Upside Down

Written to support a story about lying, alternatively, telling the truth.

My idea was that choices can actually influence how you feel, or what you see. Maybe a bit existential, but I think it worked to deliver the point. Funny thing, I would use this same approach with the "Stressball Sally" animation a few years later.

the words

The sun looks like a rain cloud

nothing looks like it should

The sun looks like a rain cloud

You know I would if I could

I can’t make myself feel happy

even when I try to hide

I can’t make myself feel happy

I don’t think that I should’ve lied


My stomach’s upside down and turning all around

My stomach’s upside down and sinking to the ground

I’m gonna tell the truth and stop feeling bad

I'm gonna tell the truth and I’m so glad


I want to make myself feel better

I don’t want to be small

I want to make myself feel better

I need to act really tall


My stomach’s upside down and turning all around

My stomach’s upside down and sinking to the ground

I’m gonna tell the truth and stop feeling bad

And I'm gonna tell the truth and I’m so glad


I’m gonna tell the truth and stop feeling bad

And I'm gonna tell the truth and I’m so glad
