Not feeling the same way about someone that they feel about you.

A bank-robber tune, originally written as a waltz in 3/4. The song is a fun mix of familiar Bonnie-and-Clyde type imagery and morality tale, with the Biblical parable of the man who builds his house on the sand. The story is mostly for fun but packages the cinematic theme with a proverb of sorts.

I wrote this in my apartment in Minneapolis, one evening when I realized life didn't have me where I'd expected it would. I still thought "where" and "what" defined who I was, so I was left a little lost and wishing myself toward an idealized future where all uncertainty was behind me. The "place" of this could be subbed for wherever you were when you likely had the same feeling.

Breaking up can be a tough decision. Even worse if you end up regretting your choice.

This song describes a young man with an easy life until the day that tragedy strikes. Naturally he is devastated and all of a sudden has to take on major responsibilities and grow up fast.
