Ending a life is like ending a book, I’m sad but I’m satisfied, My only regret is I can’t read it again, And I didn’t take my time, You know it’s a good one, If you don’t wanna put it down My friends they gather, the pages and chapters, And put me together again, Now they’ve got my story to put on their shelves, And read from every now and then, You know it’s a good one, If you don’t wanna put it, I know and you know it hurts, There’s no words, But what we’ve learned, Is unconditional I always wondered where I’d end up, And who all would be at my side, Surround by love as I lie all alone, I’m sad but I’m satisfied, I know and you know it hurts, There’s no words, But what we’ve learned, Is unconditional, Ending a life is like ending a book, I’m sad but I’m satisfied

Couldn't Hurt 03:26
lyrics

Driving with my eyes close, Hoping fate will do what I’m afraid to do on my own, Safety took the back seat, I don’t give a damn if I crash and die alone, I’ve wondered what it’s like on the other side, On my way there I hope I do enjoy the ride, Wake up I’m losing, Everyday is a battle just get out of bed, Can’t say no reason, I think I felt this way forever can’t get out of my head, I’ve wondered what it’s like on the other side, On my way there I hope I do enjoy the ride, Couldn’t hurt as much as I do in this life, Couldn’t hurt as much as I do, Find a way, find a way, Let it hurt, don’t make me stay, I’ve wondered what it’s like on the other side, On my way there I hope I do enjoy the ride, Couldn’t hurt as much as I do in this life, Couldn’t hurt as much as I do, Driving with my eyes close, Hoping fate will do what I’m afraid to do on my own

Life Moves On 04:01
lyrics

Never thought that I could stop loving you, But I’m free at last, I went out and I met somebody new, And now you are my past, Life moved on, And so did I, It’s been a while, Since you made me cry, I never thought I’d stop, Loving you For a while just the thought of losing you, Made me wanna die, Now your gone and I’ve got something else to do, So I don’t really mind, Life moved on, So did I, It’s been a while, Since you made me cry, I never thought I’d stop, I never thought I’d stop, I never thought I’d stop, But I’m done, I’m never going back to what it was, Life moved on, And so did I, It’s been a while, Since you made me cry, I never thought I’d stop, I never thought I’d stop, I never thought I’d stop, Never thought that I could stop loving you, But I’m free at last

Why 03:32
lyrics
buy track
All I want for all my time are the ones that I hold dear, But I’m stuck inside losing my mind and they’re safer if I’m in here, All my friends are far away, one day they’ll be near, I just hope that we can cope when our faces show our years, Now I know what it’s like when the day turns to night, To sit alone screaming and crying, Why why why, Why why why, Is the only question that’s ever on my mind, I sure like the trees and stuff and I’d like to see them all, But then I’m reminded bout what’s outside and I start to feel real small Now I know what it’s like when the day turns to night, To sit alone screaming and crying, Why why why, Why why why, Is the only question that’s ever on my mind, Now I know what it’s like when the day turns to night, To sit alone screaming and crying, Why why why, Why why why, Why why why, Why why why, Is the only question that’s ever on my mind

No Matter What 03:20

You want to fit in, But losers don’t win, You’re acting weird, You’re showing fear, But I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, No matter what, It’s hard enough in your house, Living under a cloud, So afraid to go out, You feel lonely in a crowd, But I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, You grew up gotta job, You hate it, work sucks, No friends no love, No looking up, You’re still that kid you always were, Hiding in bed, you sore loser But I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you, Whoaaaaaaaa But I’ll love you, No matter what, I’ll love you

House and Garden 03:32
lyrics

By 25 I thought I’d quit getting high, Thought I’d be somewhere that made me feel alright, Where all the bricks are used build an open mind, And everybody helps you out from time to time, I’m looking for a sign, I just wanna house with a garden, And a front yard I can walk in, And some friends on my street, That help me when I need, Looking back at all the things that lead me here, I wonder if I should give it another year, By this time I told myself I should be fine, And if I’m not happy then I gotta change my life, I’m looking for a sign, I just wanna house with a garden, And a front yard I can walk in, And some friends on my street, That help me when I need, I just wanna end up on a chair off the coast of anywhere, And give up on my dreams cause by then I won’t care, Yeah it’s all good and fun, Being just like everyone, But the cities overrun, By people and their things I just wanna house with a garden, And a front yard I can walk in, And some friends on my street, That help me when I need

Come Around 03:54

I’ve been there before, I know just what’s it like, If you ever wanna talk, Then I’ll will make the time, The sun has a way of coming around, As dark as it may seem going down, But you just think it’s best,, Not say a word, Then I’ll sit with you my friend, Until you feel better, The sun has a way of coming around, As dark as it may seem going down

Falling 03:32
lyrics

I don’t wanna run it down, I just wanna play by ear, Making plans is such a joke, It’s funny cause we just don’t know, Looking back at where I’ve been, I wonder where I’ll fit in, Falling down, Catch me on the way out, look at all that I found When I’m falling down, I’m hoping for the very best, I love that it’s a mystery, If you think you know what it is, You’ll never know what it could be, Falling down, Catch me on the way out, look at all that I found When I’m falling down, And I love getting lost, Having nothing to do, Taking roads I don’t know, Just to see something new, When I’m falling down, Catch me on the way out, look at all that I found When I’m falling down, Catch me on the way out, look at all that I found

about

It’s time to talk about what happened.

It’s the experience that shaped me and that broke me. That taught me and still teaches me. And the foundation I build on.

Before I started this conversation I thought I was completely alone. Talking has proved me wrong. I’m amazed and grateful for all the support on this journey thus far. Healing ain’t easy. Thanks for listening.

When I was 3 years old my dad began showing symptoms of dementia. When I was 8 he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. He suffered from hallucinations and delusions when I was 9. He forgot my name when I was 12. He moved into a home when I turned 14. He forgot why when I was 15. He was in a wheelchair by the time I was 17. And died just before my 19th birthday. That’s the basic timeline. Fifteen very long years.

And that shit was terrible.

It’s at the front of my mind every single day. It's time to let it out.
