Music has ALWAYS been a huge part of my life. I would rather have music playing in the house then the TV on...TV for the most part is a waste of time. There is so much you could be doing instead of just sitting in front of that box for hours on end!
This song Bother in particular by Stone Sour got me through some VERY difficult years recently. The words really describe what my life had turned into. I listened to this song on my iPod everyday as I drove into work for several years. Then this past year I kind of forgot about it and this morning while cleaning up the house my iTouch was on shuffle and it came on...stopped me in my tracks. I just sat and listened to it again, I remembered every line, word for word. I have really made it through a lot and have so much to be thankful for now...so much to look forward to!
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I'll never live down my deceit
