Hey Our Basement,
While speaking out on mental health issues or addiction has become a “trendy” topic as of late, it sadly feels like a lot of us are becoming indifferent to the idea of it. The fact remains that nearly 800,000 people die from suicide every year. It’s still a very real issue that needs continuous support.
“I Won’t Die For You” takes place in the clouded mind of someone going through the heartbreaking motions of addiction and depression. Though I’ve never found myself enveloped in this sort of darkness, I’ve witnessed so many beautiful people I love struggle in silence. It’s left me feeling broken and burning.
This song began as an outlet for me to cope with my feelings surrounding the existence of these things in my life, but now it’s yours to relate to whether you personally face these struggles or have someone you love who does.
This past year was a bit of a springboard for 2020. I’ll be looking to launch my debut EP (4-6 brand new tracks), with an accompanying live show, in the spring/summer. It’s going to be a busy year, and I’m super stoked for it. Hope you stick around for the ride.
BENJII 🌿🖤
hello!
Hello,
Homemade chili for lunch today.
needed more spice but OK justthe same.
Hi Scott. That sounds like a good lunch for here too. Too bad I didn’t make any.
There very little food in the house so I mixed some breadcrumbs and eggs together along with not quite enough seasoning before cooking in the frying pan.
It wasn’t too bad, I will work on the flavour.
I have a left over wild mushroom and coconut soup to have for lunch. It is seasoned with thai peppers, lemongrass, garlic, cilantro and salt and pepper. Mr morgana and I made it a few days ago. I bought a ton of groceries last week planning on making a bunch of food and then landed myself in the ER and have barely been able to move since then so he has been forced into the kitchen.
I am taking less morphine because I hate it and am going to a physio today and have an MRI tomorrow so I hope to be moving further out of the red zone of pain soon.
I can’t hear the lyrics in todays song because everything is distracted to my back … I’ll listen to backlogs once I can think/hear/move.
It is sunny today so I am going to find a corner of the yard to rest in.
The only time I have been given morphine was when they reset my broken leg in hospital and my first thought was how I could see why people become addicted to it
That was Devin’s thought after he had morphine the first time Garf. He has since had it more but no addiction yet.
Thinking of you Morgana and sending healing pain free vibes your way.
Speaking of Devin, he was on a local tv station this morning talking about the play he is in. A few years ago, I never imagined he would be able to go on TV and talk. What theatre has brought to his life is simply remarkable!
can I have his autgraph?
I can see what I can arrange. Ha!
