DAY 43 OF 354 - WHEN I TALK TO MY SHRINK

Описание: This is day 43 of writing 354 songs in 354 days—that’s a song a day for almost a year. Previously, I challenged myself to write 100 songs in 100 days, but I now I feel it’s time to up the ante.

The goal this time is to write at least two verses, and one chorus, record a video of me playing the song, and uploading it to YouTube, TikTok, and instagram.

This will accomplish three things:
1. Develop my songwriting skills
2. Build a bigger audience
3. Connect me with other musicians, songwriters, and artists

Today’s song is called “When I Talk To My Shrink”, and it’s about being in a relationship that you thought was God’s will for your life, but it causes so much pain and heartache that in the end it’s just another thing from your past that you talk to your therapist about.

Lyrics:

You came like savior
Just without the fanfare
The truth escaping your mirror
From what I averted my eyes

It seemed so clear
But I was stuck in the clouds
They laid our hands on us
And said it was God

But somewhere in there
I think we got lost

I’d marry you
Or so I used to think
But now all you are
Is a part of my testimony
Of how God brought me through
When I was dashed on the rocks
Reduced to trauma
When I talk to my shrink

I got swept away
In the magic and dreams
Starting setting my gaze
On calendars and rings

Rose colored glasses
Were glued to my face
Tunnel vision narrowed
As I blocked out the pain

Yeah I blinded myself
To the pain everyday
