I wrote this song nearly 10 years ago for a girl in rehab just for fun

Hey Michelle:
Hey Michelle, even behind those walls
I see that light shining out
Hey Michelle, I think you’re beautiful
Without a doubt
I know it’s hard to open up sometimes,
free yourself, share your mind, but I’m not asking you to

I only want you to give it a chance
there won’t be flowers or romance
I just wanna spend time with you

We can talk, get something to eat
no expectations where this will lead
or we can sit there quietly
I just want you to spend some time with me

Hey Michelle, you say you know who I am
you’ve got me all figured out
Hey Michelle, I’m not that complicated
let me show you what I’m about

I see the way you look at me
you try to hide it but I believe
I’ve made an impression on you
So won’t you spend some time with me
we can take it easy
cause I know what you’re going through

We can talk, get something to eat
no expectations where this will lead
or we can sit there quietly
I just want you to spend some time with me
I just want you to spend some time with me……………naked. by @abe.garrett

The truth is, I died several years ago. What you see is just an empty shell. So please don’t talk to me about healing or tell me everything will be ok. It’s way too late for that. Sometimes it’s not ok and that’s just the way it is. by @abe.garrett

I wrote this song 20 years ago. Another Day.
I wake, just another day to face, but I don’t want to move, I want to go back to that magical place, well I know it’s over for now, so I, sit up in bed, I clear my head, it’s another day, another bill to pay, so I get ready and go to work, another day to deal with stupid people. Once I’m there, I’m feeling tired and drained, overworked, underpaid, daydreaming is the only thing keeping me sane as the hours creep by. I don’t wanna live like this, struggle to find my way out but the doors locked window sealed and these walls are closing in on me. Once I get home, it’s the same old thing, I look around just want to scream, my life is a mess, overwhelmed with stress, so I sit and I watch TV. Try to keep an optimistic view, at least it got a roof over my head, clothes on my back, food to eat, there’s so many more unfortunate people than me, but it’s hard to keep that state of mind, when you’re struggling all the time, wondering where the money is coming from next, drowning in this in this endless sea.

Just another day in my life, keep telling myself it’ll be all right, trying to keep a smile on my face, oh it gets so hard.

Drama comes setting in, finding out who’s my friend, wondering these girl troubles ever going to end. I go out get messed up again, I know it’s not the right way, but I’m tired of fighting reality, and I’m feeling so lonely, but then, I just end up, disappointed in myself, try to shake this feeling, but it’s stuck here with me, so I sit there hands to my head elbows to my knees, I let out of sigh it’s just another day in my life.

Just another day in my life, keep telling myself it’ll be all right trying to keep a smile on my face, oh it gets so hard but I keep hoping it’ll be a better day tomorrow, yes I keep hoping it’ll be a better day tomorrow.

Well, I lie wake in bed I pray, Lord please bring me better days, please give me the strength to keep going on, and I know there’s so many things about me, I need to change, it gets so hard to see, please show me the way.

Just another day in my life, keep telling myself it’ll be all right, trying to keep a smi by @abe.garrett

Tiny hell

In civilized society, we say it’s not OK to discriminate on things like gender or your race but no one seems to give a shit about all these height supremacist. To insult someone you say they’re small, can’t date them under 6 feet tall, you speak to them with no respect at all, you pick them last to play basketball.

Chorus: I was 5 inches from heaven then the Lord stuffed me at 5’ 7”. You would think it’s easy for a straight white male, but I’m living here in this tiny hell.

Short guys are angry, yeah it’s true, wouldn’t you be if no one took your little problem seriously? Girls only care about one thing and it’s height, guys always saying they can beat you in a fight, walking twice as fast to catch up on a hike, missing the whole show at concerts that you’re like. How do you think it makes you feel about yourself, no I don’t need uppies just to reach the top shelf, no I’m not a mix between a leprechaun and an elf, no I don’t need a booster seat, I drive like everybody else.

Chorus:

It wouldn’t matter if I had a lot of money, but this Lord of mine really thinks he’s funny. What lesson would he possibly be trying to teach by putting everything just out of my reach? Trying to figure out the joke as a lie lie awake at night in bed, I’m not laughing, it must’ve went over my head or am I being punished, am I already dead? Cause I’ve been praying, I don’t think he’s heard a word I’ve said.

Chorus:

Girls who say they like it can be worse don’t you see? What the fuck did you just call me, a shrot king? Same thing, as if I called you my chubby little queen. It so mean. What would you do? I said bitch look down into my eyes when I’m talking to you. One said I was an unfinished plan, one said I had a lot of love for half a man, one said I had to jump to reach the electrical socket that I was so cute she wanted to keep me in her pocket. I stood up on a stool, snatched my picture from my locket, then sent her on her way faster than a hypersonic rocket.

To give you an understanding of what a genius I am, two days before going on this 14 mile 6,500ft. elevation gain hike, which I have already done before so I know how strenuous it is, I thought it would be a good idea to push myself to get a new squat PR (personal record) in the gym, of 390lbs. I was suffering the entire hike, but luckily I had Ben there to continuously remind me that I only had myself to blame. taken in Iron Mountain (Los Angeles County) by @abe.garrett

Last Thanksgiving, I shared a post of a solo camping trip with the captain describing how broken and alone I’ve been since my last relationship and how the holidays make it worse. Who would’ve thought in just one year so much would change? The gains I’ve been getting in the gym are unbelievable. Happy Thanksgiving. taken in Deep Creek Hot Springs by @abe.garrett

Fantasy: I fell in love with a dream, a fantasy, someone I doubtlessly believe her to be, but when I saw who she really was my whole world fell apart, it shattered my whole soul forget just a broken heart, now the only thing I know that’s real, is this unrelenting pain I feel, so please stop telling me everything will be ok, this time it’s not going to be all right, part of me has died inside, I know you’re trying to help but that’s toxic positivity, cause no matter how much time comes to heal these wounds, the scars left behind would be visible from the moon, and it doesn’t matter how many fish are in the sea, I still lost the one I thought was connected to me.
Chorus: It’s not just a lost love that’s killing me, it’s not knowing who to trust or what to believe, it’s not knowing what is real or how to feel about anything anymore, when everything I thought I knew walked right out the door, and the only reason I’m still here after this fall, is no matter how alone I feel I know I’m not alone at all, so I’m holding on but for how long I really can’t say, it’s taking all my strength just to make it through the day./She didn’t die she just ceased to exist, one minute she was right there the next emptiness, and I still see images of her, she looks happy, but the one next to her that’s definitely not me, and every time it’s like a dagger stabbing deeper in my chest, I can hardly breathe, I didn’t know it can hurt any worse but apparently it can, but she’s not the one I care about, that’s not my baby, that’s the selfish bitch who destroyed my reality, cause the one I loved would lie awake at night with me, with her head on my chest, telling me I was everything to her and she could never leave, no matter how hard it got she’d make it work cause I was worth it, she walked out calling me worthless. Chorus:— / And when I called choking on my tears, she just blocked me and was gone like I didn’t dedicate years of my life, like I didn’t say I do take you as my wife, just left me in pieces hurt so bad I wanted to die. by @abe.garrett
