif and i immediately clicked i love your music sm you dont even know how much it's helped me

Why does every Cavetown song is so peaceful yet relatable to something that happened in my life before or is happening?

usually with music i find an artist and listen to them on repeat for about a month and then forget about them or get tired of their music style but here i am, at least 3 years after discovering cavetown. Still overly obsessed with every song in every album.

beautiful as usual :)

I recently had to put my dog down and cavetowns new album is hitting in a way I didn't know it could. Words can't describe how I'm feeling besides gratitude

Ok so instantly after hearing this I thought of the relationship I’m in. The boy thinks it’s we’re dating but I view it as a friendship. I don’t wanna hurt him but I also feel like it’s only gonna get harder and weirder if nothing of done. Thank you so much Robbie this helped put my thoughts into lines.💗✨🐸🐶

"I see the world through the eyes of a dog, but I can't see yellow" Contradictory to popular belief, dogs do not see the world in black and white. They do see the colors differently, though. They primarily recognize yellow and blue, while other colors are more difficult for them to distinguish. Blue easily translates to sadness and yellow to happiness. He can't see the happy things in life. I think that's the meaning behind the lyric

this one is the catalyst of the ep, this contextualizes the other songs and hits an amazing emotional beat. Every time I listen to your music, like sit down and actively listen and do nothing else I get chills. Thanks for contextualizing all of the songs of my life, thank you for being the emotional anchor that brings me full circle, thanks for the life you breathe into all that you share.

"i hate your guts but i'll meet you same time same place tomorrow" me going to school:

as someone on the aromantic spectrum... this hits. Trying to fake it? Feeling guilty? People saying you'll die alone? yup yis and yes

For 2 years now I’ve been listening to this song through every single panic attack and it helped me every single time

I swear to god i don't feel this at any other artist, when he releases a new song and i listen to it it feels like "omfg this is the one" and shivers travel through my whole body

I'm just realizing, after hearing this song many times,..that it is not about a Romantic relationship, as it is about a relationship between a therapist and client, ..the struggle between what you Want to learn about yourself,...and what you Don't...

Haven't finish listening it but I know it's gonna be a master piece 😌❤️

Ik this song can be about realshionshop but I feel as though it could be perceived as a song about bad mental health too and unhealthy coping mechanisms

"if this shit was a choice I wouldn't need your help" lyrics like these make me love robbie more and more every day

I think it’s interesting how everyone thinks of this as a song about a toxic relationship of some sort, playing out. For me, it’s a battle with myself. this is my overthinking mind trying to get through each day and not just completely shutting down around others. Knowing I’ll never be good enough for the ones who rely on me most and hoping that one day, this constant dread will leave my heart. Not being able to feel the way other people feel and not being able to do basic day to day things, all while disappointing everyone in the process. No one understands my brain and I’m too scared to ask for help.

I listen to your songs when I’m crying my feelings out.😪

OKAY IM IN SO MUCH PAIN RIGHT NOW FROM AN INJURY AND WAS TRYING TO CALM DOWN AND THIS CAME OUT, so thank you Robbie.

You’re feeding us so well omg first the youre gonna wish you believed me music video now this 😭

robbie is the only artist who i consistently like all of his songs. im so grateful he exists

Robbies is getting more talented every day, how is it even possible

5 words. mentally and emotionally abusive relationship. tell your story? my goal here is to let people know they aren't alone. we've all got not just your back, but your everything

Every single one of their songs is way too relatable.

6 dislikes are from the people who can't stop crying so hit the wrong button.

I'm in love with the little inhales before each line

I discovered Cavetown’s music a year ago when I was going through a really hard time cuz my best friend and I got into an argument and hadn’t talked in months, not only did his music help me, but also his videos, seeing how he gets so happy when talking about a big he and Chloe found made me realize that I should try to appreciate the little things in life, my friend and I are talking again, and everything’s going ok (kinda, school is very stressful and sometimes I feel like my friends don’t care about me, but I usually get over that quickly and notice that they do care)

I love the illustration. The color is darker on the dogs head representing anxiety, there's pink on the chest representing the heart. This just hits diffrent once you'll notice that, although this song is relatable and perfect enough even without seeing that.

