the liner notes
this song i made today is about easily being able to dispense warm wishes and positive feelings of love on others, but having trouble doing it for yourself, so it comes off as the warmest hopes you can have for someone you care about, but it’s actually me directing warm wishes for myself.
The line “blessings on your head” is from this woman who i knew in AA like 5 years ago in new jersey who would say that to everyone, and it stuck with me for years.
It was fucking intense to have this shit come out of me out of nowhere and my eyes were leaking all over the place. i could barely sing it without turning into a puddle of snot.
i couldnt obsess over perfection because its a demo, and it has it’s little rough spots.
here are the lyrics
I hope there is a day when you can figure out a way
to let out what’s inside you
i hope you find your place
a little space
and i hope the music finds you
i hope that you can learn
to maybe come to civil terms with the hurt that lies behind you
i hope that you wil no that there is no need for letting go
when there was nothing to hold onto
when you think of all youve gone through
all the warmest wishes
and blessings on your head
i hope you find that thing that gets you out of bed
and makes your day
i know it’s never easy
but i know youll find a way
you’ve still got time
i hope for blessings on your head
a little comfort in your mind
i know youll work it out i know youll be just fine
here it is on soundcloud
i could annotate an explanation for every line, ill have you know.
