In Their Words: “I started this song thinking about my granddaughter and the struggles that young people face when they’re trying to separate from their families and find their own identities. It’s not really biographical, because she’s barely a teen and not thinking of running away or anything like that. Importantly, my wife, Lenore, changed the perspective on the song after I had gone down a lot of rabbit holes where the person was running away and stealing the family car. … She brought it back to the feelings of confusion and ambivalence that are at the heart of breaking away. I really just needed to write something that said, ‘I know it’s a confusing time. You’re a beautiful spirit and you’ll be OK.'” — Randall Bramblett
