Personally, this song perfectly describes my current mood. I'm in the last stages of recovery from 4 years of severe depression/insecurity.
I was finally able to focus and feel confident in myself, and deal with my problems as opposed to letting them control me (if only on a sub-conscious level). I honestly, purely laughed for the first time in over a year a few weeks ago. It felt absolutely awesome. :)
In any case, these lyrics literally describe my situation.
"I've got a wound that doesn't heal."
The cause of my depression is still around.
"My wound goes deeper than the skin,
There's no hiding it,
So I'm not trying it "
I was always taught to hide weaknesses and problems, to keep them private. Now, while I don't advertise them, I no longer intentionally hide them either.
"My hope runs underneath it all,
The day that I'll be home,"
I've known the entire time that I had a fixable problem, I just didn't know (initially) what the problem was or how to fix it. Not that I didn't experiment and try.
"They're selling shares of me again,
But I'm not buying it,
I'm not buying it "
I finally know how to deal with my problems.
"It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun,
Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong."
I know how I should feel, and I can feel my mind growing stronger and brighter every day. It won't be long before I finally shake this shit off for good.
And for the record, I'm Deist. Check wikipedia if you're curious as to what relevance that has.
