Two days ago I released a video of this song exclusively on steemit, but thought I'd get it on here on @Dsound as well.
I sang this for 
"This song comes from many different places. It starts with friends I know who struggle with mental illness, and the distance between us that I just can’t understand. It's from being completely intimidated by the power, beauty, and sheer size of natural objects, particularly the ocean. It comes from the both the fear and peace of the thought of death. It's from seeing where Mother Teresa lived and worked in Calcutta, India. It comes from Soren Kierkegaard’s “Fear and Trembling”, and still not being able to understand certain stories that I’ve been told I should understand. And it's from not being able to control the thoughts in my own head, and wondering if I’m much more like my friends than I realize."
Lyrics:
I need something to change deep inside of you
I know every human is broken into two
And some mountains will kill you
And oceans are just so big, and deserts will run you dry
When the mind's in a million places
There's distance with all familiar faces
And if this ever changes you'll be the first to know
When the mind gets twisted around
Down is up and up is down
And every thought is a burden it's not as easy as
Letting it go
And this is what scares me, the thought to disappear
Is the only thought that seems a little more clear
Do we slip into heaven, or slide into hell
Or go back to the way it was before
When the mind's in a million places
There's distance with all familiar faces
And if this ever changes you'll be the first to know
When the mind starts drifting away
Day is night and night is day
Every thought is a burden it's not as easy as
Letting it go
I heard mother Teresa seemed to lose her way
And yet she lived as if all were okay
Oh father Abraham I still can't understand
If you would have killed your own
When the mind's in a million places
There's distance with all familiar faces
And if this ever changes you'll be the first to know
When the mind gets twisted around
Down is up and up is down
And every thought is a burden it's not as easy as
Letting it go
I need something to change deep inside of you
I know every human is broken into two
Thanks for your support everyone, and to @Dsound for this platform.
