  • Falling down again
    Around I go but where am I heading
    No where it would seem
    Pick me up
    get me back on my feet
    Don't let me fall now
    Hold me up
    So I can go on living
    Don't let me drown now
    Please come
    Save me
    I can't hold on
    I'm Slipping

    You can slip, but you can’t fall Dave. If you’re going through hell, keep on going. I am fighting prostatecancer for the last 12 years, and had my fair share of misery.
    Never give up, get up and go on! You have so much to give and share.

      So true, the ups and downs move us onwards, away from the ups and downs - literally a cycle!
      Reminds me of a favourite lyric from the Sugarcubes, with a jolly tune and a very rude title:
      "Don't act like there is no tomorrow
      You should use the pain and the sorrow
      To fill you up with power
      Life's both sweet and sour!"

    On the road to no-where but no-where is just fine. Gonna live my life my way and if you want you can share some of my time. First song I ever wrote and what life has taught me since is that every moment is a precious voyage of discovery, surprise, heartache, great beauty, love, pain and horror over which we have only a personal amount of control. It is this personal control that makes it worthwhile - we can shape what we can positively affect and regret what others manage to screw up. The sharing of life with like minded people is immense and for me music is that connection.

  • @justice100forwin2
    @justice100forwin2 5 років тому

    Dave, This is a really great tune. The guitar is so atmospheric and the pain in your vocals is raw and something special. Dave you have to remember that YOU are someone really special. They call Dave Grohl , the nicest guy in Rock.....well YOU are the nicest guy on YT. Sometimes life can feel like it's taking out of you more than you have to give. But Dave you have so much to give, and not just the guitar playing......You're always so positive about things and look for the best in everything and I'm sure everyone. You're honest and appreciative , in a time when so many aren't. Sometimes we have to fight the worse thought's and emotions...but we do HAVE TO FIGHT! Because I'm sure things have happened to you, that you thought never would. But they did, and as hard as it might be right now to believe good things will come in the future....I promise you they will. You're too special for them not to. Just stay strong and keep on keeping on....the pain really does go away. When people said that to me I thought it was BS.....but the pain , the numbness it drifts away , just keep busy. As for now don't listen to the bad thoughts, just KNOW inside you're an awesome human being that has come through really bad times before,and that you will do again. I've sent ya a big man hug through the interweb :)

Played the track and my head just fell into a room spin (not the beer). The track puts a bunch of things into perspective if you listen carefully.

    Hi Dave. Is this just a song, or are you going through the anxiety thing again?
    Two things helped mine a lot - in fact, from being unable to eat or sleep last year, I'm normal now (well, as near normal as I was to begin with...)
    CBT - Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - specifically, relaxation exercises, suggested by the mental health nurse in our practice.
    Hi Strength Vitamin B Complex from Healthspan.
    I'm reluctant to mention the latter, because it sounds like one of those quick fix cranky ideas, but it had a dramatic effect on me. Of course, it will only work if you're deficient in Vitamin B - it presumably won't work at all if it's something else that's causing it. I know I must have been deficient because I had physical symptoms that it cured as well.
