starting line

wow, that's awesome. my little girl's a bit over one, and i still get teary-eyed thinking about her first day in kindy. why did we sign up for this? all jokes aside though, i've had my fair share of those moments, but the one that stood out to me was leaving home to go pursue music. i was a bit sad about it as a teenager, but now i know it needed to be done. did you have to go through anything like that?

aw mate thank you, it means a lot. you'd think i'd have some big party turning the thirty and all, but i really just did something small with my family. would that make me the odd one out?

i was actually a great liar as a kid, but now? not so much. be honest— do you see the resemblance between us at all? you know what, i'll take it. but hypothetically speaking, would you actually consider adopting an almost thirty year old australian man? you can tell the truth, it won't hurt my feelings. ... okay maybe only a little bit.

i'm actually shocked that we haven't had a collab. you and michael are practically joined at the hip; what's the hold up? a waterparks/5sos song would, as the kids say, eat down. ... wow. as someone who's only ever either bleached their hair or dyed it black, i admire your adventurous nature. did you have a favourite hair color, or something so memorable that you're thinking about bringing it back? i do like it when you put it like that though. wish i could say the same, but i wear is the same leather jacket and neckties now.

men these days, am i right? i dunno ash, i think you'd make a pretty great couples therapist. have you ever thought about it as a side hustle? i mean, you were the one who helped me through the stuff last year and i came out alright. i've only got the girl dad thing going for me, so maybe that's why the fans trust me a bit more. ... michael whispering to his torso is definitely something. i reckon we bombard him in his sleep and find the truth once and for all.

it was either that or party in the usa, but if i was in a karaoke sesh with the rest of the band i already know i'd never hear the end of it. do you have any guilty pleasure songs like that? i'm glad that i was able to put things in a new perspective for you though. oh gosh billie, i feel like i can't screw this up. let's say you're going out with your best mates, what kind of vibes are you putting out there?
