So I am currently working on a new song and I tell you what... It bangs.
The past 12 months has seen some MASSIVE changes in my life and I have spent a lot of time working on my own mental health. I saw a memory from 12 months ago saying that I thought my anxiety had been upgraded to depression. I can honestly say now that I now know how to control the anxiety and am no longer "Depressed".
The lyrics to this song are about realising that maybe more than half of my life is already over. We never know how much longer we have left. This is about my growth and acceptance.
At this stage, the song won't be out for about 4-8 weeks but I will update once it is available.
I used to think I was invincible,
Nothing could take away my smile.
Every now and then these thoughts come round,
this growing emptiness inside.
Never knowing how long we've got left,
Each day one closer to your last.
I used to think I was afraid of death,
I used to think I was afraid of...
Missing out on all these days
and I wont be around always.
When I say it to myself
I think of all the dreams
I've thrown away.
In a different life
I used to grab a bottle
drink it all away.
Now I've opened up my eyes
to see a different fate
in front of me.
I haven't lived a life where I've felt proud,
I've wasted way too many years.
Spent it living somewhere in the clouds,
while always skipping round my fears.
As the numbers grow behind me,
I think of all the things I've done.
I used to think I was afraid of death,
I used to think i was afraid of...
Missing out on all these days
and I wont be around always,
Missing out on our goodbyes,
and watching you live out your lives.
When I say it to myself
I think of all the dreams
I've thrown away.
In a different life
I used to grab a bottle
drink it all away.
Now I've opened up my eyes
to see a different fate
in front of me.
