Story Behind the Song
It was a song about realizing I was an adult (kind of scary) as much as it was about leaving my high school friends behind, The song took a long time to record. Originally it took about four recording sessions, but i didn't feel like it was working so i rewrote the vocal melody and lyrics and we fixed it. So it took roughly 2 months.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm left with new reason,
Distilled loved cliches,
Found where I left them,
Hardly the same,
[Prechorus]
And this free love is hard (x3)
[Chorus]
White lies black sand,
Will burn broken hands (x2)
[Verse 2]
I'm closer to nothing,
Than I've ever been,
When everything is something,
You're my only friends,
[Prechorus]
[Chorus]
Everyones leaving,
Me behind,
Devoid of my stature,
Fits me just fine,
[Prechorus]
[Chorus]
