My third single of 2024 and the first ever original song I worte.
This song features the fantastic JJ Lovegrove on piano
A song about anxiety and depression, but from the perspective of someone who doesn't suffer, but knows someone who does and whats to help them/
I recorded this song and promoted it alongside a student at Confetti College in Nottingham to help with her project
lyrics
They say, that we don't really need to talk about it
They say, people have it worse, forget about it
But I know, that we're not to blame
If only they felt the same
We see, you smile and laugh, like there's no need to worry
We know, its another line, from one of your stories
We say, again and again
Just listen up and let me explain
That I'm coming home, Yes I'm coming home
Someone next to you, that'll always come through
I'm coming home, yes I'm coming home
Through the struggle and the strife, but at least she's in your life
I'm coming home, yes I'm coming home
They say, that maybe now we should really talk about it
They say, we're here to help, yes we're here to help you fight it
We know, that we're not to blame
If only she felt the same
That I'm coming home, Yes I'm coming home
Someone next to you, that'll always come through
I'm coming home, yes I'm coming home
Through the struggle and the strife, but at least she's in your life
I'm coming home, yes I'm coming home
I'm coming home, with you
