about

“Stay,” is me finding my way, musically and lyrically. The verses speak about the experience many people across this country had during the 2016 election; intense arguments and fallouts with family and friends. I happen to live largely in a liberal bubble, so it wasn’t a personal experience, but I know it was something many people had to go through. The final stanza, during a very different musical section, is me facing my own feelings about it all. I started making this album in June of 2018, so a lot of really horrible things had been building up and weighing on me for a while. “My soul can’t take anymore. Must try to feel it, then move forward.” A common therapeutic tool when dealing with negative emotions is to allow oneself to sit with those feelings for a period of time, and then set them aside and work to move forward. This set my path for the rest of the album.

lyrics

Stay with me
Don’t believe
What they say
It’s the wrong way

Stay with us
Learn to discuss
How you feel
It’s not much different than us

My soul can’t take
Any more
Must learn to feel it
Then move forward
