This was not a 2021 song, but I'm using it as a probably-unnecessary apology for releasing the February song on March 1st. I recorded it at the Lief cabin last November and am, as always, grateful for that.

lyrics

If life's a joke
I've always hoped the laugh behind
It is divine
And we've just misread the room
And what's the point
Was not the point at all
It was too small
And the laughter was the truth

Is it a joke to be alive?
Is it so serious to die?
It seems to me
The truth is always somewhere in between

But here's the problem
What I want is to believe
With all my being
In a sure and certain path
A guarantee
That all the choices that I've made
Will lead me right
Like life is only simple math

Wouldn't it be nice?
If all the wrongs and rights
We clear to me?
Instead of always somewhere in between

When I was young
I only wanted to be old
Though I am told
The opposite is true
But when I am old
I want to say I've loved it here
All of these years
And I'm not worried that it's through

Most times they look the same
Tears of joy and tears of pain
But it might be
That they are always somewhere in between
