This is the first ever song that I wrote. Since quarantine, I've wanted to start writing music. I picked up the guitar a couple months ago and started learning, and then I ended up writing this song. Sorry that the quality isn't perfect, I had to record straight into the microphone. Future songs will be directly plugged in! 

I wrote this song to convey my life's story so far; to describe the feelings that I have on the daily. But this isn't just my story; I'm sure there are millions of people that feel this way and are also going through tough times. I hope my emotions reach you, and I hope you enjoy listening to it.

Lyrics:
Intro:
Six feet under with no way out
I lost myself in all my doubt
I tell my friends, “Please kill me now.”
Just make it end for crying out loud

Verse 1:
Alone in the darkness, feeling lost at sea
Drowning in waves of my anxiety
Head in the clouds and I’m not coming down
Reality’s obsolete
Death on my mind, with no where to hide
As my demons creep behind.
Medications work wonders as they pull me under; 
Something to ease the pain

Bridge:
Where do you go when you’re all alone?
Nobody to guide you home.
All of this pain, it never ends
Always wishing I could be someone else
These scars still remain, and I can’t refrain
From having bad thoughts run through my brain
Wishing, hoping, today’s the day… I’ll be

Outro:
Six feet under with no way out
I lost myself in all my doubt
I tell my friends, “Please kill me now.”
Just make it end for crying out loud

Hey all,

I'm too excited about this song to not release a demo to SoundCloud before the Spotify drop. This song is the last one on my EP. Not many edits made to this yet, but will be working on mastering and making final touches after my Single release to Spotify!

This song is about going through a breakup and the process of healing. I originally wanted to write about relationships where the couples fight through thick and thin, and always come out on top because they get through it together... No matter how bad things get, or how bad fights are, they'll always figure it out if they talk through it together. At some point in a relationship, depending on how much time you spend with your SO, you might feel like you can't live without them; you've become so accustomed to being with them and having them around... You may feel that you've become so attached, that you'd rather die than live on if they were to leave you.

As I kept writing though, I realized that would be a bit hard for me to write about because I didn't have that experience... My first and only relationship so far fell apart pretty quickly after our first big fight; unlucky really. So I decided to switch the story to going from "without you, I'd rather die" to eventually "without you, I'm alive and well," focusing more on the healing process and what comes after the breakup.

I hope you'll be able to understand the story I'm telling through the lyrics!

CAN'T WAIT TO RELEASE MY EP! soonTM :)

Lyrics: Intro:

- The fire is burning out, but I can’t lose you again.

Verse 1:

- Feel like the room is spinning around.
- Hit by the words that came outta your mouth.
- We didn’t come this far for nothing, let’s try to figure it out.
- We’ll make it through, just one step at time.
- Let’s save ourselves disaster, or we can leave this all behind.

Chorus:

- Without you, I would rather die.
- Without you, give me a reason why…
- Am I not worth fighting for?
- You say you can’t take any more.

Verse 2:

- Feels like my world came crashing down.
- It’s so weird to not see you around.
- And now I feel empty…
- But I know I’ll get it figured out.
- And I’ll make it through, just one step at a time.
- I’ll save myself from falling,
- I don’t want to be left behind.

Chorus 2:

- Without you, I feel so alive.
- Without you, I’ve found my reasons why.
- Take the time to heal and let go,
- and in the end, life will unfurl. 


PS.. I think this is the best song on the EP.
