A melancholic ballad journey through pain, identity, and the endless search for love, wrapped in haunting melodies and raw emotion.

Everything According To Plan delivers an emotionally charged and introspective track with Lost Souls, a song that delves deep into themes of pain, identity, and the endless search for love. From the very first lines—"Let’s smile to confuse them, no one understands what’s killing us inside"—the lyrics establish a sense of inner turmoil masked by a facade of normalcy.
The song embraces a melancholic yet anthemic energy, starting with a mysterious synth pad and speaking directly to those who have ever felt lost or unseen.
The words carry a weight that lingers, painting a picture of souls wandering through life in search of something they never truly had.
Instrumentally, Lost Souls blends haunting melodies with a powerful, almost ethereal synths and 80's electric piano sound. The contrast between raw, vulnerable lyrics and truthful vocal delivery and driving instrumentals gives the song an urgent yet dreamlike quality.
The repetition of "We’ll keep on searching each life, to be loved for the first time again." acts like a mantra, reinforcing the idea of love and acceptance as something always just out of reach. The progression of the song mirrors this feeling, slowly building tension before releasing it in waves of aching, melodic intensity.

What makes Lost Souls particularly compelling is its ability to capture an unspoken, universal experience. The lyrics suggest a connection between two people who recognize each other's pain but remain unable to bridge the gap between them.
Lines like "I saw you and what you saw, so I know you’re not scared. It’s just where the love started. That’s why it hurts." suggest a love that was born from pain rather than joy, making the emotional depth of the song all the more resonant.
It’s a track that doesn’t just tell a story but invites the listener to find their own meaning within it. Overall, Lost Souls is a beautifully tragic anthem that encapsulates the loneliness of the human experience while offering a strange sense of solace. Everything According To Plan manages to craft a song that is both deeply personal and widely relatable, making it a must-listen for fans of emotional, atmospheric post-hardcore. Whether you’ve felt the weight of these lyrics firsthand or simply appreciate music that captures raw emotion, this track is sure to leave a lasting impression.
