Coping with Reality

This song is written like Adrian singing from inside his own life. “Coping with Reality” isn’t about a huge emotional collapse — it’s about the smaller, colder kind of overwhelm: too many voices, too many demands, too many people wanting access to him. The phone goes face down, the door stays half closed, and the refrain becomes half joke, half truth. It’s his way of holding the world at arm’s length while pretending he’s doing fine.
