Lyrics
Been so long since it felt easy
Been too long since anyone could reach me
It's slipping away
Don’t let me disappear
I am broken but we are whole
Like a train down the track days over me roll
So tired of hurting
Don’t let me disappear
We’re too young to regret so much
We’re too scorned to ever trust It’s coming apart
Don’t let me disappear
I’m just trying to catch up to myself
While leaving myself behind
And while the world spins
We hang off the side
The lights are bright and this place is closing
I can’t go home and face this morning
Just keep me still
Don’t let me disappear
Been so long since it was easy
Been so long since anyone could reach me
It’s slipping away
Don’t let me disappear

In high tide or low tide, Ben is by your side!

Man... I have missed you Ben. The world could really use a heavy dose of what you give through music right now. I’m reminded of a quote of yours from way back when I first discovered your songs, I’d like to share it here: “Music is the last true voice of the human spirit. It can go beyond language, beyond age, and beyond color straight to the mind and heart of all people.” My sister dropped Live from Mars on me when I was about 15. It made me pick up a guitar. I’m 36 now, and I’ve never stopped playing. I’ve been to every PERTH Australia performance of yours. I’d really like you to know you were the sole spark of influence I needed back then to tap into my creative mind. I’ve kept it with me ever since. And I’m thankful... because music has always been there for me to play, create, mimic, be inspired, or inspire others. It has never let me down. When it’s just me and a guitar, no matter what I’m feeling I can transpose that feeling into music. I owe you credit as the catalyst for this Ben.

Man, your story is mine too. i'm 35, discovered him at 16 with live from Mars, started to learn guitar and still playing now.. he opened a whole new world to me, inspired me in every moments of my life... Good to share similar feelings while listenning this new song, even thoug being thousands of miles away. i'm French and based now in reland.;take care, mate.

The way Ben writes inspired me to play and write as well. Music is now how I make a living. These amazing songwriters who are willing to bare their soul help us all through tough moments. Here I am again leaning on a Ben Harper song for some feeling of connection that someone understands the emotions that are passing through me.

@loxibillus 4 жыл бұрын

this term "underrated" is used all the time, it´s an inflation. Why? Who is underrating artists of his kind? When is such an artist not underrated? When he is known by everyone, playing in huge venues, selling billions of records? Do you want this? Ben Harper is not underrated. Neither by his listeners nor by the journalists or music industry. He is having constant success and has a large variety of styles and is still loved by all of his fans. Noone is underrating Ben Harper.

I discovered Ben years ago, when I went to see Pearl Jam in San Jose, during their boycotting of Ticket Master era. Ben opened for them. From that moment on, I knew I was witnessing greatness. As far as I'm concerned, he is in the top 3 all time greatest musicians ♡
