How much it hurts
By: Shawn D. Petrie (1-25-2007)

The thoughts of complication make the world feel so deserted
The words I try to speak come out all wrong
At times i have the answers but there quickly lost
And i am only left with more questions, the pain is so unreal

I don’t know why you left me, in the eyes of another man
You must be his angel, once you were mine
I tried so hard to be happy, you kept much pain at bay
But there was too much and it was hard to hold it all inside each day

But you were my wife, i guess you still are
The words we spoke talked of forever
And i still feel that way today
Even though i want to punish you for all you took away

I know now that i have hurt you
I know now the tings that i did wrong
I never knew it at the time, i was immature, confused
But the pain you caused me was intentional, you meant what you said

You left me with so many memories some good some bad
The bad ones make me cry and the good ones remind me
Ill never have those times back again
And that brings on a real intense defeating agony

I wish you could feel how much it hurts
And i wish you could heal how much it hurts
With your presence and an apology would it all be ok
Or would the pain override the loss and would i turn away

It’s Time To Check Out By: Shawn D. Petrie

It’s Time To Check Out
By: Shawn D. Petrie (12-20-2015)

it’s time to check out
the things I don’t know
the I heart I can’t show
the darkness below

it’s time to check out
the eyes that won’t see
the pain that’s in me
for a life that can’t be

it’s time to check out
a heart full of pain
my eyes full of rain
too much hurt in my brain

it’s time to check out
my hands which are shaking
this life which is taking
too long to be taken

it’s time to check out
the pains overwhelming
with these lies I keep telling
myself

that I’ll be ok

I’ll never be ok
so it’s
time to check out

Greed By: Shawn D. Petrie

Greed
By: Shawn D. Petrie (1-12-1995)

What does it mean to be happy?
No one is ever really happy
They always want more and more and more
When will it stop, there is only so much out there

They have taken everything away from me
No I am an empty cavity
With nothing to take, nothing to give
Now I am lifeless, look what you did

Do you not even care how selfish you are
I’ve lived with nothing all of my life
And I’ll have nothing when I die
How can I go on

I don’t know how I even get up in the morning
I can’t stand this hell I feel
I now have forgotten possessions
And opened myself up to depression

And I don’t know how to end this
Because it goes on forever
I will never get any rest
But what does it mean to be happy?

I am a bad example
What does it mean to be pissed off?
The answer lies within my blackened soul
I do not care about anything anymore

Do not even consider that I do

I hate you By: Shawn D. Petrie

I hate you
By: Shawn D. Petrie (10-17-2003)

If I saw you on the street today
Would you talk to me
Would you smile, would you say
You were sorry for the time you spent away

I would look into your eyes
And you would laugh as I would ask
If you ever thought of seeing me again
Silly questions never change

Would I still remember
You caused me so much pain
Would you be able to explain it all away
And make me forget that I hate you

I don’t know who to blame By: Shawn D. Petrie

I don’t know who to blame
By: Shawn D. Petrie (2-20-2006)

I don’t know who to blame
When everything looks ugly
When all i try to gain
Slips slowly through my fingers

It could be anybody
So it must be everybody
I dont know who to blame
When i point the crooked finger
And feel the anger growing
And cry into the flame

I dont know who to blame

Hope By: Shawn D. Petrie

Hope
By: Shawn D. Petrie (9-13-1999)

Why do the things I know I have
Never seem to displace the bad
With a feeling of hope and a chance to win
Standing at the doorway and the line is thin

So why cant I push through
And be only who I can
Realize that I
Am already a man

A feeling I lost
But do not know how
I wish I had what I need right now

But do I really need it
Is this feeling for real
Or is it simply a reaction
To the pain that I still feel

I push and I shove
Until everyone’s gone
And I am left all alone
It’s always the same song

What I need, what I have
Are they one in the same
Is what she has done to me
Really a game

Realizing that people
Will be who they’ll be
And refusing to let them
Twist and change me

The road I am on
Still cant see the end
But I know there is hope
Just around the bend

So tonight I will sleep
Then wake up to a brand new day
Hoping and praying my life will improve
And trying to believe what I hear myself say

Falling By: Shawn D. Petrie

Falling
By: Shawn D. Petrie (5-2-2001)

Pain so thick it runs through me
Like the blood I’ve shed
Shed for all the worthless

And now I am stunned
Blind and falling into this foggy abyss
Of chemical produced reality

Robotic and dead
Dead are the dreams
I thought I would own

Falling through time, standing still
Running away from everyone
That had taken pieces of me

Then struck by the reality of you
Scared at first
Of the startling perfection

This demi-god unreal
But sitting before me
Guitar in hand

Experience formed habbit
Caused me to dismiss you
Another beautiful man

But you wouldn’t let that go
Stubborn to have your chance

Chance given, exposed to you
So real, ripping away my bullshit

Falling for you
Panicking in this spiral of intense beauty
Not wanting the pain again

But you held onto me
Comforted the uneasy feelings

And now you have awakened me
And I cant let you go

I am in heaven here
Always, in your arms

Hating the need By: Shawn D. Petrie

Hating the need
By: Shawn D. Petrie (2-7-2007)

Hating the need
For someone to hold
When its dark, when I’m lonely
When my bed is so cold

Hating the need
For someone to touch
When I find myself shaking
‘cause i need it so much

Hating the need
For someone to call
So quickly I’m hooked
So easily fall

Hating the need
To have someone around
When its empty inside me
And i cant hear a sound

Hating the need
And hoping to learn
Why I’m still so confused
And so easily burned

Hating the need
But seeking the truth
I’m still so afraid
With so much to loose

Hating the need
And wondering why
When i start to feel happy
I still want to cry

A B O U T M E / W E L C O M E T O A U G U S T W I L L D E C A Y . C O M

I have, for as long as I can remember, have had a creative / artistic side that needed to get out. Having experienced many things in my life which caused me to gain a rather different perspective on things than my peers I began to express myself through poetry. In the beginning there were three of us going by the name of Disobedience, we were young, angry (especially me) and determined to make any sort of music we could on that dirt floor in the basement practice area we jammed in.

After some time things just kind of tapered off we got jobs, finished school and kind of moved on with life. However I continued to create and develop my style as a solo artist going first under the name of King9ine. This name was taken up by another band calling themselves King Nine (which I also used this variant too long ago) but just as well I needed to start a new chapter in my life after a period of very tough emotional times which came to a head in August 2013.

I was in a slump, possibly the lowest point in my life and I sat down and wrote a poem called August Will Decay. That is how I felt, that during that terrible month of August I would decay. (My emotional state anyway) And I guess to a certain extent it did. I was forever changed by the events that followed and I have come to realize that I will only ever have this one life to live and with that life I can choose to sit around writing sad poems which would turn into the occasional song or I can really try and put some effort into showing the world who I am, what I am made of, what I have been through, my hopes, thoughts, beliefs, and failures through music which I hope some people can relate to.

I am living currently in this new chapter of my life where I have decided not only will I make this effort to show people my music but I will make it an obsession to achieve. I have been sitting on dozens of song for the last 15 years that I have unearthed and polished up the best I can and I have released some EP’s which showcase some old songs but also some new songs.

I am going to keep making my heart speak through music and this website is just another effort in this chapter in my life to make my voice heard. And while I could never thank the people in my life that have caused me endless pain I can at least say that they have inspired me. Driven me. And pushed me to further succeed beyond, hopefully what I even think is possible.

My albums that are for sale can be purchased
——>HERE<——-

August Will Decay is an honest expression of raw emotion good bad or indifferent we all have emotions I am not afraid to voice mine.
