This lyric is about an old girlfriend that I just can't stop thinking about and it's really affecting my life. No matter where I am or what I'm doing my mind always drifts back to her. It just feels like I'm haunted, and my thoughts will never break free from the destruction that I felt in this relationship. I resort back to drinking to try to get over it, and that never works. The fact is is that you just have to accept reality and move forward. It's human nature, to think about an old flame, it's just not good to obsess over it. The best way to not have to obsess over something is to replace it with something else that'll take your mind off it. I'm not saying I want to go out and find another girlfriend it's just find another activity that will help me get through it other than drinking. Cuz drinking never works.
This is a lyric about a relationship where I know it's over and she's not fooling me at all. I confront her and ask her to tell me the truth about what's really going on even though I know in my heart what it is. I know that sometimes love is so hard to let go of just like the person is. It's really hard to say goodbye. But at times you know love is blind as they say, and to walk away is the last thing you want to do love is full of pain, love is like the blues hence the name of the song
This lyric is about when I was using drugs, mostly crack cocaine. I remember there was a time when I was in my living room drinking a beer and smoking crack and I thought to myself I've been up for 6 days what a run this has been. I'll tell you I felt like I was just killing myself, and what a fucked up way of doing it. It was slow and painful. By this time in my using career, it was no fun to be had the only thing that I had was I had to do it. Mentally I just couldn't stop the thoughts from racing in my head, to use drugs, and numb everything out. It's a really messed up feeling, one that I don't want to ever feel again. I know today, at least for today I won't be out on another run.
This lyric is about early sobriety. I know I could speak for myself when I say that early sobriety is the make or break point. You're still depressed, and have dark days and dark nights. It's the time when most people just say fuck it, and go back to using. I was able to get through the dark days and the dark nights, and come out the other side and be the person that I am today. I know what it feels like to be like I am today, because I had long-term sobriety before, and I went through that early sobriety pain. All I can say about that early sobriety time is don't think too much, don't complicate things, just stay clean one day at a time and things will get better. They did for me. I kept it simple, but one foot in front of the other, and work my way through any of the pain. There is light at the end of the tunnel, you just have to give it time.
This lyric is a pretty simple lyric about when I was using drugs and knew that my life was headed in the wrong direction. Down deep I knew that I was going to crash and burn because it was a dead end direction. I needed to make a U-turn and turn my life around, which I did. Having done that, for almost 3 years now, my life is definitely in the right direction. There's no worse feeling than having a life dependent on drugs and alcohol. And there's no better feeling to have the freedom to do what you want because you've arrested that problem. I'm very grateful to be clean and sober today. Sometimes you know what you have to do to make that U-turn, but it's the hardest thing that you'll ever have to do if you are an addict.
