Mind The Gap

À propos

Written, recorded, and produced by Maze Cricket. In this track I talk about mental health and intrusive thoughts. It is essentially a suicide awareness song. There's so many people who experience suicidal thoughts on a daily basis but they'll always seem fine. Very few are going to take it seriously if you chose to talk about it. It remains a bottled up sensation. This month only there were 10 suicide incidents in my hometown, all of these people were in their 20's like me. Post-Covid era has a massive impact on the mental health and living conditions of my generation and it is slowly becoming apparent. The title Mind The Gap talks about taking the subway to see a friend, go to work, or return home, and experiencing a dilemma right at the edge of the platform, dealing with unwanted thoughts, while the conductor says "Mind The Gap".
