What song would you dedicate to your younger self?
I likely wouldn't have listened, what young person listens to some as old and ancient as me!
But if I could sit myself down, and ask for a moment of patience and attention, I'd play this.
Even as a young man I had a sense of there being two sides to most things, even in my darkest moments I could feel something else there. Too quick to profess love, too eager and impatient to be part of something other than just my own self.
I think this song, hopefully, would help my younger self understand the need to take their time and be sure of themselves. Let them see that all the fears and tears they will suffer through will make them a better person, or at least a stronger one, and one who is more aware of his own sense of self than I would've been if I hadn't taken some hard and scary steps.
