How to survive grief: World's saddest song

Surviving Grief; Jack Brewer (Saccharine Trust); Pfc. Sandoval, A. Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

"Surviving Grief" (survivinggtrief.org) is a project of love created in the heart of the pandemic.

Once social isolation forced grief communities apart, we migrated to the digital world to keep sane.

The goal of Surviving Grief is to provide a one-stop-shop for grief resources, instead of searching the Web endlessly looking for grief books or organizations that apply for specific forms of grief.

Take a look around, stay a while, and please contact to add any resources options: Find resources HERE

The depths of human misery

LYRICS: "A Human Certainty" (Saccharine Trust) "Don't come in here/ You'll see something ugly/ It's not the kind of thing/ You'd expect from a body/ Don't come in here/ Don't see me this way/ With my knees on rice/ And a prayer for the prey/ My face is heavy/ My mind is clenched/ My eyes are disgusted/ My hands are hot/ My walls are green/ My walls are red/ I only cry wolf/ When all my sheep are dead/ Oh they died/ Oh they're dead/ As dead can be/ Don't come in here I beg of you/ Yes there's love in my heart/ But there's hatred in my thoughts/ Don't believe in me/ Or anything that speaks/ Cause you won't be deceived/ By a human certainty/ My face is heavy/ My mind is clenched/ My eyes are disgusted/ My hands are hot/ My floors are green/ My floors are red/ I only cry wolf/ When all my sheep are dead/ Oh they died/ Oh they're dead/ As dead can be/ Human certainty/ Human certainty/ Human certainty/ Aaarrrgh, aaarrrgh/ I'm okay now/ I'm okay now/ Oh/ Last night I had a dream about you/ And in my dream you were only asleep/ I sat in a chair and watched you/ As you laid there so beautifully/ The still of the night made me lonely/ I wanted to touch you/ I wanted to feel you/ I wanted things to be just like they used to be/ Except I'd keep all my promises/ And then I felt so ashamed/ I was so ashamed/ Until I realized/ We're all guilty of that dream/ And forever I wished you a beautiful sleep."
