The Boy Who Became a Bird

The Boy Who Became a Bird (I)

The Boy Who Became a Bird 1 (Lahtinen/Langenbach/Hoogeboom)

We all know too many stories of women having to leave abusive relationships, especially during the pandemic, and the shame and blame they are made to feel, the loss of hope, and loss of self. The damage in the moment seems unbearable and unconquerable as the emotions are so “raw” and painful… but it is possible to come out the other side stronger than before and feeling whole and hopeful.

Raw
By Maria Bourgeois

She ran away because she had to
Where they don’t know her name 
And the dangerous game she was forced to play
She ran away because she had to
To hide her shame
To avoid the blame
For the dangerous game
She was forced to play

And in the morning 
the light shines through the un-curtained window
on the bags of clothes
and the boxes in rows and the torn sleeping bag 
on the cold hard floor
(and) she’s reminded that she once had more
she’s reminded that she once had more
will she ever have more?
She feels like a library book that’s been left on the shelf
Never to be read again
It feels like the very end
Maybe she should have stayed

Cause it feels so raw
Unfiltered
Unaltered
Smashed my soul
Raw and un-whole
Smashed my soul
Smothered voice
And taken choice
And raw and bleeding
Always needing

Behind closed doors
They don’t really know what’s happened
Cause he presents so well
My dirty down man
With his dirty down plan 
Says I should take his hand
and he’ll lead me to the afterlife

So, I just ran 
and I’ll run forever if I have to
where they don’t know my name
and the dangerous game I was forced to play

an indie alternative rock tune about a girl called Violet and her struggles with mental illness and psychosis.
Sometimes life just plays games with your mind and you end up somewhere and dont really know how you got there. This is a song about what it feels like when that happens and the uncirtanty of life it self.

I have used both acoustic and electric guitars on this one and my new audient soundcard and I have to say that I'm very impressed with the final result!

The song was originally a singersongwriter piece, it still is only a few things happened in the studio which made it so much more interesting and this is the outcome of that #session 

hope you enjoy this track, much more music coming soon!!
