    A song about my grandmother's final days in the throws of Alzheimer's
    Credits: words and music by Jason M. Ryan

    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this about two moths before my grnadmother passed. She once told me that Alzheimer's was the worst thing that could ever happen to her and I can only imagine what she felt like in the early stages when she knew. With that in mind, I wrote the lyrics to the music already in progress.

    Lyrics
    My flight is no darker
    Than that of a raven's wing
    And my voice stays choked and muddled
    Whenever I try to sing
    Overpowered by thunder clouds
    As the storm sets in
    No matter I will endure
    With all of my strength within

    A flash of lightning
    Is all I have to see
    No matter I've been walking blindly
    Since 1993
    I'm a riddler with a thousand qustions
    A Sage without a clue
    All wrapped up in this ancient mind
    So violent - a typhoon

    (chorus)
    Why go out in the rain
    when I could just stay here in my room?
    I still alive
    But I just fear all of this unknow
    My eyes are open
    To remember all that I see
    But my secretary is on holiday
    And I can't remember a thing

    I've tried to reference
    everything in my life - every turn
    But every page I turn to
    Would so quickly burn
    My story is so incomplete
    It's one I would love read
    But there is nothing to my life anymore
    But strangers and my bed

    Everybody is just so silent,
    motionless and staring
    Is it my hair?
    Or the clothes i am wearing?

    Chorus x2
