Setting Sun

I don’t know why it took me so long, but setting son is currently my favorite song off the new album and quite possibly the entire catalog (currently).

I think it took so long to become a favorite because I initially didn’t like the way this song started. I’d never given the lyrics an actual read through or concentrated listen.

For me, I think it hits hard mostly because of the way the United States election turned out. I lost a lot of faith in the intellect and moral standard for half of the electorate of the United States.

Is the sun truly setting on the USA? Is this more of a metaphor for my individual timeline? Time will tell, but I love this song.

If you read this, I hope you have an awesome day.
