Matt Walden - Sthafm

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Yet another night and I can't sleep
Keep replaying the time that I said I'd leave
And all these memories I get to keep
I think I need a drink or maybe five (Yeah, only five)
Did you really think I wouldn't find out
Doesn't matter that I lived on a couch
Just cause we're far away, doesn't make what you did okay
Never had a proper reason to doubt you
I remember you saying we could make this work, baby
But it was just for the money

{Pre-Chorus}
Well I really got into thinking
Maybe it's cause I'm drinking
Woah oh

{Chorus}
Baby you don't understand how happy I am
Now that you're away from me
All of that time I was blind but now I'm happy to find
Without you, I can finally breathe
So stay the hell away from me
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
Nah nah

{Verse 2}
I didn't think that it was right
We never had a fight
Six months of you lying to me
Six months of no honesty
What happened to the good people in this world
Only cared about herself, how'd I love that girl
How'd I love that girl ohh

{Pre-Chorus}
Well I really got into thinking
This time I know it's cause I'm drinking
Well I really got into thinking
This time I know it's cause I'm drinking

{Chorus}
Baby you don't understand how happy I am
Now that you're away from me
All of that time I was blind but now I'm happy to find
Without you, I can finally breathe
Baby you don't understand how happy I am
Now that you're away from me
All of that time I was blind but now I'm happy to find
Without you, I can finally breathe (oh)
Without you, I can finally see
Without you, I can finally breathe
So stay the hell away from me

{Outro}
So stay the hell away from me
Away from me x6
So stay the hell away from me
Away from me x6
So stay the hell away from me
Away from me x6
So stay the hell away from me
Away from me x6
So stay the hell away from me

Biography

edit bio

Music has always been my escape.

At the age of 15, I started writing songs in my room stemming from heartbreak and hormones. Posting originals and quick covers on YouTube of artists such as The Maine , All Time Low, & Ed Sheeran.

Come 2014, I moved out of the house and resided in my hometown of Bradenton, FL. to utilize the recording opportunities via the Del Couch Music Education Foundation. All in the meanwhile, building a small following via Vine (R.I.P.).

In the next few years, things got real.

I quit my job in 2015 to fully dedicate my time to creating music. During this time, some unfortunate events occurred & left me in a ‘homeless’ situation. Living on friends couches and spending each day in the studio working with Raven Chapman to create the ‘Life – EP’ released in 2015.

After that release, I had a bit of a revelation. Music was how I escape from all the rough patches in my life; what if I could help give that same type of escape to other people?

I wrote ‘Breathe.’ in October of 2016 about my dealings with suicide, depression & overall negative thoughts I had. Hoping to spark hope in not only myself but others who may be dealing with things similar to what I went through.

The goal is one thing. Create an escape for others.

Whether the songs are fun, sad, or confused; making each show & track about being someone else’s escape is the ultimate plan.
