about

Songs are strange. A song crystalizes a moment in time. Write enough of them and you’ll find yourself traveling through the same moments again and again -- still acting out old feelings, battling the same fears and anxieties. Still missing the same person. When I wrote ‘I-89’, I felt like I myself had been crystalized. Every night, I’d step on stage, relive the same feelings, and then drive home. Do it all again the next day.

lyrics

It started snowing on I-89 tonight, snowflakes in the cold Vermont air. They drifted down onto my window and I watched them sit there, just going nowhere. I was driving from the aftermath; another show. Cold and nowhere. All my friends were there. That's how it goes: sing the same old songs I sang a year ago, think the same damn thoughts I thought a year ago. And then drive home. Should I head Southbound while the roads are clear? I never managed more than thinking it. No, I'll stay North and keep pretending. There's a girl in New York City. I wonder if it snowed there, too.
