If This Is Music

For all the wonderful artists on SoundCloud. 

I woke up this morning with a song in my head. Which isn't unusual, but this time it was a happy song instead of a depressing one. I've been on SoundCloud for a couple of months now, slowly sharing my music and discovering all kinds of music that you have created. 
I'm really enjoying listening to your music, it's so creative and I love the passion you have for music. I also love connecting with you, it's fulfilling to experience that there are many more people that love music the way I do.
What I really found astonishing are your kind, supportive reactions to my music so far, especially on my track Terrified. I can't believe someone would want to listen to my songs, let alone leave such wonderful comments and showing such support. I am very grateful for that.

So thank you, people on SoundCloud! I hope you don't find this ridiculous. I'm just so glad that I was finally able to create a song that wasn't coming from a dark place, but from a place of gratitude and appreciation. Happy holidays and I look forward to hearing more from you!

Lyrics

Thank you for doing what you do
The way you're writing all your music
And your singing too

The way you're playing drums, guitar and bass
I truly am amazed
I wish I were half as good as you

But most of all I love your kindness
And your authenticity
How you cheer each other on
What a nice place to be

I didn't know the world could be accepting
Of each other like you are
I'm not lying when I'm saying
It really warms my heart

So, thank you for doing what you do
The way you're writing all your music
And your singing too

The way you're sharing creativity
It's a new world to me
I'm grateful how I'm welcomed here by you

So, thank you
Thank you

Thank You SC

The crisis is inside us
And all around
Everyone's got a friend on drugs
In this fucking town
Tell me where's that future
That they keep talking about
My life just ricochets, yeah
It still ain't hit the ground

I just want to know
If it's going to change
The faces at the bus stop
Just waiting on the rain
And music's just like makeup
Painted on the day
I know it don't mean nothing
But I just want to say

The crisis is inside us
And all around
Went to school and spent all that money
But I might as well have dropped out
By twenty-five I thought I'd have
Figured it out
But the truth just ricochets, yeah
It still ain't hit the ground

The cops rolled by
And I wrote my name
In the cold blue light
That the sirens sprayed
On the ground

Who we'll be
And where we'll stay
No one knows
But we're on our way

The crisis is inside us
And all around
The sky opens up every night
And the rain keeps falling out
All I hear is doomsday
But it won't take us down
We might ricochet, but
We still ain't hit the ground
