about

One of my most recent tracks, Tears on the Floor is about the thoughts and the feelings that I've had when at my lowest.
At it's core it's a song about mental health, surviving the struggles and coming to terms with it.

It's something that always will need combatting, but we can always get through it.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Standing by the Door,
Hand on handle.
When did the candle burn out?

It wasn't like this before.
End of my tether,
I've weathered too many storms.

Feeling nothing at all.
Save for the moments,
Of peering out this black hole.

Hole.

Chorus:
I will sever the ties,
Gonna cut 'em out, gonna cut you out.
Tears on the floor,
Remind me that it's okay to not be okay.

Verse 2:
It's happening again.
Waves of emotion,
Poseidons great ocean won't clean.

I don't have any friends.
No one to lean on,
When I need to be strong.

Strong.

Chorus:
I will sever the ties,
Gonna cut 'em out, gonna cut you out.
Tears on the floor,
Remind me that it's okay to not be okay.

Solo:

Chorus:
I will sever the ties,
Gonna cut 'em out, gonna cut you out.
Tears on the floor,
Remind me that it's okay to not be okay.

Tears on the floor,
Remind me that it's okay to not be okay.

Tears on the floor,
Remind me that it's okay to not be okay.

Tears on the floor,
Remind me that it's okay to not be okay.
