Somethin' Shifted

The refrigerator shook.

Something else finally loosened.

Somethin’ Shifted is a playful, soulful rock song about coming home with the whole day in your shoulders—and discovering your feet have a few ideas of their own.

The keys land beside the speaker. A low note crosses the floorboards. A questionable dance move sends a refrigerator magnet to the floor.

“I attempted something graceful.

The refrigerator shook.”

Then the room grows quiet, and the song makes space for what the movement brought to the surface: someone missed, something regretted, a feeling that doesn’t need an immediate answer. When the rhythm returns, there’s room to stand up again.

“There’s a little more of me here

than there was before I played.”

Warm humor, a tender pause, and a joyful return to the floor. The dishes still need doing. The magnet goes back a little crooked. Somehow, that looks about right.

Somethin’ shifted.

I think I’ll let it be.
