If I lived in the country I like to think I wouldn't want to get blasted in such a downward oriented disaster-spiral trajectory but I can't blame not living in a certain environment to my inability to do what is good for me and others

 
Alejandro Escovedo [2008] - Sister Lost Soul



I long to lay down beside you
Feel your breath in my ear
Your not the first or last I've lied to
I'm lying to myself right now your still here

Who knows? Maybe you need more frequent excursions to be around green pastures/woodland/etc, also for your well being - to ease the pain; we are dynamic; not static. 💜

Lies are important insights to personal truths & limits of integrity, security, trust and ensuing, freedom.😉❤️

That song really takes me back, the first time I ever heard it I was in this one dive bar near my house that I’d sometimes walk to. I was probably at the lowest point of my whole life, severely depressed & as into hard drugs as I’ve ever been. I really liked that song though, seem to fit the ambiance as neon lights flashed across the bar top and nameless people came in and out of the bar seemingly in a blur in front of my thousand yard stare lol

I have mixed feelings about the song cuz I always associate it with a difficult time period in my life but it is a good song though
 
I ld like to hear your thoughts about this song but to me it perfectly describes that "no man s land" when the physical w-d ends and the real battle begin (PAWS, cravings, depression, anhedonia etc): especially these parts of the lyrics:

I just zoned out, you were telling me about your dreams
No one cares about your dreams, it's one of those days
I can't even watch TV, I'm tryna fill a void in me
The silence kills me, it's like nothing thrills me
Doctor, please just pill me, so I can feel something

Everything is boring
Wake up and I'm snoring
I think I could die right here, right now
Everything is boring
That or just annoying
I swear I'm just watching life go down [...]
I just zoned out, I was thinking about girls supporting other girls
Then, I woke up in a meeting with a bunch of random dudes
Telling me what I should do
The notion kills me, it's like nothing thrills me
Doctor, please just pill me, so I can feel something....

as much as I hate mainstream stuff, I heard this on the radio, and the lyrics certainly are about addiction, made me think of my own alcoholism



Telling myself I won't go there
Oh, but I know that I won't care
Tryna wash away all the blood I've spilt
This lust is a burden that we both share
Two sinners can't atone from a lone prayer
Souls tied, intertwined by our pride and guilt
There's darkness in the distance
From the way that I've been livin'
But I know I can't resist it
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Tellin' myself it's the last time
Can you spare any mercy that you might find
If I'm down on my knees again?
Deep down, way down, Lord, I try
Try to follow your light, but it's night time
Please, don't leave me in the end
There's darkness in the distance
I'm beggin' for forgiveness (ooh)
But I know I might resist it, oh
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
