My best friend was the smartest person I knew, he could fix anything and everything, but himself. We lost him 2 years ago to addiction and I miss him everyday. Thank you for this song!
I know a lot of people relate this to addiction. But for someone who never really has struggled with addiction but has definitely struggled with anxiety and depression, this touches me in so many different ways. I feel the exact same way a lot. Why is this guy not big yet?
Any chance you feel like it's the world as we know it today? I've been told for years it's a me problem. But starting to see many I knew to be well in youth or their 20's now suffering like I always have. I think it's time for a big change. But we all hopeless an don't see that a possibility. Que mental health problems. I've always felt this to be true but was treated as crazy. By many of the same folks experiencing those feelings now.
this and "leave me alone" both hit me so hard when they came acrosss on my pandora playlists. It was like having my emotional blockwall crushed bc i isolated myself from people i was closest to for almost a yr after finalizing divorce for the first and hopefully onlytime anyway. musics always been the one thing that no matter how lost or deep i bury feelings it destroys them walls
This hit so damn hard for me.. I have gotten sober on my own 23 yrs ago and fell off the wagon a few yrs ago .. but I'm proud to say I was able to overcome again.. But 1.5 yrs ago being diagnosed with Bipolar II... this is how I felt and still go through those dark points. I hate my "broken brain" when the stress and pressures got to be too much I basically had a mind snap and now I'm stuck with this new version stuck in the original owners body.. everyday is a struggle and will be for the rest of my life but I keep pushing through. On a bright note, the past has led me to my present and I'm currently working on a bachelor's degree in psychology focusing on drug and alcohol addiction.. because helping others helps me too. God Bless and prayers to anyone struggling... remember: even if u don't feel worth anything, you're worth so much to someone else-- and instead of telling someone "if u need me, reach out"... just reach in and be there and show them you care
Dude…absolutely beautiful song brother. I am 6 years sober and remember feeling every word in this song before finding sobriety. This song is of great quality. Great work.
Your songs are so relatable and incredible. You are the definition of an artist. Heartfelt, raw, and authentic. You really can make the audience feel. Words cannot express how amazing all your songs are. ❤❤❤
Addiction lives in all of us for very similar reasons. Follows like a shadow. But there is a way out. Follow the light! ✨ Beautiful song man! I’ve had you on repeat and then you drop this beauty. 🙏🏽🙌🏽♥️✨👣
Sorry for me being so random... It's so crazie I wouldn't normally do this I'm not an internet guy but I keep seeing you on the comments of songs that I have searched and I just had a feeling I was supposed to say something, I'm sorry to bother you I know internet crazie . Godbless and it's nice to see a woman with good taste in music .take care .
I thank god for every minute, day, hour, week, year or as long as he see fit to allow me to be here as we all fall short of his glory. I'm currently battling stage 4 colon , liver and lymphnode cancer for going on a year through 12 rounds of chemo one month break to now going to be my 3rd round next time back so 14 dwn as many as god allows me to battle left. Always show love & never hate. Smile say kind words have empathy towards others its free and may very much save someone or make their day, You never know when someones hanging on by a thread. I pray everyday for forgiveness myself for I know I've failed at so much in life being a good son, brother, father, husband, friend, and most of all I failed god. I pray everyday that he'll forgive me but not even I think I deserve it. So I spend most days alone with my thoughts and wake up the next thankful for another day.
Absolutely needed to hear this song.. I've been so lost here lately this song describes everything in my life right now.. dealing with family members with addiction right now and it hurts like hell
Been there my friend,, 25 years of Recovered, from that life,, get real,hit ur knees, ask the 1 true GOD 'Jesus' into ur life and tie a knot on the end of that rope and hold on,,, for a ride out of this world,,, praying for U my friend. And GOD will get real with You!! Keep looking up;))
Sounds exactly like the soundtrack of my life. I was so focused on myself and my career, that I lost my marriage and my spiritual convictions. I spent years after that chasing a high. I got back in church, met my current wife and married into 4 amazing step-kids. The power of God’s grace and forgiveness set me free and I’m raising my new found family in the power and freedom of forgiveness and grace through Jesus who took up the punishment for MY wrongs and laid all down for my sake. Life is hard, no doubt. But there’s power and freedom in redemption in Jesus’ name. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord 🙌🏻
Ouch! Was not expecting that one! Im in recovery and man once that chorus hit, my heart sank and I busted into tears. Damn this song pulled the words right out of my mouth! Love it though! Recovery is possible! 🤜🤛
The only things in life that keep me from saying my goodbyes are my children. I've been down that road before and shouldn't be here today. Stay strong, my friends.
