This Will Change It All

FKJ “Leave My Home”

“Leave My Home” has a very “I’m doing good, I guess” feeling to it. Smooth and relaxing, but with this subtle undertow of doubt and instability. The lyrics are specifically about adjusting to a new environment, but the feeling could be about any sort of adjustment period – it’s all in the way everything feels lovely but unsettled. This feeling really comes through in the guitar solo, which has a jazzy smoothness but also a slickness that feels like a put-on, like it’s all in quotations in a “fake it til you make it” sort of way.
