You’re Allowed

Skirmish: Letter to your future sel... (@rinwolf)Lyrics
I always try To lead a life I know I won’t regret When I do I think of you I’ll free you from your debt
You don’t owe the past a single glance No sunk cost no victim of circumstance I don’t know who you are now But just remember, you’re allowed
You’re allowed to think weird things Pull on a sweater string You’re allowed to do a silly dance Leave the small stuff up to chance You’re allowed to take a stand Even if the ground is made of shifting sand Don’t let the bastards grind you down You’re allowed
Don’t forget The stuff I said I believe in you I worked so hard To heal this heart To make it fly true
And now it’s going farther all the time What’s mine is yours and yours was mine I don’t know who you are now But just remember, you’re allowed
You’re allowed to think weird things Pull on a sweater string You’re allowed to do a silly dance Leave the small stuff up to chance You’re allowed to take a stand Even if the ground is made of shifting sand Don’t let the bastards grind you down You’re allowed
Change it all If that’s your call 180 as you please Please just try From time to time To remember me
Look at where the road was long and wild Yeah, that’s always been your style If you don’t know where you are now Just remember, you’re allowed
You’re allowed to think weird things Pull on a sweater string You’re allowed to do a silly dance Leave the small stuff up to chance You’re allowed to take a stand Even if the ground is made of shifting sand Don’t let the bastards grind you down You’re allowed

Lovely vocals and guitars. And the reverb coming in as the song progresses is an effective production touch. Yes, let's pull on those strings and take stands even when the sands are shifting. Illegitimi non carborundum, indeed!

Don't let the bastards grind you down. Need to remember that daily. I love all of the permissions set to this catchy tune. And it's good to hear I'm allowed to be me, since I do so many of these things regularly, lol! ;)
