about

During my time away from my family, I wasn't handling the separation very well. Many of my emotions went into this song. Although I don't like how I felt when I wrote it, I love how it turned out.

lyrics

You left me here, everything ceases, picking up the broken pieces
Wallowing in my own sorrow, hoping that there's no tomorrow
Now you want back in, but I'm not open,
months were spent wishing and hoping
I needed you to ease the pain, now you can find that hope's in vain.

I was there, where were you?
Did everything you asked me to.
You say it's true, I know you lie.
You told me you wanted to try.
'Cause you don't have guts to say goodbye.

You crushed me here, my mind diseases, broke into a million pieces
You finally tell me you will stay.
But won't you please just go away!

I was ready, you weren't willing, you were laughing, you were chilling
I did all you asked me to, I was here but where were you?
You told me you wanted to try, you ain't got guts to say goodbye.
No you got no balls to say goodbye.

You told me you wanted to try.

Tatiana
by Tatiana Moroz

This woman can play some serious folk guitar and she has sultry singing skills. It's hard not to get drawn in. She also loves liberty as much as you do, if not more. Edmund Snyder

Web In The Corner
by Colette O'Connor

I've been following Colette on Soundcloud for some time. I fell in love with her style the first time I heard it. Sometimes her voice reminds me of Carole King, but without King's arrogance. Edmund Snyder

A brand new you

I discovered Dr. Mindflip through the Weeklybeats challenge that I'm doing (to write a song each week). His fantastic vocal range and amazing piano chops have drawn me back to his music every week. Edmund Snyder
