Listen to “28”:
“This song means so much to me. I wrote it during a time when I didn’t think I could write…but as always, songwriting proved to be my safety net. Amidst what felt like an inescapable grey cloud, I fell into this comforting blanket of a song that I can now look back on and say was the genesis of my favorite journey thus far. Finding me (:
The hope that you may find some healing/comfort in my music is why I write. I hope you find that in this song and know that the journey to self discovery, love peace, joy — though it may be painful — will be so worth it.” – Ruth B.

“28” Lyrics:
Put you first just like you wanted
Gave you me you took for granted
Now here I am at 28
All my friends I hardly know them
I don’t sing cause you’re still broken
I almost threw it all away
How did we go from movies on Tuesdays
To all our memories packed in a suitcase
Carried the weight for you for far too long
Even though I loved you
You know I had to leave
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
Cause they say time heals all wounds
But your wounds cut so deep
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
It was hard to be there for you
When my dreams kept falling short and
You were the only thing I knew
You were always there when I was falling
You promised me that you were all in
I made you everything and nothing all at once
Cause even though I loved you
You know I had to leave
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
Cause they say time heals all wounds
But your wounds cut so deep
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
Yeah I love you more than I love myself and I hate that there is nobody else
Yeah I love you more than I love myself and I hate that there is nobody
Cause even though I loved you
You know I had to leave
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
Cause they say time heals all wounds
But your wounds cut so deep
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
Even though I loved you
Wish I didn’t have to leave
I still just wanna hold you as you fall asleep
And I hope it all works out and you find everything you need
I guess I had to lose you on the way to finding me
