about

Mental health issues have been in the news a lot recently and I have friends & family who have struggled also. During lockdown I felt it would have been even harder for people who are suffering so I had the idea for this song. The track 'Darkness' is about being there for someone and asking them to reach out to you, all money raised from sales will go to Solent Mind mental health charity.

lyrics

I can’t pretend to understand
Or know what you're going through, just know it’s not just you
I'm here to try and be a friend, yeah, I'm always here for you
Just know it’s not just you

When you feel like there’s no way out and the world is on your case
We’ll just keep walking slowly until we find our place

When the darkness takes a hold of you and there's nowhere left to go
Just reach out and take my hand
Well you won’t know if you don’t let me in
That I can help you find the light again, my friend

I know they say that words can't hurt
We both know that that's not true, just know it’s not just you
The words that they say are the ones that cut
The deepest through and through, but you know it’s not just you

You're the warrior who can rise, in the darkest times survive
Take it day by day, the pain won't last, we’ll face this side by side

When the darkness takes a hold of you and there's nowhere left to go
Just reach out and take my hand
Well you won’t know if you don’t let me in
that I can help you find the light again, my friend

I see that your sinking but please don’t let them win
You feel lonely lost and broken but together we'll begin
To show them you are stronger that you'll fight it all the way
You don’t need to make plans or promises I just need you to stay

When the darkness takes a hold of you and there's nowhere left to go
Just reach out and take my hand
Well you won’t know if you don’t let me in
that I can help you find the light again, my friend
that I can help you find the light again, my friend
