A little sadness for the solstice…

Thank you to sparky. This was going to be a spoken word, but your instrumental inspired me to sing. Here’s the mix with sparky’s instrumental.

You’ll find the vocals with and without FX.

LYRICS
As the solstice draws near
Here come the shortest days of the year
But on the other side of the hemisphere
The longest days are almost here

As seasonal affective disorder
Begins to cloud my mind
Someone on the other side of the planet
Basks in sunshine

So I force myself to focus
On the energy in my heart
To let this light shine through the darkness
And illuminate the forlorn parts

But this can be hard
When sadness makes itself the default
And memories of the past
Remind me how the default set in

But for how long will I let the darkness win?

I know what to do
Just let go, let go, let go
I know what to do
But I hold on, it’s all I have left of her
I know what to do
Finally let go, like she wants me to

As the solstice draws near
Here come the shortest days of the year
And on the other side of the hemisphere
The longest days are almost here

I’ll hold onto the balance
That somewhere out there somewhere
The light absolves the darkness
And the sadness dissolves for us all
