Blacktop Mojo have premiered a new song titled “Watch Me Drown.” This track is from the band’s new EP “Static,” which will be released on May 29.
Matt James commented:
“This song was written at a mental valley in my life. I was in my head all the time. I was angry. I was depressed. I felt like I was obviously down in the dumps and couldn’t understand why no one could see that I was in pain. The thing is though through that whole time, I never reached out for help. I bottled up those feelings and became angrier and angrier at everyone else for not being able to read my mind. I was a nightmare to be around. Eventually it got to a breaking point.
Luckily I live in a house with my band, who are around me day in and day out, who eventually said something to me (probably along the lines of ‘Hey you’re being a dick all the time lately. What the hell is going on, dude?’)
Never be afraid or ashamed to reach out to those around you, or to a professional if you’re having trouble. We all need help sometimes. You might think you can eat an entire pizza by yourself, but if you do, you’ll most likely get sick. Always share that pizza.”
