about

We all had a hell of a year. From losing friends and family to other struggles in our lives, it was pretty easy to get down about stuff. It also wasn’t uncommon to be out having a good time when that heavy feeling would hit us like a ton of bricks. WEEP is about how your past can affect your present. Its about trying to put your life together after tragedy. It’s easy to live in regret and dwell on negative experiences but at some point you have to decide to pull yourself up and change your perspective because at the end of the day, sometimes that’s all that you have control over.

lyrics

WEEP
I am the ghost
Haunts of the past
Confined to thoughts
Of lost happiness
I have been dragged deeper Into the void
Will this end
This grief inside for what I once held
Time must change
Reaching for more from the bottom I dwell
All I hope That this emptiness will soon pass
Happiness
A feeling of purpose I pray I can grasp
Reborn
Revive
I fight for
A new life
All I wanted
Was to know of a purpose to feel like I belong
But knowing there was no support from you for so long
You linger
In the empty space inside my mind
All I want
Fight to distort what's engraved in my eyes
Solitude
A constant companion all too familiar I reach out
Being dragged deeper into the void
I struggle
Every time I feel like I'm making progress
There's always a constant reminder
That dims the light
That shuts a door
That puts more weight on these shoulders
I'm left crawling through life
Hoping to reach a place of contentment
But I’m lost
