about
Completely lifted from the discarded material of a musical Joplin is sometimes writing about misfits in 1990’s Baltimore rave culture. Me Then Now celebrates the nearness of a reluctant participant that bears witness without necessarily ever being present. Always once removed for from the heartache and so glad for the joy. Me Then Now chronicles a summer of near perfect friendship.
lyrics
Hey! you took me by surprise
It’s fate or dumb luck otherwise
Wait, one life won’t suffice
And I’m still learning how
That was me then now
You called me from under an overpass in Baltimore
The after-party was moving to a new abandoned store
And you wanted me to join you, but I was half asleep
In my little boy bedroom in a suburb counting sheep
That was me then now
Hey! you took me by surprise
It’s fate or dumb luck otherwise
Wait, one life won’t suffice
And I’m still learning how
That was me then now
Now and then
It’s me by myself again
And I haven’t missed you just one time
But every time at once
Hey! you took me by surprise
It’s fate or dumb luck otherwise
Wait, one life won’t suffice
And I’m still learning how
That was me then
That was me then now,
Hey! you took me by surprise
It’s fate or dumb luck otherwise
Wait, one life won’t suffice
And I’m still learning how
