- What many consider the best song off the new album, something i'm tempted to agree with. When I first heard it, I was blown away by the honesty and reality presented by the writing. For those wondering, Kerr county is a rural county in Texas where Hayden spent a good deal of recovery/rehab time. It's dedicated to his friend, who recently passed away to a fentanyl overdose.
The first time we tried to record this song (clips of which can be seen in the beginning of this video) Hayden was too fucked up to finish it and so we had to call it off. This is the second go around.
If you want to support real musicianship, raw songwriting and Hayden then here's your chance.

Hayden's line about how selfish it would be if he'd followed his buddy into the grave rings through my brain a lot lately. I was a heroin addict for almost 30 years and after 8 years on Suboxone, I've finally been completely free from opiates for a little over a year. But 5 months ago I was in a horrible car accident in which my best friend/fiance was killed, along with 2 others, including a child. I am having a really hard time understanding how and why I am still here. No one, including me, expected me to survive my addiction, and now this crash... It just feels like a giant mistake that I'm still here and at times like this, I wonder if I actually am still here... Maybe I didn't survive and now I'm a sad ghost wandering around unseen among the living, unaware that I am actually supposed to be dead... I'm sure that sounds crazy... Some days the only thing that keeps me from following him into death are Hayden's mumbled words bouncing around my brain. I'm honestly surprised I haven't used heroin again, especially now. I have to admit I am tempted, mostly as a suicidal impulse more than any belief it will actually help. I had a bad enough habit for a long enough time to be immune to that particular lie... I'm not sure exactly what I am trying to say or why... I guess I figured that some of the people who appreciate Hayden's music might be more likely to understand the heartache of the loss that Im experiencing, and hopefully would spare me the cruel bullshit judgement that I have to endure daily on top of this crushing and very lonely grief. I honestly don't know what to do to get through it. I can't believe 5 months have already passed since the crash. In 12 years, I have never been apart from him for this long, and the passage of time so far makes everything harder, not better. I don't have anyone to talk to about it, so pathetically, I am unloading here in a RUclips comment section, which even annoys me. I guess I will stop my whining and head out in the snow for a late night walk. That's the only thing that even remotely helps right now. Apologies for spreading my self pity among strangers. I guess the relative anonymity is the only way it feels safe to open up at all. My embarrassment is somewhat lessened by my certainty that 99% of people will skip any post as long as this one will likely be, so hopefully this will end up as just another silly note sent into the void. Those can help more than one would think, actually. So, apologies if anyone actually slogged through to this point. I wish I could come up with some hopeful or wise words to end this, but I have nothing right now. I'm just getting through each minute, and barely managing that. For now, that's the absolute best I can do.
Survivor's guilt is rough, you deserve to be alive and to be loved
You are here to spread that message. I know its hard but you must spread you're message of getting clean
It's not a mistake you're still here. 10 months since you wrote this. Hopefully you're still alive and kicking. Keep strong. Those who are still here need each other.
So very sorry for your loss❤you are in my thoughts an prayers tonight. God has plans for you. An he has one for me as well. Lift that spirit. Sending hugs to you right now
Been 11 months....hope your doing well and havnt slipped. If you have there is always someone who's more than willing to help. Just gotta look
Hayden celebrated 90 days clean, with the help of Arlo McKinnley, with us at the VClub in Huntington, WV!!! Keep pushing homie! We NEED you!
That's bad ass. Everything about this comment makes me happy.
HELL YEAH bro. God bless. Salute for what you're doing for our people
If you have this kind of talent you have unbelievable things awaiting you and begging you to live to greet them.
Magic happens at the v-club. I cant wait to get back to a show.
This is powerful man.... and I don’t know Hayden but damn his music has affected and been a part of my life hard. I’m so happy to hear this. Truly. Fucking truly, truly, truly. Keep fighting brother. ALWAYS FORWARD. ALWAYS. FUCKING. FORWARD.
Anyone experienced that withdrawal of being up all night with not wink of sleep, than than the sun comes up again. I can feel the 4 days
I don't know how it is for others, but I just couldn't stop my legs moving, and that was by far the worst part for me. I was on Oxy and fent for 7 years. Had a kid so put myself in my room and suffered. Almost 5 years ago now and I still remember it clearly, you go through a metaphorical death and rebirth. Then the mental battle begins.
Everybody judges this guy because he's an addict. He's a human being first and a great musician.
