Backstory:
Adolescent Measure comprises four ex-high school friends from the small town of Northbridge, Massachusetts. They all shared a common interest in music and started by playing in local talent shows, back in the school days. Their shared passion for music and a dream to leave a mark in the world, made them realize that they needed to take this journey together. They named their band ‘Adolescent Measure’, a nod towards their youth, symbolizing their journey of growth, exploration and constant measurement of their goals, dreams and abilities.

Full song lyrics:
Verse 1:
[Em] Driving down the [G] same old roads, [D] wondering where the [A] time just goes,
[Em] Lost in the [G] memories, [D] trying to find [A] our destinies.
Chorus:
[Em] We’re just counting [G] stars on a canvas [D] sky,
[Em] Trying to catch our [G] dreams as they [D] pass us by.
[Em] We are but a measure, [G] an adolescent [D] measure,
[Em] Living life and [G] learning, in [D] each moment we [A] treasure.
Verse 2:
[Em] The world is our [G] oyster, [D] our canvas, our [A] stage,
[Em] Growing up together, [G] turning every [D] page.
[Em] We’re just kids on a [G] journey, [D] searching for the [A] clues,
[Em] Trying to find the [G] answers, [D] paying our [A] dues.
Chorus:
[Em] We’re just counting [G] stars on a canvas [D] sky,
[Em] Trying to catch our [G] dreams as they [D] pass us by.
[Em] We are but a measure, [G] an adolescent [D] measure,
[Em] Living life and [G] learning, in [D] each moment we [A] treasure.

Testimonial:
Adolescent Measure has been my favorite band since the day I heard their first song. The way their music resonates with the trials, joys, and uncertainty of the adolescent age is something unmatched. Their lyrics have given me comfort and strength through my own journey. They inspire me to chase my dreams, like each star on a canvas sky. Their music is more than just a melody to me, it is my compass in this vast world.
