Running over the same old ground
Alternative rock
Alternative rock is a style of rock music that emerged from the independent music underground of the 1980s and became widely popular in the 1990s. In this instance, the word “alternative” refers to the genre’s distinction from mainstream rock music.
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you’re falling anyway
And you know I see right through you
‘Cause the world gets in your way
What’s the point in all this screaming
You’re not listening anyway
When I say you sucked my brain out
In 2015, I saw Ani DIfranco at Emo’s. I have been listening to her since high school tore me apart. She has saved me time and time again.
The first song I had ever heard was “My IQ” and the second was “Untouchable Face”
Who am I?
Somebody, somebody just tell me that much
You tell them, that’s just my battle scar
Confusion is nothing new
In other news, did you know that Sinéad O’Connor hates white people now? I didn’t read the article, because I was afraid I would join her..
Broken, bruised, forgotten sore
Today when I accidently googled 512, I came across this song.
I felt like I needed a little Lamb of God on my site. I couldn’t tell you what the hell they are saying but I am sure it’s good.
When I was younger, I used to go to every Kittie show possible. I must have seen them 10 to 20 times. I ran a website called KittieIzGod.com based off the name of their first demo tape. It was called Sex Iz Hell. I realize that doesn’t really translate but I was like 15 years old.
There used to be a good Sweeny Todd version of Somewhat Damaged on YouTube but I couldn’t find it today. This will have to do.
On a bed of nails, I’ll wait
As I go to type some nonsense, this song plays in the back of my mind but I can’t quite recognize it. I am not sure what I finally typed in to find it, but I am glad that I did.
You’re falling out of reach
Defying gravity, yeah
And then I took it from there –
And if I don’t make it known that
I’ve loved you all along
And since I have watched The Craft on VHS and DVD over 1,000 times, I will include this favorite.
I know you didn’t bring me out here to drown
I’ve been having a really hard time lately. Its just been constant anxiety but I get through. Today, I found out that my mom is in jail again for ‘simple assault’ for the 3rd fucking time. I know that is not good but I can only hope that she gets the help that she needs.
On a completely unrelated note, my brother was singing to this song today and I fell in love with it. Now I am back to what I would consider imaginary issues that are nearly non existent at this point.
Now he is playing a song that I have seen send people into a PTSD breakdown.
Since I fear death for everyone around me so badly lately, just hearing him sing it brings tears to my eyes and a deep pain in my heart. My mother has suffered from alcoholism my entire life and all of my siblings have suffered from it in one way or another. I may not have a problem with drinking too much but I do have deep seeded issues with alcoholics.
His play list is getting to sad for me and leaving me crying… The only songs that I know that hurt more are in my brother’s memorial video. I can never hear those songs without difficulty.
