    16 years ago my uncle was murdered. He was close in age so he was more like my big brother. For my birthday in August my aunt used some of his life insurance to get me a guitar as his final gift to me.
    Terra Naomi posted this song shortly after and it brought me to tears when I heard it. First song I learned to play on a guitar and I played it for so many for years as I slowly spiraled into a drug fueled nightmare.
    Been sober nearly 10 years now but I still come back here from time to time to remember my tios last gift to me.
    I still play this song for my family and my son every chance I get.
    Thank you for sharing this beautiful rendition with us Terra. I'm so grateful for you

    Terra, the way Feeling flows through you when you sing is unmatched and indescribable. It's like you're a musical medium, a Channel to a emotional universe parallel to our own.
    A beautiful few seconds after you stop singing. You, and we, need to simply rest, and absorb what has just happened.

    of course one interpretation is that the song is about using drugs to overcome pain, and to bring one in closer contact with the memory of a lost loved one -- but it could be a reference to any substitute one finds to ease the pain. she sings this song more sincerely than any other artist. she's amazing. truly amazing.

    I'm watching this again today after I don't know how many years.. I still play this song and think of my mother. She passed away 4 years ago and I'm sure my dad felt this before she passed away. He used to take her to the doctors and give her the medication every day. After she passed away we both were broken and more so him. It's all empty now without her. Every time I listen to this song.. I think of my father.. What he was going through every day when she was unwell. This line.. The drugs don't work anymore.. It might mean something else in the song.. But I take the drugs as meds here for my mom and how my father must have felt. He and me.. We're here now.. Feel empty.. We miss her. Its her birthday on 13th May.. Happy birthday mom.. We love you

This song was written about cancer, actually, at least that’s what I was told. I hope you are doing ok today. I’m playing live online in a few hours, if you feel like coming by.
