Embrace (draft) (Patreon)

This is a song I wrote with the audience in one of my Kumu streams! They gave me a bunch of words and I had to turn it into a song. This is the final product.

Blankets to hug me on a cold day

Ice cream (I scream?) to numb the pain

I'm bottling up

But it's not enough

Night sky to close another Sunday

Cold beers to numb the pain

I'm bottling up

But it's not enough

I wanna feel

Something real

Not another temporary escape

Music is slowly losing beauty

Art used to be an escape

I'm bottling up but it's not enough

Breathing is harder when you're drowning

In tears that you stored away

I'm bottling up but it's not enough

I wanna feel

Something real

Not another temporary relief

Oh I pray

And I sway

What's the deal with temporary belief?

I'm taking my dreams

I'm taking my plans

I'm leaving it all up in Your hands

I'm doing my best

If this is a best

Given by You then I can rest

Melancholy won't consume

When I know this worry is misplaced

'Cause home is where I lay my worries down

And trade them for Your warm embrace
