about

This song was written several months after my dad passed away. The Covid-19 pandemic shutdown started the week after he passed so nothing ever really went back to normal. I've been working from home ever since. I haven't been able to go out or play music with my friends or anything ever since. It really feels like my dad's death triggered a huge, universe-shattering series of events. I knew that I would have to find a new normal but it's strangely comforting knowing that the entire world is having to find a new normal with me.

lyrics

It's been a long time since you went away
But it still feels like yesterday
Keeping my head down, trying to stay sane
Like I've got a choice - like there's any other way

Your first birthday without a call
Felt like it never even happened at all
I'm sitting around staring into the dark
Writing new songs on your old guitars

When a levee breaks it takes and takes
No sympathy at all
Waves of desolation
Making fools out of us all

I don't like change

Friends all packed up and leaving town
Favorite restaurant are shutting down
The end of an era - end of the line
Praying for answers - wasting my time

You're six foot even then you're six feet down
I'm watching all of my hair fall out
We got trade-in value for a totaled car
And a star is born as another dies out

When a heart breaks it takes and takes
Eclipsing every star
These worlds that die inside us
Make up most of who we are

I don't like change

And it's cinematic, it's mise en scene
The movie's over, we're moving on
But there's a sequel in production
The same old writer but a new direction

I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change
I don't like change

I don't like change