I am an addict and I definitely judged him because he is an addict. At least scrutinized. If that's any different? My judgements just happen to be positive. Regardless of the stigma, and quite possible negative feedback, he put himself out there honestly and that had to take more courage than I've been able to muster yet. However, the fact that he was able to turn such tragedy and sorrow into something constructive and beautiful. Well damn, he gave my cynical ass hope and inspiration. Two things that have been virtually absent from my life since Christmas of 2015.
Thanks for writing your feelings out loud and for showing that all hope is not lost on humanity. Stay well, and grow stronger daily.
Do people not realize how common this is in the music industry? Most just hide it. I’m glad he’s open and honest about his continued struggle and pray he’s able to defeat it.
"And how selfish it would have been for me to follow suit"
I love that you heard that, I heard it and felt it.
The thing about loving real music: The good feels are really good and The sad feels are just as equally sad.
Crying like a baby at the moment.
Any of you fighting their demons, even in your darkest hour, when it seems nobody cares or that everyone is against you. Please know that is false. I am still rooting for you. I still believe in you. We can and we do, recover.
@@brianstotler9846 I'm fighting the battle, too...
@@brianstotler9846 I cant seem to get 24 hours without a certain substance... dope sick and work dont mix at all..so I convince myself everyday that its necessary...its literally killing me
@@innerselfspark1384 right there with ya man, it's a harsh reality for a lot of us!
Hayden-
Maybe one day you’ll stop falling on the needle and finally just let it rest on top of your records- probably not
From one junkie musician to another -
Thank you for the blood cold sweats and tears-
If you’re ever in Orange County and need somewhere to crash or want to record. Hit me up. We have a ton of sober musicians out here that used to be halfway faced down on deaths doorstep just trying to slowly back away from the hell they called home.
Stay up my friend-
Condolences to your brother-
Finally to gems on VHS- thank you for everything you do. You’ve put me in some dark places and gotten me out. You might not read any of these but it’s therapeutic enough to be able to offer up a thank you.

A. Janse beautifully said
Amen brother amen
@@TheMnimatt yes!
Probably not? Pretty messed up.
Anthony reads them.
He may not have responded to this, but I bet he read it.
Side note, coming from an ex junkie, why add the "probably not" to your comment? I'd say that you are probably an asshole for that, but I am probably wrong. You probably are a great guy who means well.
This ain't my first time hearing this song, but that little blurb in the beginning just made this song resonate with me so much more. Beautiful.
This is literally the best damn channel on RUclips and it gives me hope for music in America..
This song could also be the dope sick blues for any county in Kentucky near me.
This could be the dopesick blues for any place in the world friend. I’m in western Canada (at the moment) and I got the dopesick blues through and through. Working my way through suboxone treatment right now and trying to stave off dope sickness as we speak.
@@DIRTYSANCHEZ1995 6 years sober from dope here. Hang in there. There is light at the end of the tunnel. *hugs*
Or Chicago, where its got many of us by the throat
Fucking aye man
I feel you bro
The Hill Country Devil is really a true gem. Ever since "Glory" appeared, I was hooked. Thanks.
God damn, Hayden...the ability you have to translate pain into something meaningful and beautiful, which this absolutely is, isn't something to be taken lightly. Thank you, for creating and sharing this as a fan of your music I'm grateful and happy to have seen this come up on my feed today. After listening to the intro and the song...just as a fellow human being, I'm just happy you're here with us. I appreciate and thank you for that as well, hanging on when it's easy to lay down, well I know that ain't always easy. I hope that moment of clarity you touched on having here with this song and Josh's death also continues to take on different meanings to you with time, as you say the song itself has. It took me hitting rock bottom to know which way I had to go to in order to climb out of a hole I once found myself in, but I did and I'm still climbing. Keep climbing, my friend. And may you RIP Josh Allen.
This should have millions of views, millions of fans.
I hope Hayden gets the recognition that he deserves. Glory is one of the best songs I have ever heard. By anybody. Every Lost Dog Street Band show I have seen, Ben Tod seems to always mention Hayden whether he plays Haydens Lament or not. This Gems on VHS series is the most authentic music I have heard in years and I am grateful.
Rats get fat is my personal favorite. I really like his old song belly ache too.
The depth of this man's poetry is immeasurable.
Godspeed Brother , keep moving forward and sharing your Soul .
Man, he can write a sad song like no other. I feel like I have to prepare myself whenever a new one shows up. But they're always so beautifully written I keep coming back.
Hayden, I love your music. It's real. Remember to look us up in the slow country of south Carolina. U will always have a free place to stay. God bless. Praying for your recovery. Joyce
Awesome song, glad you could record this. I love and have loved everything you’ve done. Hope your doing well sorry for your loss.
