lyrics

I quit my job. Don't have much money in my bank account. I cry a lot. Still don't know what my life's about.
I sleep in Sunday mornings. Don't go to church but I still pray. I tend to snap without warning. Have a nervous breakdown every other day.
If you knew how I really felt, you'd just walk away.

I don't wanna tell you what's wrong.
You don't need to hear my problems today.
Don't tell me to be strong.
You wouldn't understand me anyway.

There's no invitations to my pity party. My Facebook status remains pristine. I won't be blamed if a war gets started. There's no drama to be seen.
If they knew how I really felt, they'd send me away.

I don't wanna tell you what's wrong.
You don't need to hear my problems today.
Don't tell me to be strong.
You wouldn't understand me anyway.
I can't tell you what's wrong.
My problems wouldn't get solved anyway
I can't always be strong.
I'll be lucky if I make it through today.

If you knew how I really felt, you'd just walk away. If they knew how I really felt, they'd send me away.

I don't wanna tell you what's wrong.
You don't need to hear my problems today.
Don't tell me to be strong.
You wouldn't understand me anyway.
I can't tell you what's wrong.
My problems wouldn't get solved anyway
I can't always be strong.
I'll be lucky if I make it through today.

about

Candace Griffin Madison, Wisconsin

"Alternative and folky, Candace Griffin's music comes straight from the heart. As a songwriter, she takes inspiration from the life around her, and with honest words and acoustic-driven emotions, she puts her listeners right in the moment. You'll think the songs were written just for you." (Bio by Caitlin Wildhagen) ... more

The Sorry EP
by Kat and the Hurricane

Less sad "sad lesbian music". More prominent is the journey of self love and self acceptance, all wrapped up in some dance-y synth and rockin beats! Candace Griffin

Robbie can take you to another world with his music, or just make your own world sound so much cooler. Candace Griffin
