亲爱的，你不必为了谁而改变，如果要成为更好的人，请为了自己。真正爱你的人会一直爱你，无论怎样的你。——几米

出生美国宾州的Courtney Jaye，求学时期受到嬉皮年代所释放出的独特魅力驱使，对於音乐的文化影响力，开始有著浓厚兴趣，发现从音乐中可以全然感受无拘束的自由感，直到遭受身边挚友过世的打击，让她认真面对创作音乐之课题，藉由实际创作发表，换化内心喜怒哀乐多样情绪。Courtney毕业后，决定展开旅行生涯，一方面感受各地域音乐民情文化，一方面详细写下当时心境转变，为自己的音乐世界画出更为多彩的鲜亮色调。喜爱冲浪的她，不时享受阳光、海浪的洗礼，更在每一个待上不久的地方，留下一道道深刻足迹。Courtney曾经疯狂著迷於地下独立摇滚才女Ani DiFranco毫不跟主流大厂妥协、自由随性发表音乐创作专辑、完全洒脱的酷派性格，然而最具个人特色的外貌造型也让Courtney与之效法，将她一头亮丽长发剃成光头，这时她也慢慢惊觉到，若是没办法诚实做自己，只是跟随别人的影子走，永远不会加宽自己的格局，走出属于自己的味道。 （网络整理）

歌词：
Was it that hard
To give me away
Are you that easily persuaded
By a memory that's faded
Like a card
Left out in the rain
And tears will fall like ink right off the page

Tell me can you sleep at night
Knowing I'm awake
When you turn out the light
Did you think that I was gonna be alright
Kicked out of your life
Now tell me can you sleep at night

Do you think of me
When you're with her
Is she filling all the blanks in
Til the temporary space is empty again
Just like you are
And now you'll have to smile and just pretend

So tell me can you sleep at night
Knowing I'm awake
When you turn out the light
Did you think that I was gona be alright
Pushed out of your life
And tell me can you sleep

But all this time we've wasted
You were all I thought about
And this bitter pill I'm tasting
Well its time to spit it out
Oh no, no, no
