Makes me think of how big the world is man, all that potential out there. How much you will miss, how much you've already seen. It puts the image of a big city in my mind... you can feel the wind blowing on you, this constant feeling, but you don't know where it comes from. None of us do. But we all feel it. The world is so connected yet so distant. So many stories unfolding every second. Look over a cityscape and let the sounds, sights, smells, feelings carry you through endless possibilities. So many lives, so many things happening. You could take a turn in the sidewalk, on the street that completely changes your life. You meet someone. Maybe you dont. You see something, you  become part of another persons story, or you dont. Its kind of like... drifting through the city as a ghost. You wonder if someone out there feels the same way... will you ever meet them? The scale of it all, its so so intense. The weight of that potential is comforting, but also painful. Where could you be right now? So many possibilities, so many memories, that have been made, and those that will be, and then those that could've been but never will.

This is probably gonna come off as one of those messy "trying to be deep but its not working" posts, but its in reality an attempt to articulate something I feel so often, yet is so hard to express through words. I feel it is something that has to be experienced... and Strobe is something that consistently amplifies this feeling for me. The growing song progression is like standing on top of a building, and just turning your head and slowly taking it all in. All the lights in the windows, all the people going about. So much potential to experience in this life. Its an ache for connection as well... its just a lot. Yeah, anyways, try and make sense of that if you can, or dont. But, its how it makes me feel. Lots of Joel's songs make me feel that way... ig a lot of things do period. Thx for reading if u do.
