Waiting 03:37 video
Waiting I was my whole life waiting. Well, it’s you and me, just like it always was. You light another. Why? Just because. Feels like we’ve always been in this parking lot. We’re down, so down, but we sure do laugh a lot. We were our whole lives waiting. Back in school they used to give you hell. Because of what you thought and how you felt. But look around, they can’t hurt you no more. Why are you holding to that for? Don’t you know who you are? You are the only star. In the night sky. When it’s getting dark. That’s who you are. This is a world of trouble, this is a world of struggle. This is a life of patience, this is a life of waiting. And it’s too short to tie your hands behind your back. It’s too short to do these things that feel so bad. Some might say it’s too short to wait for you. But who knows just why we do these things we do. Turn the radio on. Something slow and nice. I can tell a joke. And you can roll your eyes. And maybe this was the sweetest time of all. Maybe this was what I was waiting for. Don’t you know who you are?

about

The Fountain was supposed to be a full length album but as the songs took shape, I realized that there was something cohesive going on with a smaller batch. They all focused on the theme of platonic love with a sense of gratitude. I think that traditionally, I had mostly written yearning, romantic odes and it was nice to focus on what was right in front of me and have a record be about that for a change. A big part of this project for me is about trying to reflect on the years I've spent touring and playing in different bands, mostly punk bands who played in warehouses and never released records. I want this project to be a part of that legacy. So much of those old scenes were about celebrating the time we were living and the friendships we were forming and so this is sort of my older take on those excited sentiments. Basically, what does a punk song about friendships look like 20 years later? Probably a little slower, a little softer and a little more melancholy.
