Help me understand why we’re drawn to these places that thrive on our regrets and lay a ground work to our depression’s. We cloak down in a darkness, settled, drunk and protected against a fear of opening ourselves to letting others in. When I’m probably the worst of all, who am I to talk. We hide in false perceptions, and take ourselves out of equations we don’t want to solve. Do we become the bars we drink in, or do the bars become our lives? It’s every situation we’re avoiding, every expletive in down days, every momentary heartbreak when we question who’s to blame. In every spiral downward our despondency takes shape, in attempts to paralyze our feelings, we forget…there’s nothing safe in shape shifting voices, and nothing to gain with drowning our sorrows in this way.
