Sometimes we need a shoulder to lean on and the chance to pour out our hearts.
Yes the drums are fake, and yes, I know they're cheesy.
For Now
I think it's my turn to speak now
It feels like it should be so
You've had my shoulder for so long
Pouring out your hurts and woes
The tear stains are simple
The cuts so plain to see
You let me through your callous wall
And witness the tender heart beneath
Midnight came creeping slyly down the way
You're only comfortable in the things that never change
Darkness keeps crawling into your room
The only comfort you find in your empty tomb
For now, only for now
Keep on releasing
For now, only for now
Until you've drained every drop of pain
For now, only for now
Keep on releasing
For now, only for now
Keep on releasing
Fearsome words, the brutalist weapon
Cut down every ounce of self-esteem
When rubble and ruins are all that's left standing
I want you to know it's not too much, too much to mend
For now, only for now
Keep on releasing
For now, only for now
Until you've drained every drop of pain
For now, only for now
Keep on releasing
For now, only for now
Keep on releasing

I love your voice... it's really amazing. And you listen to your inner critic, you should be listening to the voice I'm hearing right now!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you again. I'm glad you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI've never really liked my voice. It doesn't help that I've been a long-time smoker. Although I have already made a commitment to myself to quit this weekend...for real this time. It hinders my control and I don't have the range I would like to have.
I wrote this song earlier this year for some friends of mine that were going through marital troubles. They weren't talking to each other, but they both would talk to me. Both of them had extremely emotional "let it all out" sessions with me. It was really cool that the week I played this song to them (individually) they started talking to each other again. They still struggle in their relationship but they are doing soooooo much better. I don't know if I really had any hand in it. I would like to think I helped a little.
