about

"The quiet and subtle acoustic guitar proves to be a fitting backdrop for Kaplow’s poignant, reflective lyrics. The song also captures his penchant for crafting vivid imagery while also casting an emotional spell on the listener. Kaplow builds momentum, gradually harmonizing and adding in layers of sound to add depth and power to his lyrics." - Glide Magazine

lyrics

I said I was going and I went
The scariest thing that I've done yet
And after all ain't it just about that
I Said I was going and I went

The world's an empty house
With all the lights on and no one around
So you go through the fridge and you sleep on the couch
Leave the door open on your way out

But I'm not afraid to bleed
A trail of red like a wake behind me
And it mixes with sand, oceans and land
Yeah, I'm part of everything

When I came to the end of the road
There was no fanfare blowing me home
I crept in the night like a runaway child
At the door let me in, let me in it's so cold

I can't wait to scrub the floor
Or use a knob to open a door
And the toaster the toaster my long lost friend
Man, it's so good to see you again

But I don't know how long I'll stay
Maybe forever, or maybe a day
Somewhere a man with his dreams in a case just waits on a train
No telling when it's on its way

So I said I was going and I went
And I never found what I wanted to get
But I found that it's true, you are what you do
I said I was going and I went
