Dysthymia Dye Lyrics - Song Written by TheObicobi
Title: Dysthymia Dye
Written by: TheObicobi "Jake"
Date: 7/8/2024
I wrote 'Dysthymia Dye' and 'Detest' almost a year ago now, just getting around to posting it publicly now. More to come, have many unfinished writing ideas.
Potential genre ideas for my songwriting: lo-fi, 808s, chill hop, vocaloid especially. J-pop, various genres of Metal, Folk, Contemporary, chill wave.
[Intro] I know I need to find my peace Let me know, just hear me out, just guarantee me I plead Is it out, is it done, this silly warranty? I need to hear you beg for me
[Verse 1] Can't turn away, face them down by the... fake fire By the everlasting sea, swept away, I deem it where my so called soul transpires I think.....I think-I saw you down by the lake Mother minds fogging, starting to break.
[Pre-Chorus] I need to find my peace I need to find my peace I need to find my peace I need to find my peace
[Chorus] Is that you? Can it really be you, I can't tell Falling down, falling fast, you reap what is sown Splitting hairs down my back, making madness of it all, until she known... I make amends with myself, go on and fetch me... my bone
[Verse 2] Really turn away, screaming loud, facing this strong desire Love is love, I finger-paint, show it all, just how it tires Mold me, fold me, hold me damn near dearly Mothers mind fogging, but don't you dare call me... Shirley
[Pre Chorus] I need to find my peace I need to find my peace I need to find my peace I need to find my peace
[Chorus] Is that you? Can it really be you, I can't tell Falling down, falling fast, you reap what is sown Splitting hairs down my back, making madness of it all, until she known... I make amends with myself, go on and fetch me... my bone
[Bridge] Fading now, I am faded now, it is fated now Don't kowtow, don't bow down, don't let me down You don't really know, you can't even know, you gotta go Let me go, just hear me so... I plead
[Piano Solo] or guitar solo
[Outro] The clocks ticking now, winding down to none Fearing I hear the end, around the bend, is where I end Don't go away, if you go far away I will fail to see I need to hear you beg for me

Track Name: 'Dysthymia Dye'
The Song deals with struggles on building and keeping relationships, not always romantic ones either. Dysthymia being that ongoing, persistent mental battle. Depression leaking its toxicity into different opportunities. Needing to 'Dye' said Dysthymia. Whereas my previous songs written on 7/3/2024 'Echoes In The Undertow' dealt with lifes overall cyclical nature, needing to work through it one day at a time. Meanwhile '青い夢 (Blue Dream)' and '青い夢 (Blue Dream) Alt' was my take on poetry, the forever lingering, ever beautiful Blue Dream.

I've also had variations of this song, with the pre-chorus being 2-4 times repeated.
I need to find my peace I need to find my peace
Instead of it repeating four times, twice or three times.
I need to find my peace I need to find my peace I need to find my peace
I've also thought that the bridge itself could be flipped around as the chorus for my song, I also really like this version I wrote:
Fading now, I am faded now, it is fated now Don't kowtow, don't bow down, don't let me down You don't really know, you can't even know, you gotta go Let me go, just hear me so… I plead
A "Come on!" shout for the bridge, on the Fading now Rendition, could be a fun little remix
Jan 24 2026 For the Dysthymia Dye Pop what if, I wrote a new verse for fun!
[Verse 3] Really I turn away, yet I am face-to-face, with that strong desire Love is love, by that everlasting sea, in whom my soul dives into Mold me, fold me, hold on real tight Otherwise my mind flies right out that windowsill
