About this track

The song moves through coping by construction… patching holes with photos, holding breath until pain feels meaningful, gluing wreckage together just to feel like it still belongs to one person. There’s tension between holding on and letting go. Between reverence for what survived and exhaustion from carrying it all.

Bio:

Jonathan Hadley is a musician and producer whose work explores atmosphere, texture, and emotionally direct songwriting. He is the founder of Abrasive Monologues, an independent artist collective and label, and releases music both under his own name and through collaborative projects within the roster.

Jon Hadley writes music like memories… out of order, half-lit, and sharper than it should be. As the founder of Abrasive Monologues, he builds sonic and narrative spaces where friction is never a flaw… it’s the point. His work moves between music, philosophy, and narrative realism, often circling themes of cost, love, and structural truth. When he’s not writing, he’s architecting systems that let other artists do the same… louder, cleaner, and with more control than the industry ever wanted to give them.

Lyrics

I've been busy getting lost
In the outline
Patching holes with photos
Of the good times
Hold my breath until the
Burn feels relevant
Hold myself with a little
Bit of reverence
 
I hold these fragments in my head
I hold this wreckage in my hands
 
I learned to breathe
With all my fragments
Talking Shit
I learned to breathe
With no clear devil
In the middle
I can see
I learned to breathe
With all my fragments
Talking Shit
I learned to breathe
I learned to breathe
 
I've been painting with
A brush that likes holding on
But I've been trying to learn
The art of letting go
I've been sitting while
The world burns
Writing songs
Gluing wreckage back together
Till I belong
 
I learned to breathe
With all my fragments
Talking Shit
I learned to breathe
With no clear devil
In the middle
I can see
I learned to breathe
With all my fragments
Talking Shit
I learned to breathe
I learned to breathe
 
I learned to breathe
With all my fragments
Talking Shit
I learned to breathe
With no clear devil
In the middle
I can see
I learned to breathe
With all my fragments
Talking Shit
I learned to breathe
I learned to breathe
