Think I know where you belong, think I know it’s with me

I look in people’s windows in case you’re at their table

Trip of my life, oh!

It’s hell on earth to be heavenly. Them’s the breaks. They don’t come gently.

And may it continue, evermore.

THE ERAS TOUR (March 17, 2023 — December 8, 2024)

We would go on to play this show in the pouring rain, in the blazing heat, in the thickest humidity, in the wildest winds, and in the bitter cold. We would do it if we were sick or exhausted or injured. We would do it with a broken heart. We do this because we love having the rare opportunity to create happiness and wonder up on that stage. We do it because we know it takes time and effort and money and energy to plan out coming to a concert. We do it because every friendship bracelet traded has the potential to become a new friend, and you never know what dreams can be sparked if we succeed in painting a dreamscape in every city we visit. We do it because people need an escape from how brutal life can be, and it is the honor of a lifetime to be that for them, if only for a night. And although we are all on our own in this big scary life, somehow it doesn’t feel that way when we’re singing the same words as 80,000 other people wearing glittery face paint. We do it because life comes in waves, in phases, in brilliant flurries of magical moments, and all of these things come together to create… Eras.

You and I, we’re about to go on a little adventure together, and that adventure is gonna span seventeen years of music, and it’s gonna be one era at a time. How does that sound to you?

I could show you incredible things…

You said if we had been closer in age, maybe it would’ve been fine and that made me want to die
