about

I wrote this song in 2021 whilst I wasn't in the best of places mentally.
As someone who has lived with depression associated with incurable chronic pain for over 14 years, I feel that almost every day I have to battle with my emotions, and I often struggle to make sense of the way I feel.
This song reveals my ups and downs and I am sure that it will be relatable for many others too xx
Sun Hat In The Rain is a song of positivity born out of sadness;
Trying to stay positive, despite living with negative feelings.
I hope that everyone enjoys this and I send love to all that have followed me and supported me on my musical journey so far xxxx

lyrics

I think it's gonna be one of those days
Hair tied back and I'm walking in a maze
So wound up I feel like a coiled spring
Slamming doors and forgetting everything

Don't understand why I get like this
Like I'm feeling swallowed up inside
To get out of my head would feel like bliss
But I'll just hold on and I'll take the ride yeah

Upside down and inside out again
Trying to be my own best friend
On the happy pills to keep me sane
Head bowed down and pretending it's alright
Meditating so I can sleep at night
Wearing my sun hat in the rain

Struggling to keep my own self company
I feel like a burden to myself
And I can understand if you don't wanna hang with me
Cause baby I'm a hazard to your health

Don't understand why I get like this
Like I'm feeling swallowed up inside
To get out of my head would feel like bliss
But I'll just hold on and I'll take the ride yeah

Upside down and inside out again
Learning to be my own best friend
On the happy pills to keep me sane
Head bowed down and pretending it's alright
Meditating so I can sleep at night
Wearing my sun hat in the rain

Take me out take me out of my head
Replace me with somebody else instead
Take me out take me out of my head
And wake me on the right side of the bed

Upside down and inside out again
Learning to be my own best friend
On the happy pills to keep me sane
Head bowed down and pretending it's alright
Meditating so I can sleep at night
Wearing my sun hat in the rain

Upside down and inside out again
Upside down and inside out again
