lyrics


Hush darling
Your silence is defining
I know your hurting in the worst way, you don’t wanna stay
There will time to go but its not your time so don’t leave me I need you here to fight this war and I don’t wanna see a world without you it wouldn’t be the same the same at all 
Your future awaits you here I can feel it, it’s so close
And I know right now that you wouldn’t believe me. When I tell you that your purpose here will be what you see it. Breathe it
There will come a time to go but it’s not your time so 
don’t leave me I need you here to fight this war 
and I don’t wanna see a world without you it wouldn’t be the same the same at all.
So don’t go. So don’t pass the pain on.  And you’re strong
And I know your tired and annoyed at the sleep wont change and the stars don’t seem as bright as they used to 
We will fight it till you’re alright and the pains outgrown cause you’re not alone
So don’t leave me I need to here to fight this war and I don’t wanna see a world without you
 it wouldn’t be the same the same at all
so don’t leave me I need you here to fight this war
 and I don’t wanna see a world without you
It wouldn’t be the same at all
so don’t go

I'm glad depression is finally getting the spotlight it deserves. When we hear some one has depression we just assume "Oh they'll get over it, they're just having a shit day" but when we hear cancer we start panicing and we give everything to help the person. It's not only depression, it's nearly every neurological disease such as anorexia, bulimia, anxiety, etc.

 I've been through it, and I found the only way to get out of it was through love. Just letting go of everything, forgetting all my stress, and focusing on the people around me. It's not worth it to leave this world, as Joelle said you will just pass the pain on to the people that love you. No matter the reason for your depression, there is always hope, you have just gone down a wrong path in life and you will find a better one and a better day will come. Don't be scared to talk about it to people close with you, talking always helps, especially with experts in the field and with the many hotlines and websites for depression and suicide. We all know you're strong enough to get through this, and you'll one day take this pain to motivate you in the future. You are your only enemy.

Joey, this song has legitimately saved lives. I just want you to know.

[myaevans]

I hope you know how inspiring this is. i am 15 and i have been suicidal for a few years, i have seen so much abuse and bullying and bullshit in the world and i havent wanted to live anymore. I know i have to stay here for my beautiful mother and my 2 little sisters. I feel very worthless and everything, but i know i cant hurt myself and im staying strong. this made me stronger. thank you!! i love you.

I feel like a lot of the people on here are young and I'm not much older. I'm 16 years old, 17 in around 8 months and I know you all hear this so often but it will get better. Whatever you're going through, you will overcome it. I'm not saying your life will be perfect, I have gone through multiple events this year that have knocked me back down but with every hurtful event, you become a little more wiser and a little more stronger and I know you won't believe me, you don't even know me, just try and don't give up

[kanepratley]

I'm a 16 year old male who has had a up and down life and for the last 3 weeks I have thought about suicide so many times and this song has really helped me so thank tou

[faithforeman]

This song❤️❤️😭😭
Makes me realize people care even if they don't know you...This song means so much to me😭😭
Please continue to make songs like this

[youknowbaylie]

Funny how this is absolutely pure talent yet we have these girls who are famous only because they flash their tits around and have catchy (meaningless) songs... Your voice, the lyrics are so truly beautiful I am so glad you've fought against the industry bullying you into changing and becoming "one of them". You're a beautiful woman with a strong heart just keep doing you, you're an fantastic inspiration to someone like me and I'm glad I'm alive to witness your talents.

[ebonyjo]

This song is so perfect, it has the best message and it's exactly what people need to hear.

[elleminati]

Today has not been the best of days for me, I was ready to end it all. I have suffered severe depression and anxiety from a young age and always felt the need to do this. I've always believed that no one understood me and judged me for it but I couldn't help it. Then now that I have heard this song my view has been changed and I feel like I am finally not alone. There needs to be more songs like this, thank you Joelle for making me see a brighter light than the darkness I have grown accustomed to. Thank you with all my heart, you are a true artist.

[TaniecYT]

that was very emotional, very good message, lately 9 kids this year alone 9 kids near my age in my town have taken their lives and i think i will use your song to reach out when we do events to make people aware of how serious this is, thank you

[xaivang]

I could sing this all day in the shower i wake up early in the morning just to sing this in the shower even though my voice cracks so bad lol. I love your everything every time you talk allI hear is magical wisdom coming off of you your so down earth yet at the same time so magical. Keep doing what your doing, whatever path you may take and any struggles you may face you WILL prevail over them i know it.

[__jwolf]

The people that always seem the happiest bringing people up are the ones that are feeling alone & depressed..

Rip baby girl.. You're in a better place now..

[mishaelataekema]

this made me cry such a beautiful and touching inspiring song, I'm sure it will help many, its helped me since i herd it, R.I.P to all the people who's taken there lives from depression such as Simone Battle and Robbin Williams 

[vvinters]

I've been through depression and I've recently lost a friend to it earlier this year. The war is real. I've just listened to your song for the 5th time and I can't stop the tears from streaming down my face. Thank you Joelle <3

[samanthakelley]

i suffer from depression and so many other things. iv attempted b4 and i just found this song its 3:04 am and it is 2/12/2018 i am 19 yrs old now and this song is so soothing and it hits a nerve bc it makes me think damn she doesnt even know me but yet it sounds like she cares in my voice... and it's amazing. i like 2 listen 2 music and sing 2 help me escape and cope... thought about being a singer myself ive been told i should but the odds of that are well... u get my point... rare. thank u 4 makin this song and helping me feel hope in my heart in this moment if not 4ever. maybe some day i will get lucky and hit the lottery or some maricle will happen and id get 2 meet u XD i can dream right... well take care i gotta press play again :)

[mariahau]

Thank you for this song! I had hit a point in my life I felt like everyone, including my son, was better off without me. I had gained weight, my medical problems had got to a point that I was always in pain. I just wanted to go to sleep & not wake up. But thanks to music, my husband, & my son who is my miracle & my world (He is 11 but highly intelligent) all coming together to show me how important I am to them, my dad getting out of the hospital, & getting a new house in a safe area, and getting better health insurance, I'm doing so much better! So thank you again for your music! It's made me realize no one is perfect, no marriage is perfect, no life is perfect! Just focus on the little things & the rest will work out!

[chloeevans]

My sister has server depression and suicidal tendencies so this song hit my heart a lot. It makes me tear up every time I hear it. Thank you for creating such a beautiful song <3 xx
