Can't get this line out of my head, "there is orange juice in the kitchen." In the context of this piece, it is a very deep line.

Thank you for this piece, it is a timely one!

I'm not familiar with the song but will be seeking it out after reading this. Your personal interpretation of the lines does a lot to help your reader self-reflect on how the words impact them as well based on their own personal experiences/life path.

i couldn’t agree more. It was so weird how the words just came rushing at me as i listened.

i couldn’t help but see that image painted in my mind. And maybe it’s because of the experience i had when my aunty walked out on my uncle leaving him with 3 kids.

Yeah, I often see things, be it paintings, pictures, even buildings for the first time, it takes me back to other memories of assorted experiences from the past.

This is one of my favorite Noah Kahan songs. The first time I listened to it was right before I moved to NY and got sober. I was drinking way too much at the time. And I knew I had outgrown it. It still makes me cry every time I hear it
