Dierks Bentley Talks Extremely Personal Songs
. Two examples he brings up are "Here On Earth" and "Damn These Dreams." "'Damn These Dreams' will always be a really personal song for me because it's so real," he explains to Radio.com of the autobiographical track, which discusses falling in love with Hank Williams' music and the difficulty Bentley now feels having to leave his family for the road. As for "Here On Earth," he calls it "a really honest song that I think people who have experienced a traumatic loss will connect with. I like that it's different than what I've written." For "Here On Earth," Bentley also threw the expected songwriting structure ("verse, chorus, verse chorus, solo, bridge, chorus�") out the window. He says the track is "written from the gut and the heart." Fans already have had a taste of this personal side of Bentley's songwriting thanks to "I Hold On," his No. 1 single from earlier this year--a track that he says is one of the most personal songs he has ever written.
