My best friend Jake started a project called "Billy's Breakup Party" and it's his best work, by far. I just had to cover one of his songs, because they are all so good.
Jake has always been such a big supporter of what I was trying to do, not only with Hi Anxious, but EVERY single song I've ever showed him. For anyone that doesn't know, Jake is the "Mr. Maven" I reference on Hi Anxious, I'm Dad. So for all the nights that he'd be in the passenger seat of my car while I was picking apart my songs on repeat, providing feedback, I was just so appreciative and wanted to honor him in some way.

What would you think of me
If you thought of me
What would you see if there was something that you saw In me
Who would It be if there could be a someone else? (Let shine some light up on it)
I got some bags left to unpack
I just got back from another state of mind
Lets shine some light up on it
A new dawn is upon us
Don't stop the sky from falling now, I want my head in the clouds
Get way too high to stand my ground, too far to turn me around
I don't wanna understand the games we play Simon says play anyway, So
Oh no I've let my guard down
Go on and rip my heart out
What would you think of me
If you thought of me
What would you see if there was something that you saw In me
Who would It be if there could be a someone else? (Let shine some light up on it)
I got some bags I've yet to pack
I'm going back to another state of mind
Let's shed some light upon it
A new dawn is upon us
Don't stop the sky from falling now, I want my head in the clouds
Get way too high to stand my ground, too far to turn me around
I don't wanna understand the games we play Simon says play anyway, So
Oh no I've let my guard down
Go on and rip my heart out
Don't stop the sky from falling, hold my hand and let's go all in
There's a new dawn upon us
Let's go back to where we started
Don't stop the sky from falling now, I want my head in the clouds
Get way too high to stand my ground, too far to turn me around
I don't wanna understand the games we play Simon says play anyway, So
Oh no I've let my guard down
Go on and rip my heart out
