Brighter Days is an acoustic tune written during a tough time while sitting outside at night. I may have written this to cheer myself up. Recorded on a four track in 2002.
Feeling beat, and still so empty
I try to feel what I should be doin
There's nothing there, I just don't belong
Never been so down like this, I'm hurting
Motivation's gone, it ain't comin back
Gotta find the strength to stand and fight again
I live for the day, don't care if I never belong
Too much time spent just existing
What's it gonna take to get back my real self
I don't want to fight it, I keep resisting
What's there for me, If I just follow through
Never been so down like this, I'm hurting
Motivation's gone, it ain't comin back
Gotta find the strength to stand and fight again
Rise with the sun, bring back those brighter days
