about

Sad but hopeful vibes on this throwback indie track about time passing and the apathy/lethargy that can set in with so much change going on around us.

This was the last song I made for my debut EP, Advanced Youth. While working on the music, the nostalgic feel brought me back to my days as a young twenty-something in the 2000’s. I called up my friend Castor Hess and told him I thought he’d appreciate this one, knowing his affinity for the music from that era. I told him that the working title was Advanced Youth and to run with it. He came back with a beautiful musing about where we are today in a way that embodied the angst of the music of the 2000’s we both loved. The lyrics "I forgot it by heart" felt too interesting to not use as the song title.

Entering the music scene in my mid-30’s, rife with responsibility and the sense of that piling on top of me made the phrase “Advanced Youth” the perfect fit for my EP

lyrics

Running on reruns
Recapping the peaks
Freakin out freak outs
lapping up sleep

I will get to it
When it gets to me

I'm timed out
Just on time
Tired out
Time and time

I should care
I should mind
The passage of time

Filllin up baskets
Leaving the cart
Scrolling through death scrolls
Falling apart
So checked out
I forgot it by heart

I'm timed out
Just on time
Tired out
Time and time

I should care
I should mind
The passage of time

A passage to inspire
