I’m one of those weirdos who doesn’t even listen to lyrics. I just want the music.

This is how I feel as a sober addict

In My Head
quote:

Day to day, it won't leave
Everytime, I try to speak
It consumes my mind

It consumes my soul
It wants my life it wants complete control
Somebody help me before it's bad
Somebody help me before I end up dead

I'm gonna be a happy idiot
And struggle for the legal tender
Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
To the heart and the soul of the spender
And believe in whatever may lie
In those things that money can buy
Where true love could have been a contender

you really still have struggles thinking about it?

Honestly my only reminders of the past is my daily reminders from dickbreaths on here that don't like my style of shitposting so they mention it daily. Other than that it's been years maybe because I'm so far removed it seems like a completely different life

Pretty much all of "In the Living Years" by Mike and the Mechanics, but especially:

"So don't yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different date
And if you don't give up, and don't give in
You may just be O.K."

and this

"I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
Think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years"

Help Me Make it Through the Night...Kris Kristofferson

Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Layin' soft upon my skin
Like the shadows on the wall

Come and lay down by my side
Till the early mornin' light
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night

I don't care who's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
'Cause tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

I don't care who's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
For tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
I don't want to be alone
Help me make it through the night

Someone - Aaron Lewis

I wasn't perfect, you were patient

I didn't know what you were waiting for

I swear I must've found an angel
Sent from Heaven's door

'Cause someone else would've walked away
Someone else would've never stayed
Sure as hell, someone else would've left me
A long, long time ago, oh-oh

Someone else would've called my bluff
Saying, I ain't even worth their love
No one else could've loved me like you do
Thank God, my someone's you, hmm

Cats In the Cradle- Harry Chapin-

Can hardly make it through that one without crying now that I have kids



In a similar vein, this one's been on my mind a lot...

Time - Pink Floyd

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun
But it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way
But you're older
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation
Is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away, across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells

I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for bullshite pay
So I can sit out here and waste my life away
Drag back home and drown my troubles away.

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is.

Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shite and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond.

I wish politicians would look out for miners
And not just minors on an island somewhere
Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
And the obese milkin' welfare.

Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds
Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds
Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down.

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is.

Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shite and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond.

I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for bullshite pay.

I tried to pray, but I didn't know what to say
So I just mumbled some names
I said, "I hope they're okay," then "amen"
They were the names of my family and friends
Oh, the planet's so lonely and the planet's so cold
And if I'm so lucky, I'll die when I'm old
I pray no disaster, no fire, no rain
And I pray that no devil gets inside my brain
As the world does its twirl ’tween the moon and the sun
Casting clock shadows beyond everyone
And the hours devour us
As I stare out my window, as I ride this bus
And man, it goes fast, and man, what a blur
But I’d ride it the same, oh, just as it were
It's that feeling in my stomach when the light was low
And I’d get warm in my chest when my heart would slow
And that feeling in my head when that music played
Get dizzy in my soul from the glad song they sang
What a dream to have ever felt the air so warm
What a dream to have even ever been born

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Don’t Fear the Reaper

All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are

But seriously, this is the truest song ever written..

Luckiest Man by The Wood Brothers

My whole saturday and sunday too
I was thinking about ways not to lose
I lay down my weapons is what I've done
Too late to hide, feet too soft to run
But people say I'm the luckiest man
Yeah they say

Running is useless and fighting is foolish
You're not gonna win but still you're the luckiest man you're up against
And too many horses and mysterious forces
What you don't know is you are the luckiest man
You're the luckiest man

I done talked to the devil when he calls my name
But sometimes when I'm losing it all seems the same
And when I fall I'm back up again
Just to slip on the same mistakes and slide right back in
But people say I'm the luckiest man
Yeah they say

Running is useless and fighting is foolish
You're not gonna win but still you're the luckiest man you're up against
And too many horses and mysterious forces
What you don't know is you are the luckiest man
You're the luckiest man

Try to keep my faith and keep my mind
Hate to lose either one when the whip cracks behind
And I can't help but mourning just a little each night
People say everything is gonna be alright
They say I'm the luckiest man
Yeah they say

That running is useless and fighting is foolish
You're not gonna win but still you're the luckiest man you're up against
And too many horses and mysterious forces
What you don't know is you are the luckiest man
You're the luckiest man
You're the luckiest man