Very appropriate for me right now. I just lost my best friend of 29 years to that fentanyl shit.
R.I.P. Dirty, I miss you more than you'll ever know friend.
Many thanks to Anthony and all the beautiful people he introduces us to ❤
God damnit. You've got me crying at work now

Thanks for everything Anthony. I love all y'all.
Beautiful song. You can feel the hurt in his voice makes me miss my fallen friends rip Josh 💔
So much pain, thank you for sharing it in such an emotional creative way..you make my heart wrench Hayden.
Hope you can get and stay clean brother. If you don't it will be one of the biggest wastes of talent I believe we will ever witness. Praying for you young man.
So beautiful. Here’s my attempt at the lyrics:
It’s my fourth day awake
Oh and Dallas is behind us but I’ll pay for that mistake
And being swallowed by the shadow of these
Picture postcards on the dresser
Reflect the flashing from the street
As the hounds start-a-catching up to me
In a cloak of sheets and the cold concrete
I tremble for defeat
And that golden script from my back pocket
Ain’t worth a god damn thing
‘Cause the judge won’t grant me bail
And what’s another month in jail...
Well you sleep well wrapped in somone else’s arms
And no matter, what I choose
Oh I’m forced to pay my dues
Dream of you, in the Kerr County dopesick blues
It’s my fourth day awake
And the nights are getting longer yet I flinch when morning breaks
And I wonder if you long for me at all
As I trace the cracking stone stretching trails across these walls
And I hope that the whole damn thing will fall
And the sky will bruise in blinding hues
And if god is good it’ll fall down too
And the world will turn as the idols burn
With steadfast follow through
But the ledger spells my name
And that stone won’t ever break
So onward now, through the never ending ache...
And no matter what I choose
Oh I’m forced to pay my dues
Dream of you, in the Kerr County dopesick blues
It's my fourth day awake
Dallas is behind us, but I'll pay for that mistake
And be swallowed by the shadow of the east
Picture postcards on the dresser reflect the flashing from the street
As the hounds start a-catching up to me
In a cloak of sheets on the cold concrete
I tremble before defeat
And that golden script from my back pocket
Aint worth a God damn thing
'Cause the judge won't grant me bail, what's another month in jail
While you sleep well wrapped in someone else's arms
No matter what I choose
I'm forced to pay my dues
And dream of you in the Kerr county dopesick blues
It's my fourth day awake
And the nights are getting longer yet I flinch when morning breaks
I wonder if you long for me at all
As I trace the cracking stone that's stretching trails across these walls
And I hope that the whole damn thing will fall
And the sky will bruise in blinding hues
if god is good it'll fall down too
And the world will turn as the idols burn
with steadfast follow through
But the ledger spells my name and that stone won't ever break
So onward now through the never ending ache
No matter what I choose
I'm forced to pay my dues
And dream of you in the Kerr county dopesick blues

Wow, thanks for the reply, I was almost there! I’m trying to figure it out on guitar, got the picking pattern down but still struggling through the chords/rundowns etc.
This is gonna’ be your year man. Much love and hope to you.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful song with us ❤
@@haydenk8831 I lost the love of my life to fentanyl in 2015. Thank you four sharing your story, I know it will help others, whichever side they're on.
I really can't even believe how absolutely beautiful this man's songs are. His pain must be tremendous, and I wish it weren't so- but he has channeled it into some of the finest art ever to exist
So good! Hayden you’ve made a masterpiece. Be proud my friend, keep up the good work 🇬🇧🇬🇧
I'm here today because of this song, lost so many people I have loved to addictions, as I struggle myself, thank you my friend for your strength it gives me strength my friend
Coming back. Powerful.... truly. Chase, I miss you brother. I’ll see you again. Someday brother, someday.
This mans music takes me right back to the days of when I was a lesser man fighting for a reason to do the right thing. I pray for nothing but peace and prosperity for him and his, God Bless him.
Ive been clean for eight years as of July 14th this year. Back then everyone but one friend and my grandparents had given up on me and their love gave me a reason to invest in my future and fight to become better. In the end despite how bad things get I know I can and will overcome my personal demons, anyone else reading this and is still in that place needs to know your never "That Far Gone". The strength of the human spirit is a most amazing thing.
Beautiful fragile truth... peace & love for your pain. Thank you xo
Even though I've not been thru these specific things.. I'm no stranger to that same ache and the miserable weight it brings. You have a gift. I've been stuck on a couple of your songs for days now. It is rare to find an artist that captures my attention like this. There is no question that you feel every word you've written in these songs. Stay honest and genuine, good sir. It does us all good to hear such flawless music. If you ever find yourself in a low place.. Remember that you have given us all something beautiful to fall to. I look forward to seeing your name more and more. I've been in those cells and felt very much the same, brother. Keep your head up and be strong. Thank you for putting so much of yourself out there for us.. You have an incredible talent and it will resonate with countless others.
