There’s been something that’s been bothering me for a while, but I really haven’t processed it. Maybe because it’s too painful.
Painful to learn that people I love may be mean, or painful to learn that I did something to put distance between them.
Some failure of character.
I have a couple of friends with whom I used to be really really close, but lately we haven’t been connecting.
At first I just thought it was because we were busy, it was hard to coordinate schedules, hard to align everything with limited time and transportation…
But here’s something I learned from my failed romantic relationships: if someone can’t make time for you, it’s because they won’t make time for you.
While it’s a difficult pill to swallow, I know it’s true, and I also know that once you let things go, you create a spiritual vacuum for better things to flow in.
This is my pouty little folky emo song about this experience. I wasn’t planning on writing about it, but it ended up being the perfect little songlet for today’s prompt.

We talk a lot about this made-up (kinda) genre of “bummer folk,” especially when it comes to discussing the stylistic direction of my side-project One Big Dark Room.
This friend that inspired today’s song showed me a lot of this music when I was first writing Orange Days on Lemon Street and beyond.
Magnolia Electric Co. is one of the bands I think of when I think of that style…
This is one of my favorites.
