hey all. ME AGAIN

quick song idea from today, scrappy as they come. hadn't quite solidified the melodies lol so you can hear me sort of be surprised by the chords as I play them ahaa sometimes I wish I had more music theory so I would be surprised less but sometimes I think that surprise is the whole ass magic !!!

sidenote my friends have been making wonderful music lately and listening to one today made me feel like this. I FUCKING LOVE MUSIC

ok - lyrics below:) I was thinking a lot about giving relationship advice to friends which I've given and sought out at various diff points as of late but really wtf is the point because you have to make your own decisions at the end of the day ??? but obviously - a friend's perspective is invaluable when we all do all inevitably get lost in the sauce

anyway, your thoughts and feelings welcome in the comments as always

love love

lyrics:

swimming in the what ifs

swimming in the freezing water

how could you really get it?

you’re a different person to me

different brain completely

I don’t wanna do this life without you

so would you ever try it again?
