Happy New Year! So excited to release my first song of 2021: My Regret. What's the inspiration? When two people you love, fall out of love, and all you know is no more, questions and regret overcome. This is it. With the divorce of my parents, everything that I grew up knowing about family, security, and love fell apart. It led to self-doubt and regret. Regardless of the type of loss, feelings of regret are natural and painful. What’s most important is that we can move forward with perspective; without the baggage.

My Regret, Lyrics
Verse 1:
Did I mean it
When I said I don’t care what you think about me leavin’
Cuz I really didn’t feel it
Tell me was it selfish
To give you up for what I wanted in the moment
I was tired of pretending we’re doing okay
Pre chorus:
Starting now to realize
Guilt is ruthless
Cuz the truth is
Chorus:
I’m livin off blame and bad excuses
Petrified retracing all my steps
Haunted by the rumors
Shadows of the truth
Oh I live with the ghost of my regret
Verse 2:
Did you mean it
All the things you never said, hidden by your silent treatment
Always scared of what you’re thinkin’
Give me a reason
Why staying would have even made any difference
It just felt so easy to throw it away
Pre chorus:
Thought the hurt would heal with time
But guilt is ruthless
Cuz the truth is
Chorus:
I’m livin’ off blame and bad excuses
Petrified retracing all my steps
Haunted by the rumors
Shadows of the truth
Oh I live with the ghost of my regret
Bridge:
Keeps me up at night
There’s nowhere I can hide
Guilt is ruthless
Chorus:
I’m livin’ off blame and bad excuses
Petrified retracing all my steps
Haunted by the rumors
Shadows of the truth
Oh I live with the ghost of my regret
