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 crushed by the framework
Closing In
Held captive by these feelings
Breathing
So I can feel something reverberate
Screaming
To see if my soul sticks to anything

Waking up on the floor
Higher than I've been before
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
Waking up on the floor
The cut burns more now
Than it did before
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it

I've was crushed by the framework
Closing In
Can't exorcise these demons
Now the day is done
And I always knew this night would come
Fading
When I swore these colors never run

Waking up on the floor
It hurts more now than it did before
Waking up on the floor
It hurts more now than it did before

I got crushed by the frameworks
Closing In
Trapped here with all my best friends
Breathing
So we can feel something reverberate
Choking
On the rot that's piled up on our plate

Waking up on the floor
Higher than I've been before
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
Waking up on the floor
It bleeds more now
Than it did before
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
I don't really wanna care what I feel about it
