The songs come from a life that broke open. Over three years, Welch wrote more than 40 songs while deconstructing their Christian faith, leaving the church, starting a business, coming out as queer and getting divorced. Then came the rebuilding: raising kids, finding footing, learning self-love for the first time, finding a new partner and welcoming two more kids into a growing blended family.
"Stranger Behavior" opens that story. It's the reckoning of a new life: the first cracks in the frame, what slipped through as the facade faded, and what was being outgrown as the old skin came off.
"There's a kind of happy giving up in this song. Not the 'nothing means anything, I quit' kind. It's realizing there's far more going on than I could ever comprehend, and the best thing I can do is accept who I am, where I am, and love myself for exactly that." — CJ Welch, paperlion
