the canucks lost tonight. the habs lost last night. i’m feeling a little glum.
but regardless, i was given a push of confidence from the most important woman in my life, last week sometime. the songs i posted then (which i snuck to you, which i got into a lot of trouble for) are a big part of me. when we dead awaken is still a massive part of me, but sometimes you just need some change. don’t be alarmed, this isn’t anything ground breaking. life isn’t ending and neither is when we dead awaken.
i’ve read some things on some places on the internet (the internet is scary, fyi) that say they think when we dead awaken is done because i’ve done something new. here’s the thing - when we dead awaken will never be done. we will never not create.
we may want to create things that aren’t the same as we always have, and we may want to create things under different names but the guys in when we dead awaken will always be my brothers. they will always be my kid’s bad influence uncles. they will always be my family.
i think i’m going to play a show, maybe in la, maybe at home. i’m awful homesick. don’t be alarmed, please. life moves and things change. why wouldn’t the music we create change with it?
we have an album of songs we love with all of our hearts and our guts and our souls. three songs have found their way to the dripping cold depths of the internet. i’m sure more will follow, as it’s clear there’s someone sneaky amongst us, even if we’re not quite sure who.
we might make different music. our hearts might beat out of sync for awhile. but we’re not going anywhere.
goodnight. i love you. have sweet dreams.
