about

A song about missing my family, plain and simple. I got comically emotional when I wrote this song, still do sometimes when I sing it. It's also a good excuse to break out the ukulele, so it's good all around.

lyrics

I'm sorry that you're joining us at such a bad time
But just wait, because you'll see the world change around you
And it'll be alright if you trust yourself and grow up
To be someone who you know is good
You're gonna be fine

I know the world is scary, and I'm not gonna lie
Because it doesn't get any nicer
But if you find a place where you can be yourself,
Go there, build a house, and settle in
And you're gonna be fine

And I'm sorry I'm always gone
But you're gonna be fine
Live like you're the bomb
Cos someday you're gonna die
Don't waste that precious life

I know you miss me, dude, and I miss you too
But if you wait, I'll visit you a lot more often
We'll play video games and stay up all night
But then I'll have to leave again
And you're gonna be fine

And I know the kids at school are a bunch of pricks
But just wait, because they're wasting their lives on evil
And if they knock you down, just get back up
And tell them to go fuck themselves,
Cos someday they're gonna die

I'm so sorry I'm always gone
But you're gonna be fine
Just live like nothing's wrong
And you're never gonna die
Don't waste your precious time

And I know you're trying and you've settled down
But without you, I'd be a frickin' loser
We'll have lots of fun when I finish school
And I'll never have to miss you again
Someday I'll be fine

You know you raised me well and you made me me
But just wait and I'll make you beam with pride
And someday I hope that things will be
Less insane and hectic
And you're gonna be fine
