lyrics

Fear the friend I chose because
it could always be counted on
to take me to a familiar place
an embrace where I understood the stakes.

But you talk of love and what do I do with that
-found the pieces of my heart attached
to words I don’t understand -
must drop my shame to gain what I lack.

Step by step, you guide, I move
I’ll be your fool if you want me to -
say my name if it suits you
either way I’ll be holding on, pushing through.

The cliché of an artist lost
too much feelings and damn the cost
recognize that I’ve chosen sadness
recognize that I’ve chosen madness
can’t get out of my own way
my own happiness I will betray
the darkness comforts all I know
fear the friend I choose to hold.

Que the lonely credits
I’ll walk my path, I’ll grin and bear it -
my shame keeps its hands outstretched
misery loves company til death.

Blues-Folk-Poetry-Soul to bridge the heart and mind - a little bit of emotional instability to open up the possibilities - old school for the old souls, and we are all old souls after all - just in want of a little humanity.
