about

I wrote this song kind of as a letter to myself. We tend to get restless every couple years and move to a new city or start a new project. It feels cleansing - I find that getting too cozy and comfortable in a life and settling into routine or suburbia quiets the fire and passion that make me want to create art and truly be able to live in the moment.
-Jaime

LYRICS:

You brush your hair little girl as you sit in your fairytale world
Climb into your plush velvet chair, not a care
It creeps in slow little girl whispers in your ear little girl
Are you sleeping now, too tired to play?

Scholars book in your lap, point to interesting places on a map
You wile your hours away in decay
A quiet afternoon for yourself but your spark sits alone on a shelf
Are you done little girl, have you nothing to say?

Don’t sit down little girl, don’t turn out the light
It might seem like you’re comfortable tonight
But don’t sit down, take a good look around
Don’t let yourself forget about the fight

The heavy weight of content is carried by shoulders unbent
Polished veneer can still crack and slide into black
I know you’ve seen pain little girl
Still bear it in your name little girl
But your soft even breath tells me you live yet

Don’t sit down little girl, don’t turn out the light
It might seem like you’re comfortable tonight
But don’t sit down, take a good look around
Don’t let yourself forget about the fight
