about

While Emily, Eliza, Owen, and Kaylyn were brainstorming song topics like the color beige and the narwal, they got to talking about where each of them were emotionally and noticed what they all had in common. “We started talking about what is going on with us, and we were like ‘Changes!’ Some of us are going to high school, Owen was moving at the time, and Eliza was getting her bat-mitzvah.” So, focusing on change, the lyricists crafted a song rooted in the specifics of their own lives, but applicable to all. Kaylyn describes, “ Well, when we first made the song we finished the lyrics and everything, and it was personal to us but it wasn’t so personal that nobody would relate to it. They are all changes everybody has been through for such a long time. Everybody has moved, everybody has gone to high school, all Jewish people have a bat-mitzvah.” When they compared The Dick & Jane Project to other group work they all agreed that Dick & Jane’s creative and collaborative process was one of the better group experiences they had had. “This is the only group project I’ve ever liked.”

lyrics

Seein 'cross the too used steel
Seeing stuff that's so surreal
I don't really think I feel
The way I think I should

Unable to imagine the other side
Been down one road my entire life
People try to convince me
To go a certain way
On a certain path
On a certain day
I want to leave but also stay

After this old change,
will I stay the same?
After this old change

How'll I be able to separate
From the ones that I love and turn to a new fate
Will it all fit together these next few years
or crumble and bring me to tears

I'm crossin' the tracks
A new life lies ahead
But i don't know if I'm ready
To walk this path I tread

After this old change,
will I stay the same?
After this old change
