In Their Words: “I think in this past year a lot of people were thrown into a situation that forced them to rethink certain aspects of their lives and careers. I know this to be true for myself, as well as many touring musicians in Nashville. This song was born from reflecting on the way I have spent my adult entire life, what I have to show for myself at this point, and what I want for the future. I think a line in the last verse sums up the conclusion I came to: ‘When I die, I want my gravestone to read, she loved the bars and she loved to sing.’ Music is what excites me, inspires me, and makes me feel whole. Whatever it ends up meaning for me as far as success or failure, I hope to be writing songs until my dying day.β — Elise Davis
