Mental Health Awareness Month
Mental Heath isn’t just a challenge for some people, it affects everyone and can strike in an instant. Singer Nick Cave was wrapping up his work on Skeleton Tree an album he was able to self fun and at that point was the highest amount of success he had seen. But before he recorded the vocals his fifteen year old son fell off a cliff and died. I think the sound of loss and heartbreak in the song I Need You is one of those things that is transcendentally human. One of the only certainties in life is loss, everyone knows the pain and people are more willing to help you cope than you think they are.
I Need You
“I will miss you when you’re gone
I’ll miss you when you’re gone away forever
Cause nothing really matters”
Flagpole Sitta
“I’m not sick but I’m not well
And I’m so hot ‘cause I’m in hell”
Better
“Lost myself a month ago
Better
Now I’m right, but I’m alone”
Prom Dress
“I can’t help the fact I like to be alone
It might sound kinda sad, but that’s just what I seem to know
I tend to handle things usually by myself
And I can’t ever seem to try and ask for help”
