These past few days I have barely been listening to real music. I've been caught up in a catchy beat and a cute voice to not even realize what I am listening to. Usually this wouldn't bother me but now it does. Every little detail that music portrays catches my attention. The beat and when the artist begins to raise or lower their light or deep voice onto their unique track, how they take a breath after rhyming too much that they just need a gasp of air to finish, when the beat drops halfway through a song and switches to a higher tone to convey a message of hope only through sound itself. But i'm over here wondering why Ke$ha is repeating herself all the time and i'm actually listening to it. I want to just listen to the music that makes me happy but the music that makes me happy is killing the one part of me that keeps me sane. It opens too many emotions and makes my actual soul feel it. I'm actually scared to listen to some of my favorite artists because they make me think too much about myself and the world I live in. And these other artists are just singing in their auto-tuned overrated voices about God knows what and I actually don't care. I don't understand any of this and I don't expect anyone else to. Just a personal problem that will fade in time like any other problem or feeling i've felt. Music is just a great escape.

you dont expect anyone else to understand where youre coming from but i do. music is the most beautiful aspect of life in my opinion, and those songs you listen to that open up those feelings should be continuously played, for the sheer fact that they can put life in a perspective that you can understand logically. for instance you you basically say you keep your true feelings locked up behind closed doors.. well what happens if you lock a dog up and dont every let him out? it will go crazy and eventually when it does get the opportunity to get out, it has a high possibility of harming people or other animals around it. but if you take your dog on walks and let it out to play with other animals, it becomes a more calm, friendly, and genuinely happy animal. sort of a unique metaphor but think of listening to this music as taking your feelings on a walk, releasing them freely to go play for awhile, if you keep your feelings locked up, they will continue to build up, and eventually like a caged dog. when they do just break fee they could possibly harm someone close to you or even yourself, why not listen to the music that makes you feel emotionally in control. music to me at least and i think for you to. helps allow you to sort out all your emotions and figure out your next move in life to a certain extent. it is great knowing that there is a song to listen to about a life situation you can relate to, and use it as wisdom to help you persevere overcome your own personal obstacles. feelings are ment to be expressed with the ones you trust to truly respect how you REALLY feel. but music literally can change how you feel by the slightest vocal, beat, rhyme scheme, transition ect. and if this music that opens up your feelings really makes you feel this way about yourself then you shouldnt be worried about how its gonna make you feel in a sense, you should be happy at the fact that it can make you feel that way at all, if that makes sense. think of life as a huge house, and the more you live life the more you fill into this house, rooms get filled with random thoughts, the basement is were you keep all the bad memories that have hurt you through out your life, the attic is full of the dreams you wish to fulfill, friends are like furniture they come and go as the seasons change. music is a form of art, and youre still on your journey to find out what portraits you still wanna place on the wall of this house i call life. youve got a great mind and a huge heart. keep your head up shorty ;)
