Music Monday – “And every, everybody dies/Fighting for their lives, just trying to survive Well now I know, I know why we say/That there’s a better place that waits beyond the grave, oh…”

Saw this on a Reddit thread about gut punch songs.  And if you have a pet, yep – this one will hurt.  It’s about putting a pet down but really, any pet you’ve had who’s died, at the end of their natural life or earlier due to accident or whatever, will hit similarly. “Euthanasia” – […]

Music Monday – “I will come back here, bring me back when I’m old/I want to lay here forever in the cold I might be cold but I’m just skin and bones/And I’ll never love England more than when covered in snow”

Music Monday – “And now, maybe now I should change/Because I’m starting to lose all my faith/While those around are beaten down each day”
