about

This feature length song is about moving from Massachusetts to LA and watching my friend group/community/relationship to my social life and sense of solitude change and be different but not necessarily worse/better.



Dedicated to all of the people who willingly spend time with me and talk to me. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lyrics

wake up

don't break down

just get up

there's a life that you want

and you don't

have a lot of time



It's early

you've gotta go out

don't regret

staying up last night

unless you

plan to change something





'cause you don't

got a lot of time



and you'll go downtown this time today

don't be scared you've gotta risk it sometimes



i know it's safer inside



but you'll talk to someone today

don't be tired you've gotta learn things somehow



I know it's safer in the woods



Let's go out

get noodles

it's something

that I never had

living

back in the woods



It was nice there

It was quiet

I made my mind there

but I just stayed at home

though i did have

a lot of time



and I just

had a lot of time



Now it's gone but I've got something else

People that can take me outside

I can learn directly this time.



I'll miss those hours alone

in the field crying about East of Eden

But now I can see those people for real.



everywhere I go

i'm starting to miss

all the things that happened to me



everywhere I go

i'm starting to miss

all the places that I used to live



everywhere I go

i'm starting to miss

all the friends I used to have



everywhere I go

i'm starting to miss

all the people that I hardly knew



but no matter where you go

you can't get caught up

in anything that used to be



no matter where you go

you can't get hung up

on ideas of what could have been



so scream out my name

from across the whole city

I think I could hear it

if you yell loud enough



and I'll open my ear drums

and stretch out my neck

because it's hard to know where you stand

without some feedback



And I might be wrong about this

but I think that I can change



At the peak of my confidence

I had my delusions

I thought I climbed to high

and could not see the bottom



i was so alone that

the world lost it's meaning

But I just kept climbing til

I burst through the ceiling



and I might be wrong

but I think I can change



Sitting in the back seat

listening to a song that we love



though we heard so many times before

and I hope we hear so many more



And I've said too much about my self

and not enough about the friends who've helped me

thank for giving me your time



And not just in practical ways

like staying with you when I hardly knew you

just thanks for talking to me



So thanks for sticking around

I'll try to stick around here too

Let's go hiking sometime next weekend.
