In this song, Kahan deals with accepting a relationship that isn’t meant to be, however attached he may be. It reminds me that we shouldn’t hold hate, but wish the people of our past luck, although we may miss them and wait for them to return. This is built upon with the lyrics “If you need me, dear, I’m the same as I was” and “And at the end of it all, I just hope that your scars heal.”įor me, this track is extremely bittersweet. This may be an old relationship, as the song progresses with the lines “Now I know your name but not who you are / It’s all okay, there ain’t a drop of bad blood / It’s all my love, you got all my love.” Although this relationship may be over, he assures that there’s no animosity, and that he wishes this person the best. The third track begins simply with the lyric “How have things been?” suggesting a reunion between Kahan and someone from his past. They changed you in some way, and in that sense, you haven’t lost them altogether. “And I’ll dream each night of some version of you / That I might not have, but I did not lose.” Although this lyric suggests that this person is not completely gone from his life, I personally interpreted it as although someone may no longer physically be there, they aren’t completely gone. “As you promised me that I was worth more than all the miles combined / You must have had yourself a change of heart / Like halfway through the drive,” and later, “Now I am stuck between my anger / And the blame that I can’t face.” These lyrics suggest the loss of a relationship Kahan once believed would last, and shows how he now struggles with the memories and anger the absence of this person has left behind. The album’s self-titled track, released on Friday, July 8, depicts loss of love, being left behind and feeling trapped. “Northern Attitude” serves as a reminder for people who have built strong emotional walls to consider breaking them down – or, in other words, open up again to someone new. “If I get too close, and I’m not how you hoped / Forgive my northern attitude, / Oh, I was raised out in the cold.” This lyric explains why Kahan may seem “cold” to others, and why he’s scared to open up to others. Kahan expands on this self doubt with the lyrics “You build a boat, / you build a life / You lose your friends, / you lose your wife.” The potential idea of failure and loss is all-consuming and causes us to live in solitude. 16, and begins with the lyrics “Breathing in / Breathing out / How you been? You settled down?” and, a few lines later, “You settle into routine / Where are you? / What does it mean?” To me, these lyrics seem to illustrate that, although you may settle into a normal routine, you may begin to question if you truly know yourself. The album’s first track was released as a single on Friday, Sept. It’s a time of transition, and it’s super depressing,” Kahan said.Īs a newly obsessed and devoted fan, I’ll be anticipating his performance at The Pageant in February and again at Saint Louis Music Park in September, but until then, here are reviews of some of my favorite tracks from the album. “It’s the time between peak foliage and Halloween and the first snow – when all the leaves are off the trees.
