“We’ve got so many skeletons hiding in the depths of our mind; So many secrets we all try to erase over time. Oh, but with you… I no longer want to hide; I’m trying to come clean with you tonight.”

I’ve been up all night working on the lyrics for this song. I’ve only just got to work on the vocals, but I think it’s coming along pretty good so far!

I hope Hayden will understand.

I’m not trying to tell her that this whole thing was tit for tat because she hurt me, but I wanted to try to let her know that she’s got skeletons and dirty secrets too… we all do! 

I don’t want to hide mine from her anymore. I’m owning up and asking that she forgive me.

This acoustic version I’ve got going is nice, but I’m sure the guys will want more for the album.

I didn’t plan on making this a song for that, but pouring my heart out to Hayden seems to have brought out the best in my creativity, and I know I’ve been sleeping on the band a lot. 

She used to love Gen Z, so hopefully it’ll mean something to her…

It won’t fix what I did, but I’ve got to make it up to her. 

I strum the guitar one last time, finishing up what I have with the song, and feeling good about it. I’ve got a couple more verses I’m going to try out, but I should try to eat something and take a nap.

Harper will come to check on me later, I’m sure. The way I look right now? After a sleepless night thinking about Hayden and composing a song over it? She’d probably figure that I’m drunk.

I laugh to myself. I haven’t really been able to do that lately; I’ve been so miserable.

Maybe things are going to be alright.
