about

For as anxious and sad as I am I always try to stay optimistic and have a good time. I wrote this song while I was feeling pretty alone, but also feeling pretty okay with it. Life gets super weird, but ultimately it just keep happening. You have to keep happening with it.

lyrics

How long has it been? I can hardly remember
My life feels like a strange blur of Decembers
Like I'm always somehow reaching the end
With nothing to show, only to begin again
And sometimes I feel like my only friend
It's as if I can always see hope just around the bend
But never make it. Shake it off and go and shake it up
Take a deep breath 'cause sometimes we all get stuck
And I flashback to the days as a kid in front of the screen
It's just another puzzle, so I know what it means
When I figure this out, the satisfaction can't be topped
This was always my favorite part; I can't be stopped
No cheat codes, no manual, nothing to guide me
But I find I've always had all the answers right inside me
Nostalgia calling, opportunity is knocking, hold the phone
Single player mode ain't so bad, I'll go it alone

It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
You'll find in time it's handy to keep your wits about you
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
You can always count on you, don't let the others doubt you
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
Yes it can be scary when you feel the dark surround you
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
You're strong enough to make your way and keep the joy around you

So hey, you're alone again. Bummer. Sorry.
The change in pressure suddenly can certainly feel jarring
But you roll with the punches in this mental match of sparring
Until you gain the EXP to unlock the gates they're barring
Despite the anguish that the solitude is causing
There's no need to languish, c'mon dude, no pausing!
Don't quit, never surrender until the mission is complete
So dust yourself off and find yourself upon your feet
It's joyous! Wonderful! Even when it isn't
The anger and the sorrow make the future more exquisite
You won't regret the things you did more than the things you didn't
So it's time to make haste instead of waste, let's hit it!
I know it can be difficult to not know where you're going
Frustrated and afraid when the winds of change are blowing
Feeling like there's no one on Earth that you could trust
But I promise, you only need yourself, it's happiness or bust

It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
You'll find in time it's handy to keep your wits about you
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
You can always count on you, don't let the others doubt you
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
Yes it can be scary when you feel the dark surround you
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
You're strong enough to make your way and keep the joy around you

You only need you to accomplish all your dreams
(I only need me to accomplish all my dreams)
You haven't come to an ending, as bad as it may seem
(I haven't come to an ending, as bad as it may seem)
You can break through any obstacle as long as you persist
(I can break through any obstacle as long as I persist)
It's dangerous to go alone, take this!
(I'll give this a second go, if you insist)
