I wrote a whole album about my Dad back in February. This song's about the people who look after him while I am far away.

Finally got around to connecting several electronic items on my side desk - Kawai R-50e drum machine from around 1995, Fostex X-18 4-track tape recorder from a couple of years earlier than that (I think), a Korg volca keys from 2021, and a handful…

There’s only so much time to churn
So make the most and take your turn
I want to be extraordinary
And I’ve got one shot
This life I’ve got
Some died funny
Most did not
Some went running from me
Hard to spot
When you watch it

merely a chance encounter

I got a guitar. Listen to me figure out how to use it!
It's a song about figuring out who you are... or rather it's about failing because our society hands us very narrow expectations and doesn't give us the tools to explore.

Written summer of 2020. Now that 2020 is hindsight, this still rings true. I'm still angry.
