    The feels hit hard with this one. Love them so much. Thank you April for this wonderful piece. Thank you Alec for making this possible. I sit here tonight in my AFoV t-shirt raising a drink for my fellow punk brothers and sisters all going through hard times.

    Heres the tyrics uwu
    Dear mom, it's not a phase
    I've been dressing the same way every day since the 5th grade and I still listen to all of the same punk rock bands That I did back then
    Dear mom, I even started my own punk rock band
    We spend the summers travelling I think we're doing okay, we got 20 likes just yesterday on our Facebook page
    Dear dad, quit telling me to act my age
    To get a job and a house and a 401-k my band is doing great, we made 20 bucks, just yesterday on our Bandcamp Page
    On days when wake up like this, reliving every moment, of every wrong thing that I ever did
    I tell myself don't worry bout the little things cause little stuff is all it is and everythings impermanent
    Dear dad, I know that she looked just like me
    And I've always been so wild and free and fun
    That's why I am your favorite, even though I've always been a screw up
    Dear sister, I wish you didn't work so much
    I guess that's how you deal with stuff, we've both been through a lot, thanks for always being there for me every Time i screw up
    Dear world, I don't wanna die young
    I just wanna have fun I think that if all of us could stop arguing about politics and little things we'd solve all of our Problems
    So I will write a song to sing for all the art school dropout kids whose dreams were bigger than their pockets
    And it will go like this, don't worry bout the little things cause little stuff is all it is I promise, nobody is perfect
    Dear boyfriend, you asked me how I got so great and I told you that I stopped being afraid
    I wish you'd stop being so afraid
    Dear stranger, you asked if I could spare some change, you didn't look so great, you had death in your face, please Forgive me for looking the other way
    Dear father, just tell me that you're proud look at all the places that I've been look at all the people that I've helped
    If only mom could see me now
    Oh father, can you spare me twenty dollars? Living my dream is getting quite expensive
    Oh sister, don't worry bout the little things, try not to take your job and like so seriously, seriously
    Cause little stuff is all it is and nobody's a perfect kid
    So let's celebrate imperfectness and everything's impermanent
    So every good thing must come to an end
    Oh every good thing must come to an end
    Dear world, I've been thinking bout the end of times more than I would like to admit
    Dear mom, it's not a phase, things have been weird since the day you left
