Used to be the one of the rotten ones
And I liked you for that
Now you're all gone, got your make-up on
And you're not coming back
Bleachin' your teeth, smiling flash
Talking trash, under your breath
Bleachin' your teeth, smiling flash
Talking trash, under my window
Park that car, drop that phone,
Sleep on the floor, dream about me
Used to be the one of the rotten ones
And I liked you for that
Now you're all gone, got your make-up on
And you're not coming back
One of the best songs I have ever listened to.. it's very relatable and reminds me how much the world, and I have changed since I was seventeen. Everything has become so cruel, upsetting and depressing. Why didn't they prepare me for adulthood.. I was sheltered practically my entire and now everything becomes so much at the same time. It was such a good time even when it wasn't and then things got so ugly so fast and continues to get uglier everyday. People losing jobs at the speed of lightening, becoming furious with my family which is really selfish on my part and everyone crippled in some way trying to find a way to get it back to the way it was in 2006-2007 when no one had a care in the world and everyone hated the Bush Administration. It was so easier, simpler and I didn't restrict as much as I do now. I was really only cutting.. I knew nothing of politics while the rest of the world was pissed about the war in Iraq. Gosh, it was so different when I was seventeen, no one had an idea that a severe economic climate was on the way. My depression was growing and I was at college alone with no one to tell me what to do nor guide in what I should do. Then 2008 hit, people started losing jobs, My starving/binging/purging was worsening, I hadn't any idea what an eating disorder was until I started to see the school shrink. Obama came with the "Yes We Can" and everyone believed with such conviction that he would save everyone and anyone from their problems which was completely ridiculous in my eyes. I dropped out of school, working and had my first girl crush I can't stand her. The Obama Administration was formed and everyone would soon dislike him with conviction, I don't I am just not his biggest supporter, the world's financial climate would crumble just as fast and hard as ours have. I stopped listening to rap music and started to fall in love with electronic music, right now my mood is indie rock. Convinced myself I would go back to school more than three times and still haven't gone back.. Let's just say everyone and anyone has been struggling trying to find their way and putting a real and fake smile on their faces. It will get better, I have to keep telling myself that.. I spoke to a woman from Renfrew today, I was shaking so badly asking myself.. "Do I REALLY want this? What if I fail? I hope she is not judging me, What does she keep asking me so many questions?" I am such a fat, disgusting, failure and I consume so much space wherever I go going get better.. hopefully and if I don't I have tried and will continue to fight. One thing I will say is that I am scared, I have never gotten real help before, only really seen a therapist. Recovery, I am climbing up to see you.. I hope we can meet halfway, but just know that I don't know if I truly want you but I am going to try because the headaches, shivering, shaking, crying, toothaches, black spots and teeth chattering has got to stop soon enough...
