Recovery Song

Finally did it! Gave up SI... So my way of celebrating is writing a crappy lil song hehe. Taken a couple of days to design, and a spontaneous and slightly drunk choice of just going for the upload so here goes...

Hadn't learnt the words yet, so excuse the reading and looking down LOL... Wish me luck gonna record now! :D..

Haha that's hilarious... Guitar is crap but still gets the point across, most people can't understand my accent so will put lyrics here...

Haven't really titled it, and not that original with naming things, so just called it 'Recovery Song'

Behind the door, there's something that needs to leave
So rid my conscience, and pull up my sleeve
My heart was worn on the outside for some time
But Ive finally taken it back and made it mine
This is a song about my recovery
You can take my word for it, but it was easy
Wake up one morning and there I sit
Thinking to myself my memories, and decide to quit.
Still have the scars to remind me
That what I am now is not yet what I see
Still a long way to go, but Im almost there
Freed myself from insanity
Still got my tools hidden in my drawer
But I dont use them anymore
What Ive done is freed myself
Officially of stable mental health
I wont lie it haunts me still
Just a cut just an extra pill
To lift me from this downing mood
I could be free for awhile
I could be free for awhile
Just for a moment of bliss
But when good feelings gone
I return to this
Behind the door, there's something that needs to leave
So rid my conscience, and pull up my sleeve
My heart was worn on the outside for some time
But Ive finally taken it back and made it mine
This is a song about my recovery
You can take my word for it, but it was easy
Wake up one morning and there I sit
Thinking to myself my memories, and decide to quit.
The easiest thing to do is just stop
You dont need it and you already know that
The easiest thing to do is just stop
You can be yourself once again!

GOOD LUCK GIVING UP!
WELL WORTH IT!

I love your songs

But I disagree. Stopping is not easy.

Maybe it depends on the person and circumstances?

I think my favorite line in this is "Still got my tools hidden in my drawer,but i dont use them anymore" Because its so realateable how everyone has their own secrets theyre keeping,and the fact that at any time you could go back to it,but you dont want to. <3 Still love this song :)

81days today without cutting<3
