We Are Tonight

My Worst Blunder, sung by female voice, written by Stan Countz, Wish there still was an "us"

My Worst Blunder

The song explores the theme of struggling with mental or emotional distress, exacerbated by medication, and the yearning for connection with someone who doesn't understand the experience. In one word: Isolation.

Lyrics by Brendan Bostock. Copyright 2025.

[verse]
in the early hours
i had a strange strange thought
it stuck with me for so long
i could not shake it off

[pre chorus]
maybe i was just too medicated
maybe i was just too medicated
I don't wanna be alone
I don't want to be alone

[chorus]
I try to feel you with me
I don't feel right
The feeling is a nightmare
Playing in my mind

I want to be around you
But you don't understand
Medicated nightmare
Take me back again

[verse]
In the scary hours
I'm talking to ghosts
The only comfort I have
When I need it most

[pre chorus]
maybe i was just too medicated
maybe i was just too medicated
I don't wanna be alone
I don't want to be alone

[chorus]
i try to feel you with me
I don't feel right
The feeling is a nightmare
Playing in my mind

I want to be around you
But you don't understand
Medicated nightmare
Take me back again

Medicated Nightmare

Life with no map can chap your hide
Leave you tapped and sapped inside
But if we’ll take the Savior’s hand
He’ll hear our prayers and save our land
He’ll come inside, abide and guide us
He’ll love, forgive, and live inside us
If we’ll turn our back on wrath and sin
We’ll have that map, that map within 

That Map Within

Song about a man who once was a popular popstar, but now is a forgotten ikon.
