Song: Sympathy
Artist: Goo Goo Dolls
 
Wow. What. A. Freaking. Year!!!! This year has been inSAYne!! Definitely more downs than ups. And it's already more than half-way over. And I still feel as lost, stuck and confused as ever. I've gained a little but lost a lot. There is so much change happening in my life and instead of embracing the change and being excited I am screaming for it to STOP! I hate it! I don't want it! It's breaking my heart.
 
I've known about this song for years, but I never realized how meaningful the lyrics are until now. I shouldn't be too surprised though, the Goo Goo Dolls have some of the most incredible, deep and powerful lyrics ever written. They just seem to get me. This song sums up the way I feel about life and myself right now. It has not been good. That's all I'm gonna say. Having social anxiety, depression and just anxiety in general SUCKS! I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Music is my best friend. Sometimes it's the only thing I have to hold onto. It's the only place I can go to escape the pain and my pathetic life.
 
 
Stranger than your sympathy
And this is my apology
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out

And I wished for things that I don't need
(all I wanted)
And what I chase won't set me free
(it's all I wanted)
And I get scared but I'm not crawlin' on my knees

Oh, yeah
Everything's all wrong, yeah
Everything's all wrong, yeah
Where the hell did I think I was?

And stranger than your sympathy
I take these things, so I don't feel
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And now my head's been filled with doubt

It's hard to lead the life you choose
(all I wanted)
And all your luck's run out on you
(all I wanted)
And you can't see when all your dreams are coming true
Oh, yeah

It's easy to forget, yeah
When you choke on the regrets, yeah
Who the hell did I think I was?

And stranger than your sympathy
And all these thoughts you stole from me
And I'm not sure where I belong
And nowhere's home and I'm all wrong

And I was in love with things I tried to make believe I was
And I wouldn't be the one to kneel before the dreams I wanted
And all the talk and all the lies were all the empty things disguised as me

Mmm, yeah
Stranger than your sympathy
Stranger than your sympathy
Mmm hmmm mmm

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In their enth
