When the world is scary music can be calming. In Foxholes the line "I wonder if it's fun to be emotionally bankrupt" stands out in a song about anxiety and stagefright. The line asks if it's fun to be a bad person and not care about the consequences of your actions, it can also be taken tho I'm stretching the meaning a bit, to not have to constantly worry about every detail and action like someone with an anxiety disorder might deal with lining up with the songs overall themes of anxiety. You could also read the line as an intrusive thought asking what would happen if those thoughts would win, if it would be fun even tho those thoughts can never be fun because those thoughts are dark worst case scenarios that arent a proper reflection of ones character just a smoke n mirrors. The fact I hate those thoughts are the biggest sign they aren't me. In scum the most memorable part of the song goes "I'm scum I'm waste I'm what you want" a person wanting the singer to be a.flawed morally, and a bad person or b.feel worthless and bad potentially being used by the person wanting them to be bad to abuse/malinulate them c.just not have control, not be able to fight back. I opened Spotify to use music to calm myself and those 2 songs were the first ones to play and those lyrics hit extra hard in the moment.
Anyway after writing this I'm calm again one more song or two and a snack then I'm gonna go back to playing deltarune chapter 3.