Someone explain to me how such tragic and pain ladden music can be so beautiful and uplifting? This man has got something most artists wish or pretend to have. And I feel like it comes so easily for him.
Playing with the chords if anyone knows them already.
Amen. That is the depth of my soul
The comment section here has become a safe haven for addicts to relate and speak to one another. Be there for each other, talk about our lost loved ones.. I love you all man.
Love your honesty man. Thank you for that.
It's uncanny how much this song resonates with my entire life. Lost my best friend to a fent overdose. Lost the love of my life because i relapsed after 9 years clean. And now it's harder to quit than it ever was before. I'm worried I'm riding this right into my grave
Few men will know themselves as much as you know yourself. In the hells of withdrawal, while puking and shitting your heart out, you'll find a beautiful summer in yourself. I believe this to be true with all my heart.
I have been listening to this since it came out. The pure beauty of it still amazes me.
Goddamn the pain in his eyes. Makes me sad for him. Some of the most real music I have had bless my ears in a good long while. Keep up the fight brother!
Im happy to have found his fantastic voice and music not more than 10 minutes ago. I am a fan now and damn the last couple of songs I've heard are magnificent..
We deeply need your music buddy. Hang in there. I'm a mess but I'm magnetized to your music bud. It's beautiful ❤️
Birds of a feather. This songs makes me ache to the core.
Thank you so much for this song in particular but also for the whole channel. I know I'm commenting way after this video was posted but when it was first posted I wasn't aware how incredibly meaningful it would become for me. I just knew it was a great song I could identify with. Since then I have continued fighting the good fight to stay clean, while dealing with friends dying the same way as the friend he mentions and others that haven't died but are lost to drugs at the moment. So many songs on this channel but in particular the Hill Country Devil's music have gotten me thru some of the worst times of fighting to get and stay clean. Sometimes I wouldn't have the fight in me. I would want to start using again. I would get to the point I couldn't think of a reason for staying clean and I would turn on this video. His line about how selfish it would be to follow would give me my reason for staying clean. I cant express my gratitude adequately. How do you tell a stranger thank you for helping you thru a white knuckle night. idk. But thank you. So much.
You may not see this but stay strong my friend , love the tunes keep up the good work 👌❤
We need your music to help heal. Keep singing brother. Keep healing yourself and others.
I can’t get enough of Hayden! Hope he realizes how therapeutic his music is and he finds what’s he needs to win his fight to stay sober. We’re rooting for ya!
i hope he does too. thanks jon
Found this song in treatment in Nashville. “…and how selfish it would have been for me to follow suit” hit me so hard. It all did. I hope Hayden is well and the rest of the album is fantastic, too. ❤️
I. Think. I. Just. Felt. My. Breath. Stop.
Thank you for making this video, for writing music that makes you remember the pain of every nerve ending being exposed and how you wanna die, you wanna live, you wanna feel, you sure as fuck don't wanna feel, and all you can do is think about some way to change the way you feel.
So much pain in the voice and the song. I'm glad I found this on Reddit
Thank-you for you're honest heart. And inspiration for clarifying sobriety just now sir. Thank-you and I hope if you read this, it finds you well.
Im so proud and excited for Hayden and this album ❤
I hope you were able to overcome and defeat that demon we all struggle with and we all fight with everything we have. I'm proud of you and I love your music man.

this man has a pain and honesty in his voice that you only hear when you come across something special. he manages to encapsulate so many emotions in just a few verses. it's a strange kind of feeling he gives the listener.
"i flinch when morning breaks"...
His voice is beautiful!
One of the most amazingly written intros in all of songwriting. ❤
To many years on the road this hits home hard
Finally more stuff with Hayden. Goosebumps. Album is fucking amazing too.
we got a lot more videos with him coming!
Much love beautiful soul❤

Album name?
@@daltonbrennan8242 It's called Nicotine and China White and you can get it from gemsonvhs.com.
This is greatness.
