Embedded Files
Hi all, I hope you have had a good week?
This week's theme is less positive than my previous entry. I had hoped to share something in line with starting back at work and new beginnings but to be honest, I have not been in a great place mentally. So, I have decided to share the lyrics to a song that I wrote when I was reflecting on how these periods of being down made me feel. I distinctly remember writing it in around 30 minutes and when I read it back to myself, I saw it wasn't perfect or that well constructed but decided to keep it as it was; raw and unedited.
I have yet to upload it to Spotify as the song itself doesn't yet feel like its exactly how I want it to sound, however it is on my Drooble page (a social network platform for musicians to get feedback on tracks they have written) and I will post a link for you to listen.
Have a read/listen and comment below with your thoughts.

Smile
The light through my window
The light through the window
makes everything look bright
It cannot penetrate
the sadness that fills me inside
Why can’t anyone see
the pain behind my smile?
I carry on.
Pretending everything’s ok.
I feel I am always running away,
trying to leave it all behind
But I am too slow.
It catches my heart and darkens my mind.
Why can’t anyone see
the pain behind my smile?
I carry on.
Pretending everything’s ok.
I feel the sadness enter my soul.
I can’t escape, I cannot hide.
How can I fight it alone and in fear?
I let the darkness inside.
Why can’t anyone see
the pain behind my smile?
I carry on.
Pretending everything’s ok.
Pretending everything’s ok.
Pretending everything’s ok.
