about

Inspired by a close friend's struggles with depression and suicide, this track was soon more than just a song. After a band mate's encounter with the same situation, the passion and emotion put into making "Made Up Man" became unparalleled to any other song Otago Fall had worked on together.

Here is the video to go along with it.

lyrics

It's me and this man, the one that I'm facing
We're in the deep end of this conversation
Don't know how we got here, I've seen him before
He's asking me questions, rhetorical I'm sure
He seems dead persuasive, and steady in his speech
He says "please repeat this", as if it's a preach

"When I get this through my head
We'll be closer to comprehend
Fixing this
Fixing this"

"Remember what people have said in the past
About your dreams, how they'll never last
It's hard to question if they were wrong
When what you've believed in all along
Never came alive, outside of your mind
So again with me, one last time"

"When I get this through my head
We'll be closer to comprehend
Fixing this
Fixing this"

Why am I listening to this guy that's dismissing
All the thoughts that I've had in my life
I see it was me, that started this fight
With the man that I made up in my head tonight

When I get you out my head
I'll be closer to the end
Of fixing this
Fixing this