This song really hits home for me. I overdosed on fentanyl and shooting cocaine in 2005 AND in 2007 while on xanax and acid. I was lucky enough to get pushed out of the moving car in front of the ER door both times. Both times, I went straight from the hospital upon release to get more. Totalled my car on fentanyl, caught myself on fire with a cigarette, saw friends OD, gun stuck in my face by a heroin dealer in St. Louis because I refused to shoot in front of him til my crack to mix in with it got there, lied, cheated, stole to/ from family and friends, the worst of all was the pain I put my loved ones through... the innocent victims... the list goes on... all because of dope. I had an epiphany when some friends and family had an intervention. I had won a settlement, bought 45 fentanyl patches, locked myself in my bedroom, and smoked every single one. A friend busted in my room after nobody had heard from me in so many days. My blanket was covered in vomit and burn marks from cigarettes,... and so was I. Everyone that cared about me came over the same day and it just hit me...sobriety. That was in 2008. I'm still here, I have 2 beautiful boys, 7 and 9. They keep me going. It's not always easy when life gets you down. I just think of them and keep my nose to the grindstone. One day at a time.

Benjamin Tod brought me here, fucking beautiful man, truly beautiful and I’m glad I found it.
Well that was powerful.
I feel this soo much cause last year all I wanted was that shit that would send be to go see my dog and all my homies glad you made a song instead
My best friends since the third grade overdosed on a hot shot that he thought was cocaine but was fentanyl well 40% fentanyl anyway. Needless to say his heart stopped before he hit the ground and he is dead. He was dealing pretty serious amounts of drugs in our state and several counties and I think that the person he bought the supposed Coke from was likely competition and they wanted to eliminate him. That was in September of 2019. I remember when he died how many people showed up to his funeral honestly it was incredible there were so many people there. I had asked his parents and wife if it was okay for me to give a speech and I did. I was able to contain my emotion from the time I got the news that he had passed until the moment I finished giving that speech. I miss him a lot I still see his parents often because I grew up a big chunk of my life in his house we called each other brothers as far as I'm concerned we are. I still call his mom mom and his dad dad. After that I would take massive amounts of ecstasy and drink ungodly amounts of alcohol. I was trying to kill myself and it was a nightly thing it wasn't uncommon for me to wake up on his grave during this time. I don't use hard drugs anymore and his daughters doing good she's two now. Sorry if this made any of you reading this uncomfortable so I just felt the need to share this and the song for obvious reasons reminds me a lot of that time in my life reminds me a lot of Aaron. And while reading these other comments on this video I thought that maybe this might be the right circle on the internet to share this with. If you're struggling with addiction or struggling with the death of someone close to you who overdosed, I'm not going to lie to you until you gets easier because so far in my experience it doesn't you just get better at dealing with it. I love you guys.
Thank you
I really enjoy and love this song. I hate the pain you have had to go through but I relate. Several people around my area has od'ed due to fentanyl cut herion. Horse was not my thing, fortunately.
so beautiful. Please don't die.
Damn. Pain and ache is part of getting back to average, it sucks, but it is. Beautiful, heartfelt tune.
BIG thank you to all our Patreon contributors, specifically Richard Harmon, VJ Arizpe and Caleb Crouch for making this possible.

Wonderful
Great song
keep on keepin on. one day at a time.
I don’t know if Hayden ever looks at these comments but I hope he knows how many people are pulling for him. It seems he’s walked a long, tough road. Addiction is a stubborn adversary, but I hope he claims true and lasting victory so the rest of his life can be as long and full as it ought to be. Best of luck, Hayden.
RIP Krista, this song is for you. I hope you made it to heaven ❤️
Happy for him
Nice work
Youre fucking doing great hayden. You are an inspiration to many now.
Love you Josh❤
Long time no see!
All the musical legends are rolling over with a smile on their faces knowing another man has stepped in line to keep the human experience harmonized...
now, tell your demons to take a fucking number and go to the back of the line bc the angels are with you now, there's no need nor room for them anymore...
I'm just so happy this is finally happening for you :)
edit: I had to lay my mother to rest earlier this month and a dear friend of mine is knocking at his grave, so I'm so grateful to have music like this to process the re-realization each dawn brings.
just, thanks...
I've watched this video numerous times the past 3 years during my addiction and my recovery... And I'm saddened I never read the description attached to the video
You and your homie that this song is about is so fucking beautiful and has helped me not do dope. Thank you brother.
This song is Perfect...I dont know if people who haven't been through it understand the brutal honesty or not..
Rob Morris they don’t
He is amazing. This is far from his best work but the unpolished nature of it only emphasises the power of his feeling. One to dwell on.
Can see, feel and hear the passion in this song and your performance.. absolutely gorgeous heartfelt song 💜✌
You can sell 1000000 records but yet never wright a song this good
He always reminds me to be honest as possible while writing songs. And that friends is true inspiration
