about

Written after a long night at Marigold Cultural Centre, where I worked at the time, and would often stay late just to play guitar and write songs in the beautiful acoustics of the theater. Inside My Hell was written during a period in time where I was battling a heavy depression prior to seeking the help that I needed to get back to being myself. There is a fine line between dealing with your mental issues and wallowing in your own pity because of them. Acknowledging them is step one, step two is taking action, without taking step two, step one is pointless.

On a side note there must have been special about that night, despite how down and out as I felt, I wrote three songs that night. I had been in a writers block of sorts, mostly because i found it difficult to be motivated to do anything at the time. This song was the first time I ever used a capo on anything I ever wrote, sometimes you just need a subtle change to kickstart yourself again!

This track features Dave Curry of Broke on Payday on drums.

lyrics

Inside My Hell
- R. Johnson

Lord I've been wasted
Time's not been kind
It's always the same
Only to blame
Someone dead to me

Oh yeah
Your distraction's all a blur
Oh yeah
Crossed the line of disturbed
Oh yeah
If I I let it take me
I'll be damned, I'll damned

Throw me a line
I feel I'm slipping now
Almost in time
But I'm off trippin now
Everything's fine
In the world outside
Now welcome inside
My hell

Lord I'm still wasted
Afraid to face my thoughts
Alone I am lost
I'd be better off
If I could disappear to the world

Oh yeah
Your distraction's all a blur
Oh yeah
Crossed the line of disturbed
Oh yeah
If I I let it take me
I'll be damned, I'll damned

Throw me a line
I feel I'm slipping now
Almost in time
But I'm off trippin now
Everything's fine
In the world outside
Now welcome inside
My hell

Solo

Throw me a line
I feel I'm slipping now
Almost in time
But I'm off trippin now
Everything's fine
In the world outside
Now welcome inside
My hell
Throw me a line
I feel I'm slipping now
Almost in time
But I'm off trippin now
Everything's fine
In the world outside
Now welcome inside