Your voice is the very best. I love how much heart is in your music, it's so honest and raw and real and what so many go through. You're a beautiful soul whatever happens remember that
Lyrics There's some drugs on the counter I've been drinking all night I ain't doing this for fun It's the only thing that helps with getting by Most of the time I wish I was someone else Maybe then I could save me from myself Devil's on my shoulder, dark thoughts fill my mind Don't bother tryna help, you'll waste your time 'Cause I'm broken Like a record on repeat, digging my own grave Driving Swerving on two lanes, dying from this pain It feels like there's no way out Happiness is gone somehow And I'm still a kid, wasting years I guess I'm just hopeless When people ask if I'm okay I just smile through the pain Laying up at night, staring at these walls Sometimes I wish I felt nothing at all 'Cause I'm broken Like a record on repeat, digging my own grave Driving Swerving on two lanes, dying from this pain It feels like there's no way out Happiness is gone somehow And I'm still a kid, wasting years I guess I'm just hopeless I'm just hopeless There ain't no going back To the kid I used to be Looks like I'll just suffer being me 'Cause I'm broken Like a record on repeat, digging my own grave Driving Swerving on two lanes, dying from this pain It feels like there's no way out Happiness is gone somehow And I'm still a kid, wasting years I guess I'm just hopeless I'm just hopeless
this song hits me deeply because ive felt every lyric in this song and made me shed a tear when i first heard this song because i feel this song deeply in my heart
17 year old here, bout to turn 18. Things are tough and I'm trying to make it all work, but I feel like everything is coming at me and I can't even get ahold of what's going on inside my head. All I can say is hold on and keep your best friends close. If I hadn't I wouldn't be here. There's gotta be a way out eventually
Bo, it gets better. I'm 31. You are only 14. Your brain is working through everything. Look to your friends and always look up to your parents, and always be honest.
34 year old female here and I will tell u that it gets easier. Some days r still hard but I promise if u stick it out, u won't regret it. There r so many times I've wanted to give up and I'm so glad I haven't. Being a teenager is uniquely hard and u will come thru it.
It gets worse, your later teens and all your 20s will probably suck man but like.. You kinda just get used to after so long. Eventually you find peace within the smaller things life offers.
Love his voice & i can relate to these songs, because of having depression & all the loss & hurt I've experienced in my life. Keep up your beautiful songs 👏👏
Take care of yourself Logan . Seriously I mean that when I say that . I understand music is a form of therapy to get out your feelings but don’t get trapped there forever ❤️🩹 You gotta feel to heal 💯 Thank you for the music you dump your heart and soul into we all appreciate it and unfortunately many of us relate to your feelings . But know that there’s hope even when it seems like it is hopeless 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
this here is real country hes got the old school guitar and the real words from back in 2000 like i hope this kid goes far hes got the voice hes got it but some is that he is speaking from the heart and wtv has happened to this kid i hope he gets thru it good music is made from ppl with broken hearts cause they just let it out they poor there soul into there music and they poor the feelings
WOW, WOW, WOW… I wish EVERYONE, especially the those who somehow haven’t been touched by addiction in some way, would LISTEN TO THIS ABSOLUTELY TOUCHING song!!!!!!!! Many thanks for sharing 🙏🥰
this song and leave me alone man have been two songs I've related to so well your one my fav artists out there absolutely love your songs keep up these freaking amazing songs dude
No one gets out of this life unscathed and I have been in such dark and painful places in this life. I've attempted to stop the pain on my own but the absolute truth is that I would have been killing the wrong person because I wasn't who I was going to be in 6 months or a year. Don't close the book on your story right before it gets great and it will, all we have to do is have faith in that person who has been with you every second since you were conceived...you. I promise that you will see that perfection.
The best thing you can do to fix this pain is find someone worth fixing it for. I know people say you have to want it for yourself but when you have a truly loved one that means everything, someone worth laying your life down for without a heartbeat things truly change, my wife and baby girl are that reason. Do I still drink, yeah sure, but I am not self destructive anymore. Find that someone
