about

Notes: I wrote this song midway through last week, and I'm reflecting on it from an airport bar on the way home from a whirlwind trip to hang out with my brother and play Star Wars at Disneyland. It's a funny contrast, because the song is an earnest reflection on finally feeling grown up, but I've just spent a long weekend communing with my inner child in a meaningful way. The contrast works for me. For better or worse, I've reached maturity on my own terms. Yes, I own a Light Saber. It seems like very soon I will probably own a house too. I can be more than one thing.

lyrics

All the ways I've been broken
All the cracks
I've shown the worst to you
It feels okay
The way I've spoken
The way you've heard
And you have spoken too

Crack a smile
It feels like I'm good here
I think I'm focused
I'm getting somewhere
Have you noticed?
It's about time

Summer day, thinking it over
The light explodes
And I'm exploding too
The future is for the taking
And honey I will do my best for you

Crack a smile
It feels like I'm good here
I think I'm focused
I'm getting somewhere
Have you noticed?
It's about time
