On the tense, emotionally naked single "Rip Out Your Eyes," Marino faces the isolating reality of anxiety, of wanting someone else to know what it feels like to panic. It doesn't just blame, it gets how hard it is to empathize until you've been through anxiety. The centerpiece, "I wanna rip out my eyes and put them inside my skull," lands with a surprising punch, making frustration visceral and memorable. Marino turns a personal struggle into simple songwriting. He adds anger, vulnerability, and self-awareness, offering the listener an honest look at a misunderstood, often difficult experience.
