This song by Skynd is about Conrad Henri Roy III was an American man who died by suicide at the age of 18. His girlfriend, 17-year-old Michelle Carter, had encouraged him in text messages to kill himself. As a survivor of an attempted CO2 exit using the same method as Conrad I find this song extremely relatable. The reason for posting this now is that I'm going to drag myself out of the house and go and see the band tonight which should hopefully be a pleasant distraction.

Think this song is compiled of only her texts to him...

Falling In Reverse ft Jelly Roll-All My Life :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









Yeah, I've been high and low
I've been sober, I've been faded
Searching for my love in all the wrong places
Word up on the streets is I got a bad reputation
Yeah, I may have drew blood, but that was true love

Get a stroke of bad luck everywhere I look
Every time I go right, everything goes wrong
And I self-destruct when I'm close to love
So someone save my soul, because

All my life I've fucked up and I can't deny
I'm doing my best to get it together-gether-gether (Woohoo)
If I told you once, I told you a million times
I just can't live like this forever-ever-ever (Woohoo)
Jelly Roll

Yeah, I've been up and down
I've been through hell and back
I've had my share of drama
Baby, please cut me some slack
I know you wanna get through to me
But I am my worst enemy, yeah
I may have drew blood, but that was true love

Get a stroke of bad luck everywhere I look
Every time I go right, everything goes wrong
And I self-destruct when I'm close to love
Better buckle down, giddy-up, here we go, because

All my life I've fucked up and I can't deny
I'm doing my best to get it together-gether-gether (Woohoo)
If I told you once, I told you a million times
I just can't live like this forever-ever-ever (Woohoo)

Forever-ever-ever (Woohoo)

Go
Giddy-up
Yee-haw

All my life I've fucked up and I can't deny
I'm doing my best to get it together-together-together (Woohoo)
If I told you once, I told you a million times
I just can't live like this forever-ever-ever (Woohoo)
I can't live like this forever

All my life I've fucked up and I can't deny
I'm doing my best to get it together-gether-gether (Woohoo)
I just can't live like this forever
I told you once, I told you a million times
I just can't live like this forever-ever-ever (Woohoo)

Man, I'll listen to just about anything, but there are always some that stand out. One band that I've been loving recently is called Good Kid, their sound is amazing. They have these bubbly, upbeat guitar parts with honestly depressing lyrics, as well as a song about being lost in an infinite liminal space of Premier Inns, so that's cool.

BAD OMENS x HEALTH x SWARM - "The Drain"
"Old friends
Same as enemies
I'm killing myself again"
"We're bored when we're sober again
But miserable when we're not"
"I can't be saved
Reaching for the life we threw away
Watching as it circles in the drain
With everything I loved, that's gone to waste
With everything I was but couldn't change"

Have you ever wondered what... Japanese jazz sounds like?

Me neither, but I watched the anime "Sing a Bit of Harmony" in the past and I love its song "Lead Your Partner" by Tao Tsuchiya!
I've been listening to it almost every day for almost 8 months.

Since it's pride month, I thought I would post a song for the LGBTQ community. Did I miss any letters? 😉😁

Heather Small-Proud :heart:











I look into the window of my mindI I
Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind

I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I'm on my way, can't stop me now
And you can do the same, yeah

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
Hmm-mm
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel prouder?

Still so many answers I don't know
(There are so many answers)
Realize that to question is how we'll grow
(To question is to grow)

So I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I'm on my way, can't stop me now
You can do the same, yeah

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
Hmm-mm, hmm
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?

Yeah
We need a change, yeah
Do it today, yeah
I can feel my spirit rising
Change, yeah, we need a change, yeah
So do it today, yeah
'Cause I can see a clear horizon

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
To make you feel proud, yeah
Let me hear ya, let me hear ya, let me hear ya
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause you could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?

What have you done today to make you feel proud?
Yeah, let me hear ya
What have you done today? What have you done today?
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
Oh yeah, yeah
You could be so many people
Just make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?

Just because I like it.

I was supposed to add this song here!

It's very important to me and it carries a certain emotional burden for me.

***

It sounded from loudspeakers installed in the faculty building of my university when I was just starting my studies.

This was only the second time I appeared in this building.

From the very beginning of my studies, I was alone.

I was surrounded by people with whom I was studying - excited, making new friends, dreaming of taking advantage of all professional, academic, hobby and social opportunities offered by studies.

***

And I was alone.

Depressed that I'm different and can't be like them.

Emotionally broken, anxious, crushed by the sheer weight of my responsibilities.

***

And this entire situation was accompanied by this song...

That's a really big deal. You have an amazing connection to this song. I just happen to really like it and have for a very long time.

I have excellent coping mechanisms. I can always suppress my suffering. I never cry.

But when my mother finally died of cancer after months of extreme suffering and many weeks of dying in agony, my coping mechanisms were put to the hardest test yet.

***

They passed the exam. I didn't cry.

But to suppress my suffering, I had to help my coping mechanisms a lot. Be constantly occupied with the stupidest possible activity, such as playing on the computer.

But that wouldn't be enough.

***

I hate listening to music in the background for other activities. I listen to a piece of music just like I read a book or watch a movie - that is, I actually only focus on getting to know the piece.

But then I turned on one of the Internet radios to accompany me in the game, and after a dozen or so minutes they broadcast this song.

***

I don't like this type of music and I don't appreciate it. But there was something so addictive and fascinating about this song that it was perfect for distracting me.

In the first week after my mother died, I must have listened to it in the background at least a few hundred times.

I still don't appreciate it, but I appreciate that it helped me get through that time easier.

Slipknot-Snuff :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:








Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence, and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again

So, if you love me, let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I can't destroy what isn't there
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
Ooh, my smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your light (without your light)
But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight

So, save your breath, I will not hear
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
Ooh, my own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go

Oh, oh

So, break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away, you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
Ooh, my love was punished long ago
If you still care, don't ever let me know
If you still care, don't ever let me know
