Opposite Of Crazy (feat. Bloom Twins)

Purple Disco Machine's song "Opposite Of Crazy (feat. Bloom Twins)" delves into the complexities of maintaining a facade of normalcy amidst internal chaos. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who has been conditioned to smile through pain and turmoil, starting from childhood. The protagonist recalls being known for their big smile, even when a football accident should have caused distress. This smile becomes a metaphor for the mask they wear to hide their true emotions.

The song further explores the protagonist's family dynamics, where outward appearances of a perfect family were maintained despite underlying issues. The moment when the father leaves, and the mother smiles through it, highlights the pressure to keep up appearances. This act of smiling through pain is a recurring theme, symbolizing the struggle to conform to societal expectations of sanity and normalcy.

The chorus, "But the opposite of crazy is still crazy," underscores the idea that even when one tries to act sane, the underlying issues remain unresolved. The protagonist wishes for a cathartic release, reminiscing about a time when they could let their emotions flow freely, symbolized by the rain. The mention of hiding behind pink glasses and doors suggests a desire to shield their true feelings from the world. The song concludes with the realization that despite the facade of a rainbow, the internal storm persists, emphasizing the ongoing battle between outward appearances and inner turmoil.
