Day 22: A song for feeling tired

Gasoline - Houndmouth

Time's come to tell you the truth
Tell you what you already knew
I'm a fool, I'm a fool
Wrapped up in you
When the morning comes I'll be gone

Day 22- A song for being tired

Misinterpreting sad pop lyrics as personal strain since 2003

I used to beg for this song to be played on repeat before bed. My cousin, bewildered but obliging, would put it on her computer while my sister and I lay in our bunks, soaking it in like it understood something we couldn’t explain.

Even then, I think we were looking for reflection - something that mirrored the ache we didn’t have words for. My cousin thought it was a strange choice for comfort, but now, I get it. Even sadness can feel like recognition. And sometimes, that alone is enough to lull you to sleep.

Everytime - Britney Spears

At night I pray
That soon your face will fade away
And everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you baby

i used to get Britney spears stickers back in 1999 out the coin machine damn took me back

Day 22: A song for feeling tired

I'm absolutely exhausted and sleep-deprived today. I'm fighting that shit and blasting some energy into my eardrums lest I give in and fall back asleep sitting up.

Day 22: A song for feeling tired

The Leaving Trains never got enuf or the right kinda love. When hardcore bands were thrashing it out, they were righting nicely crafted paisley underground songs. Then when hardcore bands realized they needed to be more melodic and experiment the LTs started playing hardcore.

Ass backwards, like Falling James Moreland, who was married to Courtney Love for abt five minutes.

Plus my wife’s name is Sue and she wants to sleep.

Day 22: A song for feeling tired
Roads - Portishead

There can come a moment when you stand at a crossroads, staring at the landscape ahead. You blink, look around, and realise you are all alone.. except for the souvenirs you've carried from all the roads behind.

Leaning against the signpost you begin sifting through your bags, exhuming the rocks and thorns. It's exhausting, but so is carrying everything.

And this song thrums through my mind as I dig. It's not fair, it's not right.. it just .. is.

*Picks up a small bag and skips down the road lined with trees*

Day 22: A song for feeling tired

When I get too tired, too many days without enough sleep, I tend to get a little self loathing. It’s funny, I wrote and posted this set of prompts last week… This morning I woke up SO fucking tired after a long anxious night. This song popped into my head when I was reminded of the prompt.

“Every day I fight a war against the mirror
I can't take the person staring back at me

I'm a hazard to myself
Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
It's bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else”

P!nk - Don’t Let Me Get Me
