about
I wrote ‘My Old Friends’ at the beginning of July. My lease had just run out and, not knowing what to do next, I moved back in with my Mom. I didn’t know where I wanted to be and I was struggling, needing a sense of home and not knowing where to get it.
I grew up in Boston but have lived in Western Massachusetts since I was eighteen. I’ve fallen in love with the physical, as well as mental, space and presence I’ve found living in small town Massachusetts.
‘My Old Friends’ is about figuring out what home is. It’s about realizing that the place I'd just left, the place I thought I was done with, was still where I wanted to be.
lyrics
Lately I’ve been feeling lost
My minds
Made up
My bags are packed
I’m gone
And leaving this town
I’ve been feeling so afraid
Of losing time and wasting all my youth
On being young
I ain’t talking ‘bout
The way that things been goin’ dear
I’ve been thinking ‘bout
The future every day
There’s a part of me
That always wants the answers
I should just try
Living in the moment for a change
Take me out to see the country
My old friends in western massachusetts know
It’s the only place i’ve ever called home
I ain’t talkin’ bout the way that things been goin’ dear
I’ve been thinking bout my constant need to change
Every month it seems
I’m wearing different outfits
And my fashion sense
Reflects my mental state
Take me out to see the country
My old friends in Western Massachusetts thrive
I want to live a simpler life
I ain’t talkin’ bout
The ways that things been shapin’ up
I’m just trying
Not to lose myself most days
I’m delusional if I think there’s an answer
Round the corner
If it’s there
It’s miles away
