You've spent too long waiting on a change
But it never came
Did you wait in vain?
I don't know your name
But I know you well
I'm just like you in that I had to fight through every day
Trying to numb the pain
Drink it all away
Smoke another strain
Didn't know myself
I'm not gonna tell you it's okay
Or to not complain
Or that it's a phase
But you're not insane
Even when your back's up against a wall
Even when you're down, and almost out
When it looks the worst and getting worse
Still alive
You can always try

Weight loss isn't linear. It's a lot of up and downs. I'm starting over for the 3rd time in 2018. It doesn't matter how many times you've failed, get back up again and let's do this! Can't wait to be back down to my lowest weight so I can keep going and get a NEW lowest weight! One step at a time!

This is my 2nd Preorder Reward song. The prompt was pretty open-ended: "when God closes a door, he opens a window."
I wrote it about how we have to be brave and open when doors seem to close in our lives. And when we do that, and really open ourselves up, love finds us.
My fiancee and I worked out the harmonies for this song and she is performing on the recording with me. She has a lovely voice... hopefully I can convince her to keep singing with me.
It's a rough recording. We flub the words and speed up a little bit. But it's okay.
Lyrics:
Down on my luck
Deep into another rut I'd fallen
Lost all my love
The future I was dreaming of
Was broken
I knew I had to break free
From all the things that I believed were just going to be a given
And so I started from scratch
And somehow got myself on track and now
You're loving me
In ways I can't believe
And on my darkest of days
If you'd have told me I would feel this way
I would have disagreed.
(Chorus)
I used to look through the blinds
Did not know where to go
Every door that I tried was closed
But when love closes a door
Usually you will find
An open window
So I climbed out of my window
And found my way to you.
Sometimes I doubt
The things I do and think and feel
Get caught in my own trap
I hold on to you
The same way that I always do
Until my worries pass
But still we all have to climb
through the window that is open for us
No time to stand still
God knows I'm glad that I tried
To give myself to someone else
Cuz now
You're loving me
In ways I can't believe
And on my darkest of days
If you'd have told me I would feel this way
I would have disagreed.
(Chorus) 2x
