Another ADHD anthem from way back for me:


I am a hostage to my own humanity
Self detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
And all I'm asking is for you to do what you can with me
But I can't ask you to give what you already gave

I got this album when I made one of my first pillow forts illuminated by 1970s Christmas lights.

I have photophobia and can't stand sunlight or regular / fluorescent lighting.

My sensory issues are a big part of my ASD diagnosis.

This represents my PTSD and the bad view I have of myself because of Stockholm.
It's really hard to shut off my "trauma brain" when I'm flooding.

Jumper - Third Eye Blind



I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
The angry boy
A bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight
You're way too loud
You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well, everyone I know has got a reason
To say "put the past away"
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
And well, he's on the table
And he's gone to code
And I do not think anyone knows
What they are doing here
And your friends have left you
You've been dismissed
I never thought it would come to this
And I, I want you to know
Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today
We can put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
Understand
Can you put the past away?
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
And I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
And I would understand

Fade to Black - Metallica

Owl City's recent song, The Tornado

And that was how I learned to live when you can run but you can't hide
How to feel trapped in a tunnel but come out the other side
'Cause with all the stormy weather in the world, you learn
To take life one storm at a time, you don't have to be afraid

And now when there's bad weather on the way, I stay calm
And I keep hanging on because it's always darkest before the dawn

A winter's day
In a deep and dark December
I am alone
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow

I've built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship, friendship causes pain
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain

Don't talk of love
Well I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
If I never loved I never would have cried

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armour
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me

And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries

107 by Less Than Jake is how I feel these days





Unless you could see inside my head,
You couldn't possibly understand
I'm happier when things are falling apart at the seams
And you'd never know just by looking at me
And I'm strung out on the future
And burnt out on the past
Sometimes I'd rather just burn this place right to the ground
And y'know it just may be me
But the parking lot with all those creeps
Keeps me convincing myself I'm completely sane
With sleep over rated
And my ideals outdated
I know that I wouldn't have it any other way
And I can't explain what this place races through my mind

These two songs represent how my 1st relationship ended~
