lyrics

I can’t fight this feeling when the sun won’t rise
I can’t fight this feeling when the tears won’t leave my eyes
I can’t fight this feeling knowing I won’t sleep tonight
‘Cause my mind cant find it’s way home
I can’t shake the pressure ‘cause it makes me sick
I can’t shake the pressure, so I learn to deal with it
And I learned to walk around with a constant spinning head
Thinking I could deal with it on my own

Follow me down, I won’t ask you to
I won’t ask for what I struggle to find
Follow me down, watch me break in two
I put locks on the door, I can’t think anymore

I feel like I’m haunted, like there’s someone there
Everything feels cold, and I am always, always scared
That I’m gonna fall back into what I fought to lose
What I burned with the courage inside
But I’m pushing through it, ‘cause I know I can
I won’t let my life melt into sadness and quicksand
I have more to show for every day that I have climbed
‘Cause for once, I can feel I’m alive

Follow me down, I won’t ask you to
I won’t lead you where I will not tread
Follow me down, but what’s the use
I put locks on the door, I can’t cry anymore

The years are passing and the progress made
And I’m finally grasping that these bruises, yes, they fade
And I’ll find my peace, and maybe I will sleep tonight

Even though I know I’m on my own
I’ve found that it’s good to let go
Maybe my mind will find it’s way home
Yeah, my mind will find it’s way home

about

EJ Carey Boston, Massachusetts

If you took the angst ridden anthems of the 2000s and combined them with the truth bearing storytelling of country music, you’d find yourself listening to EJ Carey. EJ’s blend of pop rock packs an emotional punch by reintroducing the sounds of her teen years to the age of Spotify under the guise of confessional plot-driven songwriting.
EJ's new EP “Outlier” is available everywhere now.