I’m gonna just start off with thank you because that’s the word that comes to my mind when I think about Robbies songs. They have all just made a light in my day and I don’t know how to say how thankful I am for your music it calms me down when I have panic attacks and it helped me through my depression. Thank you much for your music and saving my mental health - From: Me

currently crying at 6 am this song hits so hard, idk how to explain it AA

I get some Devil Town and Green vibes from this song. Love this Robbie!

this song means so much to me already, robbie, you will never know what your music means to me

i usually sing along in harmony to cavetowns songs bc the melodies tend to be a little too deep for my comfort, and ive noticed that every last one of his songs has such an angelic harmony. not to mention, half the time he's singing the angelic harmony. just one of the many reasons cavetown is my favorite artist

my favourite cavetown song :)

“archeology excavation on my body” idk i love that lyric so much-

POGGERS Also once again my feelings and life have been described in a song yay this is calling me out lmao ✨✨🏳️‍🌈also happy pride uwuwu

Listening to Cavetown is like coming home after a very long exhausting day, just something so soothing about his voice ✨

This is just what I needed with my late night crying session. Robbies music never fails to make me feel at home, thank you

this is going on my melancholy playlist i swear.

AYUDA NO PUEDO DEJAR DE OÍRLA, ES ARTE

THIS IS SUCH A GOOD SONG SO FAR LOVE YOUR MUSIC IS ASWOME ALSO HAPPY PRIDE MONTH🏳️‍🌈👋😁

Another wave of cavetown music!! Hooray!

"Man's best friend on first name terms with God" HOLY shit that's such a good line wowza

the lyrics are just- ✨deeper than the atlantic ocean✨

I can’t put the feeling over half of the music Robbie creates into words but I can try. It just reminds me of autumn just as a whole, I didn’t even even find their music in autumn or anything, it’s just the soft sound of so much of it, when I listen to their music I like to close my eyes and just think of a large field in like mid-October, the way it smells and looks, just taking in the autumn breeze while a song by cavetown plays, and the weather is so perfect, it’s not too warm but perfect hoodie weather.

Who else been a fan of cavetown for 4 years

This really helped me become more of an ally to the ace and aro community. Thank you robbie

“no matter what i do i feel guilty” hits too close to home :((

Who needs sleep when CaveTown uploads? Love the music keep going strong ❤️

I now know what song to give people when they ask my favorite song

ever since this song came out it's truly been my theme song

Came back to this song after a while after feeling guilty for something I did. It’s a trivial, small fault that happened by pure forgetfulness but my heart aches cause I love her so much. Just trying to do my best to get over it :)

You don’t know how you dropping music now changed the course of my night. I have anxiety and today is one of those nights, this is very comforting and extremely relatable. Thank you Robbie🧡

this is the first thing i see on my birthday a nice gift for sure

Is it just me or is every song he releases just.. MAGICAL.

I feel so safe listening to your music, just hearing it feels like a nice long hug, thank so much

This thanksgiving I’m thankful for Robbie ❤️

Cavetown is the artist I want to share to the world but I, as well, just want to keep to myself. 灬º‿º灬♡

This really feels like how it is to be closeted (I'm pansexual) when your mom keeps saying how glad she is that all her kids are straight and without mental problems. (Which are both wrong btw) I have adhd and dyscalclia and I like all genders. I always feel so guilty when she says that truly.....and it doesn't help when she tells me that 'those' people are all going to hell for loving differently... thanks for listening if you've made it this far :,)

i love this man ive listen to him for about 5 years love him!

I’ve been listening for the past 5 years and I’m proud of how far you’ve come

you’re so talented when it comes to lyrics, that’s one of my favorite parts about your music :)))))

don't mind me I'm just really happy because my favorite guy uploaded multiple songs during an anxiety attack once again, Robbie just casually saving and making my life better

something i love about robbies music is that you can take so many different meanings from one song and I think that's beautiful. This song for me made me think of a past relationship with someone where they used me up but I felt guilty for asking anything of them. and the line "mans best friends on first name terms with god. I thought I could fake it but I'm not." as a non-beliver- this is just exactly what I feel when I'm reminded of my religious trauma. Ive seen so many things taken from robbies music and I feel that's why I'm so attracted to his music and people who love it. so many different stories! truly a masterpeice
