New Original Track – You Are Not Alone

New original track You Are Not Alone almost didn’t exist. A few days ago, I debated whether to abandon the track or to continue and publish. I decided to press forward, mostly to overcome a lot of production issues, coupled with a chorus I’m still not totally happy with. But, moving forward, I learned a lot. Especially about overloading the bass and kick, which is now remedied. Perhaps too much, but at least it won’t sound like the police are knocking on your subwoofers with a doorbuster.

New original track You Are Not Alone is pretty straightforward. It’s the first song I’ve been able to clock in at exactly three minutes. I’ve been working on making songs concise and this is a good example of the direction I’m trying to go. I would still like to slow things down a bit, and keep it short, but we’ll get there. This new original track is dedicated to anyone having a hard time and how easy it is to isolate, which is exactly what you don’t want to do. Trust me, I get it, when we’re in pain, the idea of reaching out for help seems impossible. But it is out there, and there are people who understand. Talking to somebody can make a huge difference, it’s just tough to take that first step. But if you do, it can be a game changer.

New Original Track- You Are Not Alone – Lyrics

You Are Not Alone

on the surface now you seem like you are fine

but your demons are hiding in plain sight

hurt and pain are masked by your smiling eyes  

putting on a front like this is life

all by yourself the night is sometimes hard to bear

the voices start to get so loud, they’re only things you hear

you don’t have to do this alone

it’s not something to do on your own

circling around you like hungry wolves at night

all your thoughts of hope have gone dark inside

by yourself the night is sometimes hard to bear

the screaming’s become so damn  loud, and you think that no one cares

you don’t have to do this alone

it’s not something to do on your own

reach out for a hand you might not see right now

but it’s how you’ll pull through the dark, this crushing mess somehow

reach out for a hand you might just see right through

but it’s how you’ll ignore the dark, find someone here for you

you don’t have to do this alone

it’s not something to do on your own
