    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song shortly after I moved to Chicago from Grand Rapids, Michigan. There were over two hundred people at my going away party, and all of a sudden, I was in a town where I knew no one. I started doing open mic at a few places, and needed some music I could play in an acoustic set. This was a tribute to all my friends and family back home.

    Lyrics
    I said goodbye to all my friends
    Cause that was all that's left to say
    I think I'm thinking about tomorrow
    As the rearview fades away

    So I called them yesterday
    And I don't care about the bill
    Cause we found out how much we've changed
    Just like we always will

    Chorus:

    Tell everyone I've left behind
    That home is just a state of mind
    I hope you tell my stories
    And tell my mom I'm doing fine

    All I ever did believe in
    Was you better live before you die
    And maybe this was all I told my love
    The night I kissed her goodbye

    So now I'm looking for an old friend
    With an unfamiliar face
    I hope that she believes in me
    Like a star believes in space

    (Chorus)

    Sometimes I'm looking out my window
    My stare is empty as the sky
    And all I see is my reflection
    And the stranger in his eyes

    So time is how I justify
    All the spaces in between
    The still frames of a memory
    And the colors of a dream

    So tell everyone I left behind
    That home is just a state of mind
    Regret is just the moment
    When destiny rewinds
    So keep on telling my stories
    And tell my mom I'm doing fine...
