Love this song

If you need to speak to someone and are having problems that seem overwhelming, call or text 988. It is our national mental health crisis line, and it's 24/7 and confidential.

I heard this song the other day on Amazon Music and was struck by it so much that I went ahead and ordered his album. This song is so beautiful. It's about the loss of his best friend to suicide. Any of us who have loved those who have experienced suicidal thoughts or have had them ourselves, I think, can relate. It's Suicide Prevention month, and this song is a perfect segue into having a discussion with anyone you love with depression. I like how it focuses on the pain of those left behind. Often people don't realise how much their lives mean to others. Please, if you yourself feel this way, reach out to loved ones, to professionals, or dial 988, the mental health hotline. Someone out there would be devastated without you. You belong in the world, and things do get better. We just sometimes have to find the beauty in life, in the world, in others--and in ourselves.
