SUBLIMINAL LYRICS
i’ve been screaming let me know
how many somebodies have
grown up subliminal
keeping their heart
turned off for years at a time
living without a hope
anchored at a hotel
how many days to go?
love me at an arms length
don’t let me get too close
never see the sun set
spares you
pain when it goes
you kept from the fire
still you burn
still your heart’s burning up
i can tell it’s obvious you’re
too afraid to fall in love
still your hearts burning up
would you never
know the secrets
your heart keeps
in silence
in burning
in seasons
in love you believe, but
you kept me at an arms length
don’t let me get too close
never see the sun set
spares you
pain when it goes
you kept from the fire
but still you burn
still your heart’s burning up
i can tell it’s obvious you’re
too afraid to fall in love
still your hearts burning up
i can see the bullet holes
you’re bleeding out
while trying to keep it in control
wanting to change me before you love me
tell me what’s easier-
stitching up the wound
or hoping the pressure holds
tell me who you want now
someone who’s perfect? oh!
afraid that i would
mirror every flaw that’s subliminal
you kept from the fire
still you burn
still your heart’s burning up
i can tell it’s obvious you’re
too afraid to fall in love
still your hearts burning up

I've probably rewatched this at least 15 times already. It's so interesting to watch the background and see what every dancer is doing individually and see who's in which shot. One interesting thing is when Bianca and Josh come to do their dance together, the subliminal people are in the background watching but when it cuts back to the same shot a couple seconds later they're all gone and it's just the two of them. Another is when they're dragged apart, the dancers who are dragging them change between shots.

I definitely feel like nobody might have inspired this and since I love nobody I do think that subliminal lets Josh kinda do his own thing. This song deserves so much credit. Love your comment too

Every time you post another video, I have to watch it multiple times-the first to just take it in, then each repeat I’m either on just the lyrics, or the instrumentation/arrangement, the choreography, the cinematography, then lying in wait for certain parts to strike me as standout, and then all over again to just simply enjoy. I love what you guys do and the effort and intention you put into each of these labors of love. Thank you for sharing your beautiful artist heart and mind with the world!

This makes me cry so much - the dancing captures the lyrics so well🥺 Sometimes we can come across beautiful connections that we or the other person sabotages, and even when we love something, we can’t control if the other person lets go. Connection can be beauty and pain.

This video, this video is how true love really is. The dance that life keeps you spinning in. Finding someone on a lark, realizing passion’s just passion but that embrace could be forever. Denying that spark, but always in the back of your mind knowing you’ve brushed against the sublime. It’s that yearning, those hands outstretched when the world keeps pulling you both apart, again and again. Yet you always find your way back into their arms. And then, god, the joy! The joy of making the impossible possible! Learning to dance with your other half despite being miles away. Learning to laugh and grin and care when you both must be two ships in the night. Because you know. You know! Even if the world cracked in two. Even if that fire smolders to embers. Even if that fight stung like a brand. You’ll always have one another. You’ll always know what it was and is to be held… what it means to be whole.
