I’ve been thinking
to you, out loud
“how far do you think Missouri stretches out?”
it’s just too big
I can’t picture it
how can our hearts outgrow our homes?
can you imagine the lives that have passed?
the people that I’ve loved moved on so fast
redelivered by times endless river
silhouettes in traced moonlight
holding back her smile
she shines in gold ink
haloed in blue
she’s laughing at me
I know she means, she says,
“it’s okay to leave…”
“…it’s all home-to-be”
Perfectly encapsulates the teenage experience. Finding this album while still young and in high school was the best decision I've made in quite awhile. charlesjr

It's unfortunate that Marietta disbanded, but they couldn't have ended on a better note. As it Were is a reflection into a lot of youths' struggle with both aging and losing friends to time, and that it's okay to feel those things, even if for a little while. Halfrican Jones
