Thank you for being here with me and supporting me along this journey I've been on; the road never traveled.
✨
For a long time, I knew I'd be going on this road alone, and was content in that. But recently I've finally come to understand that I'm not alone.
✨
I'm not the type of person to talk about my feelings or what I'm going through. I write songs about it instead.
✨
So nobody in my life knows what I'm dealing with ... apart from those who listen to my music.
✨
I remember when I officially broke up with my now ex-husband, so many of my fans weren't even slightly surprised, because you had all seen it coming. You could hear it in my music.
✨
Earlier this year, I wrote a song called 'The Only Road', because I wanted to write a song about love and hope, but didn't quite have anything to base it off. So I based it off certain Kpop groups I follow, and their relationships with their fans. I found it all so beautiful, how often they interacted and supported one-another.
✨
But whenever I tried to produce or record the song, it was never right. It always felt wrong. So I scrapped it.
✨
I was recently talking about abusive relationships with some people, and they all said, \"at least we all had friends and family to get us through it\". But I didn't. I went through all of my suffering alone.
✨
But I wasn't alone.
✨
I realized that through everything, I had You.
✨
Some of You have been with me for almost ten years. You've been listening and supporting and giving me love and light, and I was never quite awake enough to realize that. I was so used to being alone, I wasn't ready to let anyone in.
✨
So I decided to record a raw, acoustic album to say Thank You. All your favourites (I tallied the votes) are on here (hopefully! I'll do this again ☺️)
✨
And I finally recorded 'The Only Road'. No production, no fancy instruments, just me and my guitar. And this time, I thought about You.
✨
And fucking cried like every damn time. So. If my voice sounds shit and wobbly throughout the last half of that song, it's because I was trying to not fucking cry. 😂
✨
Acoustic and raw. Complete with voice cracks and everything. 😂
