Steemit OpenMic Week 88 Break Out The Crazy - Everywhere (Original Song)


So this song, as you may have guessed, is about death. It’s extremely hard to get through without breaking down for me so I’m glad I only started to loose it at the end. A good friend of mine lost his best friend and uttered this phrase as he spoke of his loss - “You are everywhere now”. I thought it was one of the most beautiful things I had ever heard. They say that no new air is created. That we breathe in and out air that has passed from person to person through animals over seas and over continents. Over lifetimes. I thought what better way to honor death than in this way so I wrote this song. I also had recently seen a few shows about hauntings and reaching out to deceased loved ones through mediums. I heard how people have vivid dreams and often feel the presence of those they have lost. While the song wasn’t inspired by a specific personal experience of course I thought of my own experiences with death. Somehow the thought of them being everywhere was comforting. Somehow it seemed true.

Break Out The Crazy

Everywhere

Where have you gone?
I cant hear you
The light flickered off
And I don't see you
But I feel you close
Are you somewhere there?
Somewhere in the air?
Somehow?

In a new place
Endless dawn and endless days
You are everywhere
You are everywhere
You are everywhere now

The wind sings your song
As the seasons change
Somedays seem too long
My hearts beating your name
In my dreams we laugh
I see your face my friend
And we make new plans
Even now

In a new place
Endless dawn and endless days
You are everywhere
You are everywhere
You are everywhere now

And I’m forever changed
By the grace of your joy
The notes of a symphony
Played from day you were born
The most beautiful sound
I hear You in the ocean's fury
It Celebrates your life
In all its glory

In a new place
Endless dawn and endless days
You are everywhere
You are everywhere
You are everywhere now
