"The World at Large" - Modest Mouse

No other song has made me feel less alone than this one. I'm never comfortable, never satisfied. I'm 38 and have never been able to find a place or a group to fit in and identify with, I'm always looking for the next thing. My mind is always going so much faster than my body or time could ever accommodate. Sometimes I just want to shut it up and sit down somewhere, but I never can.

"I know that starting over's not what life's about, but my thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth. My thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth. My thoughts were so loud..."

You should look into a diagnosis for ADHD if you haven’t already. I got it and everything you’re saying sounds similar to me (although I think I’ve found good people now!). Those lyrics especially, I always fantasise about restarting from 10 years ago even though I think I’m at an alright place.
