Pieces

No end in No end in No end in
sight No end in sight

No hunger No hunger No hunger
for this fight this fight

Might take this Might take this Might take this soul and take to flight

I'm staring at the void, grown out of this 
old game, cos this night has lost its flame
And chronic life is not my game

No end in sight 
No freedom from this wretched plight
Just searching for the faintest light
                          
Patience is the hardest thing I know when
resistance is futile
When I've got no strength to go and resistance is futile
Won't you throw me a bone


This song highlights the frustration and angst many of us experience at times when facing the reality of chronic illness. Sometimes we stare at the void and wonder at the meaning of life and if there's enough meaning to keep going. This isn't an easy topic and I hope the song leaves people a little uneasy. Sometimes it's easier to turn away from the very hard issues but sometimes just talking about these things is hugely helpful. 

The name of the song comes from a twitter hashtag that the chronic illness community use to share thoughts, questions and solidarity. We do search for the faintest light and we face these things together. 

The song wrestles with the matter of patience in the face of a lack of hope but ends with a slightly cynical plea to 'throw me a bone' as we call for greater levels of understanding, awareness and impetus in research. 


No End In Sight

Walk A Mile

This is a song about a young bride, Faith Summers, who was abandoned by her older husband after their wedding night. He went out for cigarettes and never returned.
She waited 3 days at the historic Hassayampa Inn, Prescott Arizona, in the Grand Balcony honeymoon suite, Room 426, and then in utter despair, hung herself from the hotel’s bell tower.
According to the legend, Faith’s spirit is often experienced by guests and staff since her suicide in 1927. Some local musicians would perform in the hotel on Sundays, and we experienced many unusual activities as a group, and I had an experience when I was alone in the rest room. 
I felt inspired to write a song about the story and perform it there, which only happened a few times because Sunday music soon ended. I felt inspired to write the story with the focus not on the well known, poor distraught young bride, but instead focused on the man who abandoned her, broke her heart and destroyed her dreams for a happy future. “Remember him, the Scoundrel Groom who vanished on their honeymoon.”

Here are the lyrics 
Far Cry by Treesha deFrance

It’s a far cry from the blue sky
Doesn’t satisfy only magnifies
It’s a far cry from where I wanna be
From where I wanna be
O set me free let freedom ring

O each day I wonder 
All I see all I hear all I know
O betrayed I wander
What I feel what I say where I go

Far, Far Cry 
Far, Far Cry

O feet on the ground
It’s a long way down
From underground
O give me a moment
I need a minute
To get back in it

Far, Far Cry
Far, Far Cry

Long time, hard try, scarred life
Scarred life

Far, Far Cry
Far, Far Cry

Far Cry

Fragile
