I have battled depression ever since I can remember. I know a lot of these songs are more about addiction which thankfully I never struggled with but depression definitely falls into the same category. These songs hit home. it is great that Justin has been through all we have been through so his music comes from the heart and not just for money. This is the first time I actually sat and listenend to this song and this touches my soul on so many levels!!

Same here Leasa. Sometimes people self medicate depression with substance abuse and that is where the difference is. I have fought off doing that my entire life. Going strong and yes his lyrics hit the nail on the head!!
@christineleatherwood79873 жыл бұрын
Which is why many people believe substance abuse should be a medical issue instead of a criminal one. If someone self medicates they need help not a criminal charge/time in jail which only makes that person's life worse/harder. A lot of times it also makes them fall back into abuse of substances and sometimes go harder on it which causes overdoses. Js

I live in England amd got no idea how I found out about this band. but at time I was suicidal about kicked out my parents house had hepc and a herion and crack habbit.this song had massive impact on me. changed my outlook made me want to fight my habbit. was a long journey took me a quite few years to get totally drug free but I did it. it was amazing this song blow my mind and then I listened to more and more and more and i remember thinking wow he fully gets me he has probably been were I am and now look at him whole band proper legends. I love it now the songs have changed over the years due to his life changing he is a very talanted man

This song helped me so much in a dark time. Now the lyrics resonate in a more positive & validating way many years later, while processing my neurodivergence and past traumas in therapy. Love how lyrics can hold space for so many perspectives.

I really need to talk with you I keep stepping on the vein That keeps my lifeline flowing through I wanna be your perfect stick of glue But I don't feel perfect at all Sad and insecure flaw I find it hard to hold conversations I get sweaty sick and I wanna walk away Its not you its strictly me in this situation But, I'm wondering will it ever go away just go away, still Sometimes I feel like weeping Awake and when I'm sleeping Perfecting how to put a game face on This puzzle I've been keeping Has been in hiding creeping out the closet door Spilling out onto the floor How long will I be picking up pieces? How long will I be picking up my heart? Listen, I'll be as honest as I feel I feel like I'm getting more paranoid and I'm hearing things And they never turn out real It feels like my heart is made of pure steel It's just so heavy all the time I'm scared of death And I'm scared of living I gave up on the past cause it's unforgiving I misplaced my trust I watched my word begin to rust I'm a balloon about to bust I need a place for reliving. Still Sometimes I feel like weeping Awake and when I'm sleeping Perfecting how to put a game face on This puzzle I've been keeping Has been in hiding creeping out the closet door Spilling out onto the floor
