a new song.

Regardless of what people think of me or expect from me- it's all just therapy. Progress- not perfection.

thank you for sharing this. it is - i don't want to say "beautiful" exactly because that almost seems too easy or too cliche or too cheap a word. hmm. i feel like maybe you would understand what i mean if i say (which i mean): it is, to me, full of love, and makes me feel loving and in a weird sort of way also makes me feel loved.

amazing. good luck on your continued sobriety. I grew up with two parents who were addicted to drugs and never got clean--recovery is wonderful for both the addict and those who love them.

wow. I totally dig this song, and your hair.

I don't have the alcohol addiction going for me, but the rest of it, totally resonates with me (so for me, I feel it should go "it is yr 25" as I've been dealing (or not) with a lot of this since I was a kid.

Thanks for sharing.

thank you kimya <3

my best friend erin and I are in a band and you've always been a big inspiration to us. your music is really honest, and it's helped me stop thinking that i'm a "shitty songwriter", whatever that is. or that i'm just shitty, which is an ongoing project.

telepathic hugs to you! -sara

thank you for posting this. thank you very very much. it has such a .. clear feel about it, .. maybe it's the video, too, not only the song.. but it feels so much as if you were sitting on the balcony next to me, right now.. looking at the same misty summer night sky.

I think this is a beautiful song! And you look really good in this video.

I went to AA meetings for a couple months, found a sponsor, started the first step, but the weight of not-doing things I was supposed to be not-doing fell down upon me and i fell back into old habits.

You're my favorite artist and it makes me proud that my favorite artist is about sobriety. I say proud, because I can't think of a better word.

the weight of not-doing things I was supposed to be not-doing fell down upon me and i fell back into old habits.this is why i haven't found a sponsor yet, but i think it's also why i need one, you know?

if you want someone you don't know to talk to, which i think can help sometimes, let me know.
