about

Written in 2013.

This song is about leaving the nest, leaving family and friends behind, and entering life—only to rediscover your loved ones in a new context.

lyrics

Doing everything for the first time, again
Livin' the same life in a new set of eyes
Spin, spin, spin, until we finally let go

And I need you, wonder if you're with me
Gotta step out on my own
(Whoa, whoa)
Sure you'll be there to meet me
But we're both so far from home
(Whoa, whoa)

Haven't I seen your face somewhere?
I know it's not polite to continue to stare
Your name I once knew so well, stops at the tip of my tongue

And I need you, wonder if you're with me
Gotta step out on my own
(Whoa, whoa)
Sure you'll be there to meet me
But we're both so far from home
(Whoa, whoa)
Before I met you, babe
Everything was monochrome
(Whoa, whoa)
Felt so off my game
Gotten back now to my zone
(Whoa, whoa)

If we both live or die
But then in-between try
Both to open our eyes
At the end we realize
That forgiveness is our prize
Evolution is our prize
Full awareness is our prize
True community will rise

Wish I could see into you like before
Apart makes us understand togetherness more
And isn't understanding what we're here for?

And I need you, wonder if you're with me
Gotta step out on my own
(Whoa, whoa)
Sure you'll be there to meet me
But we're both so far from home
(Whoa, whoa)
Before I met you, babe
Everything was monochrome
(Whoa, whoa)
Felt so off my game
Gotten back now to my zone
(Whoa, whoa)

about

Austin R. Scott Seattle, Washington

I grew up in a small town near Carson City, NV. At age 15, I was introduced to Irish session music which became my favorite activity. When I began struggling with depression, songwriting proved itself a valuable outlet. Over the years I've honed the craft, learning how to record, edit, mix and master tracks to professional standards. I'm in the process of building a career on these skills. ... more
