this song is about longing. it’s about childhood trauma. it’s about spending your life searching for that one moment of safety but turning to the most dangerous places to do so because it’s all you’ve ever known.
it’s about putting your hand in the fire over and over again just hoping that this time it’ll wrap its arms around you and hold you back, it’s about knowing it won’t.
ultimately, it’s about love. it’s about the quiet hope that the life you’ve built for yourself as an adult will finally bring you the safety and comfort you always longed for as a child.
it’s a song that has sat inside of me since i was just a kid.
and it was written by a gay woman.
please listen to this song. i think it will resonate with a lot of you.
the first song i ever wrote, the first of many more to come.
