[Verse 1]
I used to think that maybe it was better not to bother
To worry 'bout the things that made me scared about the future
But looking back I didn't want to stumble on a question
That might upset the structure of the world in which we lived and
I might delay the outcome when I thought something should happen
I might disrupt my own life if it kept a thing in motion
I never had the chance to tell you what I really felt
But I figured we'd be okay when the dust had settled
[Chorus]
Was it just changephobia
That madе you scared
Of the future in front of ya?
Is it just changеphobia
That makes us scared
Of doing what we should?
[Verse 2]
Talking to myself, I feel much better
Than I ever used to before
Didn't wanna know what I was thinking
Didn't think that I should know
Used to be afraid of what I felt
And what was coming up ahead
Then I learned I wasn't so strange
Nothing I should hide from myself
[Chorus]
Was it just changephobia
Were you scared
Of the future in front of ya?
Is it just changephobia
That makes us scared
Of doing what we should?
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Was it just changephobia
Were you scared
Of the future in front of ya?
Is it just changephobia
That makes us scared
Of doing what we should?
Was it just changephobia
That made you scared
Of the future in front of ya?
Is it just changephobia
That makes us scared
Of doing what we should?

“Changephobia” was one of the last songs I finished writing for this album. The chorus came to me sitting at the piano in my living room; I spent weeks picking up and putting down ideas for the verses. One day I sat down with an acoustic guitar, feeling close to giving up on the song altogether: all...
A few years ago I was sitting at a park bench in Massachusetts and someone told me change is good, and it just stuck with me. No one had ever said to me that change is good. This idea informed the whole album. I’ve also had a fascination with sax that dates back maybe a decade. I knew where I wanted...
