about

My Pop always said "If you’re not falling, you’re not learning.”
“Not So Bad” is a reflection on growing up, and the role models who’ve shaped us along the way. The lyrics are a collage of childhood nostalgia, set atop a lush and melodic track. Starting off sparse, and building throughout, the music conveys the growth we all experience on the path to becoming our own person.

lyrics

LYRICS:
Little league, swim team and your farmer’s tan
Time is just something that runs through our hands
And it’s not so bad, not so bad after all
You learn to accept when you fly and you fall

Soap operas, day dreams and your garden beds
All that you lose just try not to resent
‘Cause it’s not so bad, not so bad after all
You learn to find solace when you’re feeling small

Skinned knees and pine trees and walks after dark
The tales of the drunks hanging outside the bars
That it’s not so bad, not so bad after all
What burns up today you’ll build back tall and strong

Ski team and palm trees and letters you sent
Lessons you gave and the mysteries you kept
That it’s not so bad, not so bad after all
Because you learn when you fall
It’s not so bad after all
