about

This song is about committing to being open, about allowing for the darkness *and* the light.

But this recording, this release, this is about the power of friendship and collaboration.

Without the prompt from my friend to “just write and record one quickly,” I wouldn’t have. Without Zac singing with me, Scott making the mix, and ATW designing the cover this song is just another session on my hard drive.

-Syd Sidney (Feb 2023)

lyrics

I need to connect my heart
Back to the words I say
Tell you something
Before I fade…away

If I believed in all my thoughts
I’d end up nobody
Convinced that the best of me
Is long gone and behind

What if it was ?
What if I can’t ?
What if I never ?

Come back to you
And tell you the truth
And tell you that
Whether or not I’m beginning or ending I’m shining a light in the dark

I promised I’d find a way to get better
Pills or patience or time
Pick a path let it ride

But what I choose won’t make a difference
If I don’t come to grips
With what’s really been making me sick
living a past life

Not if I was
Not if I can’t
Not if I never

Come back to you
And tell you the truth
And tell you that
Whether or not I’m beginning or ending I’m shining a light in the dark
Whatever I find I am finally descending I’m shining a light in the dark
In the dark
