Been here before
Been here before couldn't say I liked it
Do I start writing all this down?
Just let me plug you into my world
Can't you help me be uncrazy?
Name this for me, heat the cold air
Take the chill off of my life
And if I could I'd turn my eyes
To look inside to see what's comin'
It comes alive
And I die a little more
It comes alive
Each momnent here I die a little more
Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away
I'm frantic in your soothing arms
I can not sleep in this down filled world
I've found safety in this loneliness
But I cannot stand it anymore
Cross my heart and hope not to die
Swallow evil, ride the sky
Lose myself in a crowded room
You fool, you fool, it will be here soon
It comes alive
And I die a little more
It comes alive
Each moment here I die a little more
Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Treats me this way
And I wait for this train
Toes over the line
And then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away
Get the fuck out of here
I just wanna get the fuck away from me
I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate
It hate it all, why? Why? Why me?
I cannot sleep wth a head like this
I wanna cry, I wanna scream
I rage, I glaze, I hurt, I hate
I wanna hate it all away

I think this song will allways remind me of my time at uni, stuck in my room, hating everything and everyone outside of those walls, but wishing I had someone to take away the sinking emptiness that sometimes gripped me. That feeling where it seems your chest is caving in from the inside, as if you are deflating. I felt like the more I let anger and jealousy toward the world in general consume me, the more I seemed to be turning into a monster. It scared me immensely that I felt as despicable as those I hated. I felt like I was waiting for me to do something I'd regret... Thankfully I strive to hold those sentiments back, and try to accept my lot and not blame others for it, but at the time I felt like I was waiting for a monster to be born from my own darkness. Thankfully I think I'm too inhibited to try to hurt anyone, and I'm no longer slipping. Now I just feel emptiness, which is what most of the songs I've picked seem to represent... Thanksfully this one is from desperation that has mostly passed. For that I am truly grateful.
