"play along"

"play along" was written in the summer of 2019 about the disillusionment of growing up through the lenses of a failed romantic relationship, uncertain career and future goals, and struggles with mental health. Ultimately the song comes to the conclusion that love, self-worth and meaning are intrinsic to oneself, not earned or won. With an acoustic feel with elements of guitar and piano, the production lets the lyrics and vocals shine without losing track of the song's story. Recorded and produced by John Lowell-Anderson.
