about

This song was released ten years ago as a love song for someone I was dating at the time. Recently, I was asked to rerelease it for a different purpose. It has been rewritten, remixed, and remastered on commission from Foundation Joy, a New Hampshire nonprofit that finances long term rehab for addicts. The lyrics now reflect the love and appreciation that someone who struggles feels for the people who support them on their path, no matter what. It is still a love song, and I hope I have rewritten it in a way that can speak to everyone.

lyrics

I am quite often my own very worst enemy
I very rarely care what is expected of me
I want to fly and to die and be reborn again
I've paid the price for a promise I can't seem to keep
despite my angels, my demons they don't seem to sleep
My highs are high and my lows are as low as they come

but you you you
you see all the way through to my heart
you see my heart

I am amazed at the way that my world falls apart
and blown away by the graciousness of human hearts
are we inherently evil or were we born good
I know that life is a journey the world is a stage
and we hope that we'll figure it out by this age
but it's still feeling like nothing turns out as it should

but you you you
you see all the way through to my heart
you see my heart

Here is my confession
I don't know if I deserve your love
But whenever I question
You tell me I am worth your love

I am afraid of the things I am capable of
I have it in me to lie and to steal and to love
I have it in me to hope and to dream and to die

but you you you
you see all the way through to my heart
