Paranoid By Acari: Channels 70s Soul In A Heartfelt Exploration of Doubt

Paranoid By Acari: Channels 70s Soul In A Heartfelt Exploration of Doubt

Acari’s Paranoid isn’t your average love song. It’s a soulful sojourn into the murky waters of new beginnings, where excitement and trepidation waltz hand-in-hand.

From the opening guitar strums, an irresistible vintage vibe envelops you.

Acari’s smooth vocals shimmer with a touch of apprehension, weaving and mirroring the lyrics that grapple with the uncertainties of navigating a fresh connection.

The lyrics ‘wasting my time’ and ‘caught in this hole’ are like anchors weighing down the spirit, creating a suffocating sense of doubt and uncertainty where trust can’t take root.

Acari Paranoid

Paranoid pulsates with a raw vulnerability that’s both relatable and refreshing.

Acari captures the emotional rollercoaster of budding intimacy alongside the quiet anxieties that simmer beneath the surface.

Acari drapes the soundscape in warm, familiar textures, weaving a sonic tapestry reminiscent of 70s soul with a psychedelic touch at the end.

The gentle guitar strums and soulful vocals feel like a comforting embrace, a throwback to a time when melody reigned supreme.

Yet, amidst the emotional upheaval, Paranoid offers moments of quiet introspection, as Acari whispers, “I just sit (silently) among all the noise; I’m just taking it in.”

These moments of stillness amidst the chaos provide a respite, a chance to breathe, and, reflect on the turmoil that surrounds us.

While Paranoid might not offer sunshine and rainbows, it excavates the complexities of budding love with an honesty that resonates.

It’s a slow dance of desire and apprehension, a soulful exploration of the jitters that come with putting your heart on the line.

Acari Paranoid Lyrics

I always get caught in the middle
wasting my time
this is the deal
i’m caught in this hole and i can’t escape from you
your words are floating all around me


Maybe i’m
paranoid
i just sit (silently)
among all the noise
i’m just taking it in
the walls are breaking all around me


You say that
they stay noncommittal
wasting their time
what is the deal?
you’re caught in this hole you dug on your own
now your words are going all around me


Maybe i’m
paranoid
i just sit (silently)
among all the noise
i’m just taking it in
the walls are breaking all around me
