Songs
I listen to a lot of music. Most of the time I find myself trying to relate to the feelings or things in the songs I listen too. I have been listening to music a bunch here lately and have found myself and my situations relating to the messages. I am at a very confused junction in my life. I have to learn to trust someone I know I probably shouldn’t trust and let them do things to intentionally hurt me for a chance at a decent relationship later. I was listening to a song just a few minutes ago and it really struck home. Not like the other songs that I can only partially relate to or a few lines of them i think ‘oh yeah that’s me!’. Nope this one stuck. Every single word.
If I had a dime for every time you walked away,
I could afford to not give a shit
and buy a drink and drown the day
But your pockets, they are empty,
yeah, and mine are times two
So why not make an about-face,
and accept the love I send to you?
You’re never gonna be content if you don’t try,
try to see outside your line.
There you go, you did it again!
You act as if there’s blinders on your eyes.
Should I apologize if what I say burns your ears and stains
your eyes?!
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you’ll see we exist as well!
Like a bottle with the cork stuck,
your true ingredients trapped inside.
Through the cloudy glass we catch a glimpse of you,
I guess the hard shell represents your pride.
Oh, if only it could be different
we could uncover the you, you deny.
Between two, a small discrepancy,
one complicates and one simplifies.
TAKE THOSE FUCKING BLINDERS OFF YOUR EYES!!
So if I had a dime for every time you walked away,
you could bet your bottom dollar that
I’d be filthy rich by noon today
