You’re Wondering Now

This is a very personal song. At first it sounds like a novelty song; it’s catchy, simple and has a nice hook. You’ll sing this song a few times or a few years and then in a quiet moment YOU will figure out what it’s about. It’s catchy enough you’ll find yourself singing it by yourself, but trust me, it is far more satisfying singing it with your best friends in a raucous group confession. I promise with your own personal backstory this is a very powerful song.

In a group the magic is that they won’t know what you’re singing about, and you won’t know what they’re singing about, but the act of almost confessing in a song is sublime. Like I said, it’s a personal song that’s best shared, so belt it out in your own guilt and dubious belief in redemption.

Lyrics from Andy & Joey
You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end You're wondering how, you should pay, for the way you did behave Curtain has fallen, now you're on your own I won't return again, forever you must wait You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end [break] Curtain has fallen, now you're on your own I won't return again, forever you will wait You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end You're wondering how, you should pay, for the way you did behave
