I think this is the song I posted, still holds true, more than ever.
Thought I was high, thought I was free Thought I was there, divine destiny I was wrong, this changes everything Ground breaks down right under me, cleanse and purge me in the water
And there’s also this one, except in my case I am sober, and it’s still true, the problem is just somehow inherently me.
I am just a worthless liar I am just an imbecile I will only complicate you Trust in me and fall as well
I will find a center in you I will chew it up and leave Trust me, trust me, trust me Trust me, trust me
Don’t anybody say I didn’t warn them.

This song is a cover of Chester Bennington's song. When you change the tune, it sounds almost like someone's accepted the negative parts of life. Instead of being angry, they're now in acceptance.
I feel like Chester is happy that someone made something positive out of his art and pain.

When in doubt, there's always the King.

Their fans tattoo images and lyrics from this song on their bodies as a pledge to stay alive. And here they are, singing the song, mostly joyously. Listen to what they yell between lines.

Me when I have to interact with NT strangers. Just replace the word daughter with NT.

If ever words were spoken Painful and untrue I said I loved but I lied In my life All I wanted Was the keeping Of someone like you As it turns out Deeper within me Love was twisted and pointed at you
Never ending pain, quickly ending life
You keep this love, thing, child, toy You keep this love, fist, scar, break You keep this love
I'd been the tempting one Stole her from herself This gift in pain Her pain was life And sometimes I feel so sorry I regret this the hurting of you But you make me so unhappy I'd take my life and leave love with you
I'd kill myself for you, I'd kill you for myself
You keep this love, thing, child, toy You keep this love, fist, scar, break You keep this love

I apologize for the double post. But this is music that describes my condition very well. Everything from the music to the artwork. My bipolar disorder makes me feel like a damaged human being. And the one thing I fear most in this world is losing my medicine and experiencing another dangerous manic episode.
