lyrics

This is the first day of my life
Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
They’re spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am, don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever, I especially am slow
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
You felt as if you’d just woke up

And you said, “This is the first day of my life.
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you.
But, now I don’t care, I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy.”

So if you wanna be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We’ll just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery

Besides, maybe this time it’s different
I mean I really think you like me

I’ve been going through a weird thing lately. good and bad. And unfortunately despite my desire to put everything out there, I’ve been pretty vague about what’s been going on, and this will hopefully be that last vague posting.

why?

It’s super personal and what I have to say affects more people than just myself.  I think sometimes this is a struggle all writers deal with — what’s for you and what will benefit your audience. It feels really awesome for me to put it all out there, tell the world what’s been happening, and yet I realize that somethings shouldn’t be so public. Lessons were learned and maybe one day I will share those…but for now -

They say What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas…and this will stay with me.

I’m going through a weird moment right now. And moment is the wrong word. More like a weird thing. Except it’s not weird, but it should be weird. And this is making no sense.

It’s amazing how I can have polar opposite feelings at the same time and it feels OK. Everything I’ve felt the past couple weeks has been totally contradictory day to day and instead of fighting it, I’m just going with it.

That battle between the heart and head is a hard one to fight…

…………………..and I’m claiming neutrality defeat right now.
Though, who knows, tomorrow I may pick side. yup, I picked my side.

are you on team  or not?

this just might be the lesson in letting go I’ve desperately needed.

wishing things were different.

this song probably doesn’t make sense for this, but it does for me and that’s all that matters.
and for the record — I give a fuck about oxford commas.
