Description

"I dig 'til my shovel tells a secret,
Swear to the earth that I will keep it,
Brush off the dirt
And let my change of heart occur.

Sold soon after the appraisal,
The hammer struck the auction table
Louder than anything I've ever heard.

Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house.
But I put it out of my mind
Long enough to call it courage
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye.
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.

Meanwhile, my family's taking shelter.
The sparks send the fire down the wire,
A countdown begins,
Until the dynamite gives in.

The echo, as wide as the equator,
Travels through a world of built up anger-
Too late to pull itself together now.

Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house.
But I put it out of my mind
Long enough to call it courage
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye.
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.

There was an earthquake.
There was an avalanche of change.
We were so afraid,
We cried ourselves a hurricane.
There were floods,
And tidal waves over us,
We folded our hands and prayed.
Like a domino,
These wildfires grow and grow
Until a brand new world takes shape.

Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house.
But I put it out of my mind
Long enough to call it courage
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye.
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.

'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe."
Earth- Sleeping At Last


This is almost kinda a vent??
I very rarely ever vent online bc I don't like putting that stuff out there cuz I know it can make people uncomfortable (I know it makes me uncomfortable sometimes, depending on the context of the vent.)
But I know bottling up my emotions will not help anything and I try my very best not to do that anymore.
I used to suppress my own feelings because I felt that it was my job to keep my friends happy, therefor they needed someone strong.
But I realized that I'm not emotionally strong, and that listening to people constantly upset and in need of help dragged me down. I can not deal with that stuff. I've finally learned to love myself more than anyone, and that's good.
Even now sometimes I still try to trick myself into thinking I'm happy. But I'm still not 25% of the time. I do have depression, though I am on medication for it and it has helped a lot. The blue on Helkie's paws/feet is to symbolize me accepting that I am sad and that's okay. I'll get through it and I'll be happy again soon.
Yes I do have problems, but I'll get through them. And they'll be replaced with new problems, but that's just life.
Yes I am troubled, but you don't need to worry. Though if you're curious about it and would like to listen to me that's good. Just send me a note & we can chat.
oK that is all goodnight sweet children
