about

Worse for Wear is a solemn rock poem written for those who have not only struggled with pain and trauma, but also unwanted judgement from those around them.

So often, after we're hurt, people we know look at us as broken - not necessarily with ill intent, but it adds a new dimension to the pain and struggle to heal. Worse for Wear is about coping not only with your pain, but with how your pain makes others perceive you.

Recorded with the help of the esteemed Justin Havu.

lyrics

People have hurt you, it troubles my mind
Its not fair to tell you "you'll heal with time"
You carry a burden in your heart, wounds from the past won't fully heal
Reminders of the pain you've faced, you know they're real

Judging eyes see you there
They can't see the cross you bear, you're worse for wear
You're worse for wear

But time still goes on, and memories fade
You're left alone to cope yourself while others age
And now this burden in your heart, and isolation that you feel
Reminders of the pain you've faced become surreal

Judging eyes see you there
They can't see the cross you bear, you're worse for wear
You're worse for wear

You're worse for wear, you're worse for wear, you're worse for wear, you're worse for wear
