Unable to lose this image
Sleepless, unable to focus on
Anything but your surrender
Tuggin' a rhythm to the vision that's in my head
Tuggin' a beat to the sight of you lying
So delighted with a new understanding
Unmistakable noise I was hearing
Unmistakable sound I know so well
Spent and sighin' with a look in your eyes
Spent and sweatin' with a look on your face like
Sweet revelation
Sweet surrender
Surrender
Surrender
Surrender
Tuggin' a rhythm to the vision that's in my head
Tuggin' a beat to the sight of you lying
So delighted with a new understanding
Something about a little evil that makes that
Unmistakable noise I was hearing
Unmistakeable sound I know so well
Spent and sighin' with a look in your eyes
Spent and sweatin' with a look on your face like
Sweet revelation
Sweet surrendering
Sweet revelation
Sweet
Thinking of you, thinking of you
Thinking
Sweet revelation
Sweet surrendering
Sweet revelation
Sweet
The lyrics of APC's song, "Thinking of You," showcase the intense longing of being in love and the helpless surrender to those feelings. The first few lines depict the turmoil of being restless at night and struggling to forget about the one you love. The preoccupation with this person overshadows everything else, and the only thought that occupies one's mind is their surrender.
The song then goes on to describe the rhythmic movements occurring in the singer's mind while thinking about their love interest. They are intoxicated with a new understanding of the intensity of their love, and the little evil within them is causing an "unmistakable noise" that they associate with this feeling. The singer then describes the physical manifestation of their love, with their partner spent and sweating, while they are spent and sighing, all with a look of surrender and revelation in their eyes.

A picture dense with a thousand dusted memories
Lies enshrined upon quivering hands
As it presses the passions blood
Up the bowels of hunger stood,
And with its eager ramble,
Kicks the bitter tears of May
Hung on tired lids.
Tis such a photo of melancholy’s repertoire,
And I the trophy of her rustic gaze
Falling like owls down
Aloft her emerald, droopy mourning haze;
Let not her blue daze succumb my heart!
But imprison her hand and let her writhe
In my pain! - buried in the dragon’s breath.
Like a drowsy euphoria scattered like rain
And the way her kiss steams a window pane,
My soul is cleansed in the river Lethe,
With pouty lips savoring her reverie
Embroidered in my skin.
And still thou un-pillaged fruit of silence
Rears your smiling eyes beneath a halo of hair.
The corners of your mouth
Curl like smirking petals
As if they have been enlightened
With its glint of glory bored
Into the boughs of my soul.
Supple against the roseate sky,
I feed deep on such peerless eyes;
The forbidden pools to my panting bones
And of my silver tongue
As I burst the grape of distance,
Bitter and fresh against my parched lips.
The rue of my wind blown heart
Holds not a candle to thou warmth;
A love made in a waning honey coated moon;
Its golden remnant guides the stylus of blood
That governs the nerve from head to wrist.
I tuck you away back into the pit of memory,
Atop the red lined mountain ridge of hope,
And the poesy shelf to numb my fear
All pale cheeked and drained,
To yet prick an oracle again
And quench a reminiscent tooth...

@CreeseDF

@ilikenoodles282
Their technically never was. This video was only available on their aMOTION box set until it was uploaded to VEVO. Same with Outsider music video. They are both based off / from the movie Bikini Bandits which Maynard played it and enjoys.
