This song is about people’s tendency to talk a big game about how they’re going to change their lives and leave their stagnant pasts and habits behind, but in reality they are resigned to the patterns they’ve fallen into and aren’t willing to put in the effort to follow through with their plans. Not only that, but they may even resent the few who manage to get out like they said they would. More skilled songwriting from this young country artist (this is another song she wrote with Shane Mack, whose music I’ve posted before), and the lazy, drawling instrumental conveys the hopelessness of the situation very well, and is almost enough to de-motivate you from taking action yourself!
Note: I fixed you up with some of that good HD!
