about

This song was inspired by my niece Carissa, who committed suicide in 2017 at the age of 32. Musically, it was inspired by Killing Joke's "Love Like Blood".

lyrics

Verse 1:
Is there an end to this misery
A light at the end of the tunnel road
You left this world before me
'Cause you couldn't take the load
That load that is on me now
As I fall further in the abyss
And I wonder if light's shining down
Will I ever climb out of this

Chorus:
As I stare into the light
I wonder where it will now go
As it shines into my eyes
Will I die and still have my soul

Verse 2:
Carissa's death, it pained me
And it helped bring me to a new low
It killed what's left of the heart in me
The darkness, it still grows

Chorus

Verse 3:
A light to illuminate this sphere
Of possibilities

I knew Joe Mayeur, the guitarist on this album. It's also a great album if you're into reggae from the Dairy State. Buskers
