about

I particularly like the "chorus" part of this song. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to put that one together, how to write something that felt a little weird and backwards. This whole year has felt weird and backwards.

lyrics

"This year, we discovered the bunnies
This year, we discovered the dirt.
It was all there, out in our back garden
But this year, we return to the earth.

Together apart. we'll make it together.
But gathered, alone, selfish we'll fall.
It's all become weird. The whole world is backwards.
But it's not the time to lose our resolve..."
