Mood Swings

Hollyn keeps instability itself the subject of "Mood Swings" rather than settling on a single cause — "know what I want, at least I thought that I did, but maybe I don't know, there I go again." The uncertainty stands on its own, treated as real rather than a symptom pointing to something else.

"Second guessin' is my second language, 'cause now I can't focus on what I've been chasin', all my expectations just hallucination, I guess my dreams are in a mood swing" keeps the confusion specifically about direction and purpose rather than emotion in general. "Highs and lows, all this back and forth is out of my control" names the lack of control plainly rather than pretending to have already found a fix.

"This don't feel right, I need sunlight to follow me, I didn't used to be full of anxiety" closes the song on a comparison to an earlier, steadier self, naming anxiety specifically as the new and unwelcome addition rather than treating the whole song's instability as unexplainable.
