Gentle tension between chords mirrors the sentiment of the song: the struggle for closeness and independence within a relationship.
“How can I be alone so well until I remember what it is like to be loved?
Then I lose all my independence / Why can’t I keep myself when I’m with her?
Sin of Certainty unearths a new way of looking at identity, the world around us, and our community. Gustafson-Zook says, “I say ‘Sin’ of certainty because I don’t think that being certain should be something to strive for. Instead, I think we should uplift uncertainty, which can lead to so much growth and possibility.” Through delightful musical twists and turns, Gustafson-Zook shows that embracing uncertainty can deliver rays of wonder in unexpected places.
