Hey.
I've been feeling a bit down in the dumps lately for whatever reasons, I am not very clear myself. Possibly because of the stress, maybe there are more underlying reasons. Either or, I have many inspirations during my nights, mainly because my thoughts roar louder during the nights compared to the days.Initially, I wanted to write another diary-like entry as usual however, this time I have a strong urge to do this post differently. So, you can be assure that there are more posts coming up with a lot of Tumblr and quotes kind of pictures, which I have no idea if anybody does like it as much as I do. Anyway, let's get on with the post.
Like I said I have been feeling slightly bad lately and coincidentally, I came across a few songs which lyrics are exactly how I once felt. Though they are not exactly my genre of songs but look at the lyrics, people that know me well enough would be thinking if I wrote it. Therefore, this is When She Cries by Britt Nicole.
"When She Cries"
Little girl terrified
She'd leave her room if only bruises would heal
A home is no place to hide
Her heart is breaking from the pain that she feels
[CHORUS]
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She wonders why, does anyone ever hear her when she cries?
Today she's turning sixteen
Everyone's singing, but she can't seem to smile
They never get past arms length
How could they act like everything is alright?
Pulling down her long sleeves
To cover all the memories the scars leave
She says, "Maybe making me bleed
will be the answer that could wash the slate clean."
[CHORUS]
This is the dark before the dawn
The storm before the peace
Don't be afraid 'cause seasons change and
God is watching over you
He hears you
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know he hears her when she cries
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know he hears her when she cries
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know he hears her when she cries
She'd leave her room if only bruises would heal
A home is no place to hide
Her heart is breaking from the pain that she feels
[CHORUS]
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She wonders why, does anyone ever hear her when she cries?
Today she's turning sixteen
Everyone's singing, but she can't seem to smile
They never get past arms length
How could they act like everything is alright?
Pulling down her long sleeves
To cover all the memories the scars leave
She says, "Maybe making me bleed
will be the answer that could wash the slate clean."
[CHORUS]
This is the dark before the dawn
The storm before the peace
Don't be afraid 'cause seasons change and
God is watching over you
He hears you
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know he hears her when she cries
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know he hears her when she cries
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know he hears her when she cries
I have put this song into my playlist as well, so feel free to click the icon with the musical note at the right corner of the music player.
This song is not just for you readers to discriminate or judge me but to be aware of all those around you that are exactly feeling the same way as I did, as this song perceived. This song is an evidence that I am not the only one that ever felt this way and neither are you, whoever that is reading this. For those of you that are reading the lyrics with your heart and is able to relate to yourself or someone you know. Do know that at times we will feel alone, left out and even feel like giving up but you are not the only one that is feeling like this. If there are others out there that have once been in your place, feeling what you have felt and did what you have done, and yet they are still living and going through the everyday phase of their life, you can too. Cheer up and press on.
You can choose to die, but you can never ever choose to live again.
