about

This week’s track is a quick little number about habits, memory, toil, and time. There are some moments you have push through, some you long to remember, and others still that repeat themselves day in and day out, as long as you live. We like to look back to the dog-eared pages, but the bulk of the story lies in between them. That’s as far as the idea took me today. With the kernels of the idea that I could capture, I made up this song.

lyrics

I’ve got blisters on my hands
I got space between my ages
I’m just looking for a friend

Light from a corner of the past
And dog-eared corners of my pages
Just how long does a moment last?
How long does a moment last?
How long does a moment last?

I got band-aids in my shoes
I always double knot my laces
There are some habits you don’t choose

Light from a corner of the past
And dog-eared corners of my pages
Just how long does a moment last?
How long does a moment last?
How long does a moment last?
How long does a moment last?
