EMPLOYED TO SERVE today release their brand new single and video ‘Harsh Truth’.
Watch the video HERE or below.
A bit about the meaning behind the song from vocalist Justine Jones: “In 2017, 5,821 suicides were registered in the UK and is the second leading cause of death among 15-29 year olds. These statistics are staggering, but all is not lost as there has been a decline in attempts thanks to the work of charities such as Samaritans. Lyrically, ‘Harsh Truth’ is an anthem for the ill-represented masses who are struggling behind the veil of positive social media posts. The world is a better place with you in it, so stay alive and seek help as it’s always there.” Find help here: https://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/
