The Weeping Harp

Only one for you

Trying to remember the night before. It doesn’t look good.

Oh No

I Think I Met The Devil

YOUR MEMORY IS KILLING ME

[Verse 1]
I wake up when it's quiet, heart heavy as the dawn  
Haunted by the echoes of a love that's  been long gone  
Your laughter lingers softly in every corner of my mind  
A bittersweet reminder of the peace I just cannot find

[Pre-Chorus]  
In every whispered moment, in every tear that I let fall  
I feel the weight of memories echo down this hall  
Caught between the past and now
Where longing meets despair  
I'm searching for a way out, but your ghost is always there

[Chorus]  
Your memory is killing me
Like a shadow that won't fade  
Every silent hour, every breath
I'm trapped by the choices we made  
Though I try to move on
I can't escape 
What used to be  
Yeah girl, your memory is killing me

[Verse 2]
I walk through crowded streets, yet I'm never really free  
Every smile turns to sorrow, every face a memory  
In the quiet of my solitude, your presence fills the air  
A reminder of what was lost, a love I can’t repair

[Pre-Chorus]  
Between the ticking of the clock 
And the stillness of the night  
I’m caught in a timeless battle, between wrong and what was right  
No matter how far I wander
No matter where I roam  
Your memory is the anchor that keeps me far from home

[Chorus]  
Your memory is killing me
Like a shadow that won't fade  
Every silent hour, every breath
I'm trapped by the choices we made  
Though I try to move on
I can't escape 
What used to be  
Yeah girl, your memory is killing me

[Bridge]  
When the night grows silent 
And I’m left with my own fears  
I search for solace in the silence
Through the flood of unshed tears  
Wishing for a moment's peace 
To break this endless ache  
But every step I take
Your memory's there
Every promise it breaks

Your memory is killing me

[Chorus]  
Your memory is killing me
Like a shadow that won't fade  
Every silent hour, every breath
I'm trapped by the choices we made  
Though I try to move on
I can't escape 
What used to be  
Yeah girl, your memory is killing me

[Outro]  
Yeah, girl, your memory is killing me
Maybe slowly but
YOUR MEMORY IS KILLING ME

YOUR MEMORY IS KILLING ME

Fallen Echos

Still Here, Still Trying is a record about what it really feels like to carry the weight.
Leadership, fatherhood, marriage — showing up, holding it together, keeping your people safe.
The responsibility to stay strong, even when you feel anything but.

This album is about that quiet fight.
The pressure of being the one who’s supposed to keep moving forward, even on the days when the ground feels shaky beneath you.
It’s about doubt. About failing forward. About learning that strength doesn’t always look like confidence — sometimes it looks like exhaustion and still choosing to stay.

These songs live in the space between love and pressure. Between exhaustion and hope. Between being who you want to be and fearing you’ll never quite measure up.
They speak to the weight of holding a family together while trying to hold yourself together too.
But more than anything, they’re about staying.
Choosing home. Choosing love.
Choosing to keep trying.

The bonus track at the end — “I See You (Even When You Don’t)” — is from her side of the story.
It’s a reminder that the people who love us see through the armor, through the weight, through the bullshit.
They know how hard we’re trying.
They love us for it anyway.

Still here. Still fighting. Still trying.
