#745: Just cuz you’ve worked on yourself doesn’t mean you’re not f—d up

An upbeat, positive track about a relationship that has ended but with a positive twist. Featuring female vocals and a sense of empowerment and taking control back.

LYRICS:
From the time that you first kissed me
Till the time you spoke of love
I was yours, truly completely
But it seems like you’ve given up

Such a shame you don’t feel you need me
Such a shame now you say you don’t care
‘Cos I feel like you’ve really misled me
Such a shame, shame, shame

Was it one specific moment
Was it something that I did wrong
‘Cos I never saw this coming
I thought we both felt love strong

Such a shame you don’t feel you need me
Such a shame now you say you don’t care
‘Cos I feel like you’ve really misled me
Such a shame, shame, shame

When you said you saw the future
Had it ever included me
Or were those words said insincerely
‘Cos now you want to be free

Such a shame you don’t feel you need me
Such a shame now you say you don’t care
‘Cos I feel like you’ve really misled me
Such a shame, shame, shame

Such a shame you don’t see what you’re missing
Such a shame that one day you’ll realise
I am more than you ever could dream of
Such a shame, shame, shame

BPM: 120; Key B Minor

Such A Shame

A song about breaking free from a narcissistic relationship and taking back control. 

Thank You (For Nothing) (explict)

An upbeat, empowering break-up song about someone reaching the point where enough is enough and that any last minute effort to save the relationship, is simply Too Little Too Late. Featuring female vocals, this is a Country/Americana-Pop song. 

Lyrics:
What happened to the vows you made beside me
I thought you said you knew I was the one
‘Cos actions speak much louder than false promises
It feels like we’re the chorus of a breakup so
Ooooooo…..

What happened to I’ll put you first forever
I thought you said I’ll never feel alone
‘Cos for the longest time I can remember
Been sleeping next to someone I don’t know
Sad to say

Too little too late
Too little too late
Too little too late
Too little too late
It might seem harsh
And seal heartbreak
But to me it’s obvious
And my decision’s made
It’s too little too late

What happened to I’ll never hurt you baby
I thought you said through both the highs and lows
‘Cos these days, it seems that you’ve stopped caring
We’re heading for a future on our own
Sad to say

Too little too late
Too little too late
Too little too late
Too little too late
It might seem harsh
And seal heartbreak
But to me it’s obvious
And my decision’s made
It’s too little too late

Why’s it only now you’ve started trying
When I have both hands reaching for the door

Too little too late
Too little too late
Too little too late
Too little too late
It might seem harsh
And seal heartbreak
But to me it’s obvious
And my decision’s made
It might seem harsh
And seal heartbreak
But to me it’s obvious
And my decision’s made

Too little too late
Too little too late

Too Little Too Late

A lot of us live in our head, disconnected from our feelings and intuition. This podcast touches on releasing insecure attachment, accepting your authentic self and getting “unstuck” by connecting to how you FEEL instead of how you THINK. I’ve been there, and discuss sensitive subjects using my own experiences with a lot of laughs and even more empathy… because we’re all flawed humans.

Seek to see that which is not in sight.

Live in the now, be present, be real.

If you can see it, you can achieve it.

As we move through life, we will get cut on the sharp lies, on the truths of our reality.  Let the scars remind us that the past is real but be mindful as all scars are not seen.
