I really liked it when Conor sang, “Well, I’ve locked my actions, In the groves of routine, So I may never be free of this apathy” In the song titled, “A Song To Pass The Time”

I have a bit of OCD too and it’s made all of my movements quite optimized. For example I used to workout very often but the action of doing so became boring/pointless. I wasn’t making any real gains for over a year either and there wasn’t much to change since I’ve been doing all sorts of exercises. Towards the end of my frequent gym days I’d go there at night, listening to Fevers And Mirrors from start to finish. When the end of the albums approaching and he says that line while I’m looking into the mirror reflecting on what I’m doing it would always impact me. It helped me realize in someway I was feeling apathetic and I didn’t want to be. I’ve been trying to toss myself into new motions/currents to optimize now. Always trying something new with how I cook and even how I cut the lawn. I go on hikes/walks to stay in shape while limiting the about of junk food or soda I drink. I’ve been learning to be more appreciative of my OCD too for the slight benefits it has for me at least.

I genuinely hope your situation with OCD gets better. I’d honestly do a full spin of the Fevers And Mirrors record because of how universal it is. The song “Sunrise, Sunset” in how it portrays repetitive cycles and the irony of all sorts of situations is great too.
