The Fine Line of a Quiet Life is a documentation of mixed messages you give yourself and take from others about where you feel you should be in your life, and where you’re at. It’s about self reflection and understanding. It’s about detaching yourself from situations you’ve already been in and know the outcome of. Much like growing up, you learn not to do certain things and slowly but surely you learn that there’s a ‘fine line’ of what lifestyle becomes acceptable the older you get and also what you can hack as an adult (that maybe doesn’t feel too much like one). The feeling of regret and ‘how could I be so blind’ that everyone has felt in relationships that really only comes out once it’s done is something that also goes hand in hand with a mutual respect for a collapsed relationship, and that there’s no undoing of things you’ve done and it’s best to just move on and suck it up.

Lyrics
I would've thought by now I'd be overgrown
And at the station waiting, I should've known
Just how much life was inside of me
Cut down a branch of my family tree
You find it hard to see that the future's bright
'Cause you just sleep all day and stay up all night
Be safe, be brave, be whatever you like
Just don't involve me
'Cause I don't wanna do it again
I'm getting tired and old
I only wanted a friend
Someone to do as they're told
I started falling apart
As I was ready to go
Uh!
I see a glass half-full and you say you don't
I know you say you will, but I know you won't
Your teeth dug in and they won't let go
You try your best, but it just don't show
And when the road is closed and you're walking home
Could it be time to call it and just go home?
To your fine line of a quiet life
Acquired by knowing that
I don't wanna do it again
I'm getting tired and old
I only wanted a friend
I'll do whatever I'm told
I started falling apart
As I was ready to go
Uh!
When everything beside you
Comes crashing down, I'll find you
And while I sleep I see you
And what it's like to be you
Take care and don't be fearful
There's no undoing evil
It's all a bunch of lies anyway
So why bother? Why waste your time?
