Cover art for Blood Makes Noise lyrics by Suzanne Vega

This song is so weird because I can literally relate it totally to an experience I once had. I overdosed on anywhere from 250-300 aspirin, and a symptom of aspirin overdose is a ringing in the ears. Now while I was in the ER, it eventually got to one point where I could NOT hear anyone for the life of me unless they yelled directly into my ear tunnel.

They kept asking me over and over again why I did it, and I couldn't answer them not only because I couldn't hear them, but also because I was so fucked up mentally that I myself didn't really know. Sorry for the downer-ish topic. But I felt it related a lot to the song. BTW, I'm all good now :-D
