The first track off of “The Year In Hibernation”, “Posters” opens with a theme of finding oneself and discovering one’s true personality. The song outlines significant parts of Trevor’s life that went along with these theme of searching, discovery, and change.
The track starts off slow and ambient...
When I was only 9 years old
I had a lawyers mouth
But without the law or without the education or motivation
I knew what I wanted to be (wanted to be)
Even though each year it never was the same vocation
I started getting older I took it on myself
To find out why I'm the way that I am
But I can't find a conclusion
Though I think I'm getting closer
I know I'm getting closer
My whole wall is filled with posters
My whole life is filled with posters
I used to be outspoken doing anything for someone's attention
And when that changed I guess you thought
That I was no longer me
Although I finally found me
So take the other bodies
And put them by your TV
You'll make real friends quickly
You'll make real friends quickly
But not me
