In Their Words: “Iāve always been able to navigate living pretty easily, both because I ride in the lane reserved for white well-off people, but also because I can handle little boxes better than some. Iām talkative and good at standardized tests and if I go through dark times, I can keep it tamped down. This is a good disposition for survival, but itās something Iāve always felt self-conscious about, like being good at tolerating the intolerable is the sign of an empty soul, and maybe that’s why Iām drawn to people who donāt fit into this world so well. Everybody Iāve ever dated has been a good guy. This song isnāt about shitty boyfriends; itās about the way you fall into particular slots in a relationship and rarely come out of them again, so if you happen to be the better navigator, you end up usually leading the way.” — Libby Rodenbough
