One day I was laying in bed and wondering how time failed to warn me that I will get older. That we all grow older. In my feverish state of nostalgia, I wanted to check in on old buddies from simpler existence. Past lives. That day is today. My old middle school buddy is an incredible musician. I'm ecstatic to see him here.

Prince of Pain. 🖤💔

I've had the unbelievable honor of running into THD during a Lost Dog Street Band show. I shoved up next to him at the bar as he was paying his tab and held my phone open to show the handwritten lyrics to "Glory" and autographed 'Nicotine and China White" frame that he sent to me... then he smiled. Such an awesome artist, and down to earth guy. THD if you see this, thank you again for your music and art, and for sharing it with the world.

Ya don’t get this talent without pain. This is a musician,not an actor singing a song. Congrats man your songs are pulling me threw the end of my years of struggle and pain. Letting the last of all I had held for so long. They pull the last of the depression out, such moving and meaningful...All your lyrics are amazing, thank you for this therapy. I pray for those who understand the lyrics you write ...much love

Nobody conveys the loss that addiction and trauma inflicts upon you does like Hayden--when you have to pick up the shattered pieces of your life while you're trying to figure out how it happened and how to carry on all alone.

I always find myself lost for words after his songs. Such an excellent musician.

I see a flower dress pressed tight against your bones And a handkerchief Wrapped so pretty around your throat Somehow, I’m the one that chokes Ain't it funny how that goes? And there’s a wedding ring Long been discarded without a stone* Above sits circumstance Belly laughing from his throne And I’m in a prison cell of the trash I’ve called my home Just let me go Michigan rose I see a pathway now Cracked brick On rotten land Where Strangers wait their turn To love you better than I can I hear You laughing from where I stand How I wish that I were deaf And there’s a beating heart Keeping time upon your window seal Above a boulevard Of cigarettes and chewed up fingernails And would it be so hard, Enough wind to fill my sails Just let me go Michigan rose The Silence is deafening The Stories slain without a sound The Graves of Endings you refuse to read Torn pages thrown upon the ground A Jagged trial of what Could of been’s of meaningless and nowhere bound And pressed against the dark A strand of silver ribbon glows A warning spreads from wild hearts To tell me what I’ve always known That a broken heart will only be betrayed by hope Just let me go Michigan rose I see your flower dress Pressed tight against your bones And a handkerchief Wrapped so pretty around your throat Somehow, I’m the one it chokes Ain’t it funny how it goes.......

Hats off to you brother, fantastic!

This song gives me hope!😮

So beautiful so tortured.... always otherworldly. One of the deepest artists ive ever listened too.

As cool as it is to find relatively unknown, but incredible artists like Hayden and get that little “exclusivity” factor, the world needs to hear this man. Dude is too talented to put to words.

Gets me in my stomach, I swear.

Love love love Hayden💚💚💚

This song tears me up.

Might be my favorite song right now

Every song without fail tears through my soul.. it's amazing man.. thanks for the music..

Felt the emotions of the lyrics jumping out of the screen on my phone.. glad I came across this tonight on my sleepless night of thinking too much of the small things that don't really matter 🙃 keep pursuing your talent..

It's impossible to listen to his songs just once...there are too many feelings to be had, back to back is never enough time to feel any of his songs.

My favorite song of all time

So good.

I love it, good job Hayden!!!

Goosebumps

My friend introduced me to your music and I'm so thankful that he did. Your music is amazing. I can listen to your songs over and over again. Thank you

Absolutely beautiful and dark, as good as anything I've ever heard and better ♥️

Went and did it again.

If your ever in Florida...we'd love to have ya.

Well that was just good. So much soul.

Love it. Thank you for making today better

Listened for 20 seconds and I liked it

ive been down the same path, I feel the pain in this music . I fucking love this mans music. the worlds needs this man

His voice has a "Tallest Man on Earth" quality to it.

This is true craftsmanship.

The quality of this songwriting is superb

Love this. Stay strong brother. Find your light .

I love you man, you look great. Hope you are treating you better.

brilliant doesn't even begin to cover it. thank you for sharing your talent with us Hayden!

his make my chest hurt

XO is the greatest song I've ever heard....... but this is quite possibly the second best...... and it's close. Damn close. Thank you for your honesty!

Love you hayden hope you're well keep up the great tracks brother

Great voice and songwriting. Kinda reminds me of Tyler childers in some vocal sense with the distortion

What a great picker

Really just unbelievably beautiful man

Absolutely...I just can't...your picking is great and the vocal expression is dynamic to say the least..see you in Detroit..or wherever we cross paths..a broken heart can only be .betrayed by hope

Looking good Hayden hope all is well

Lyrically it starts of brilliant...until the verse that starts with the line “silence is deafening” and then the words became transcendent.

You've been hurt, this much is true

I need more man. Hit us with another please

I’m in a prison cell of trash I call my home ❤

Shit beautifully 😔 😱 sad beautifully sad

If everyone who sees this mans work would merely pass the link we could propel him towards his positive destiny and he could in turn reach down to lift up others. Think about it. Share.

I see so much Johnny Cash at 3:30 man it's unreal

✨💔✨

I have such a man crush on him

how can this have so few views?

Biblical

Hayden to me is like someone put Bob Dylan and Conner Oberst into a blender and added an extra scoop of addiction and brilliance.

#westernaf

Anyone know what kind of guitar that is?

Does anyone know the meaning of the tatoo or the symbol on his cheek.

Please add lyrics

Dude Speak to dylan .....he might accept you
