about

Written while working as a handyman after losing my job and closing my business that we co-owned, this song is about questioning one’s identity as it is linked to one’s profession and how to reconcile the two

lyrics

This isn’t really who I am
Don’t need to convince you
It’s fine if I’m the elephant in the room

You see me working with my hands
Don’t really work for you
If you you try you can see I am not what I do

It takes one to know one, I know
Can’t take what you save when you go
Give away all the love that you stole
And you’ll have nothing left to take home

It takes one to know one, I know
Can’t take what you save when you go
Give away all the love that you stole
And you’ll have nothing left to take home

But I don’t really give a damn
You’ll never fit my shoes
It’s alright girl I know
You’ve got so much to lose

So take my heart and take my hand
Both part of this old fool
Let me go let me fall
And crawl right back to you

It takes one to know one, I know
Can’t take what you save when you go
Give away all the love that you stole
And you’ll have nothing left to take home

It takes one to know one, I know
Can’t take what you save when you go
Give away all the love that you stole
And you’ll have nothing left to take home
