 Song 114

Hi everyone today's song, explains in perfect detail how I've been feeling about my blog. As you know, I've been struggling with whether or not I should keep doing this. I mean I've been doing this blog since 2022, and I just feel like it hasn't gone anywhere. But people in my life have been encouraging me to keep going, especially my person. Which I am very grateful for. For now I won't give up, but if there comes a point where I do stop posting these. You'll know I've officially given up on this blog. But for today, here's the song I want to review. It's called MEDZ by The Used. I like the modern take on this song, it almost reminds of newer Bring Me The Horizon. It's just really fun, and has a great beat. The first verse: "Is it something they know? Is there something I missed? Everyone around me seems to know how to live, with this impossible burden of consciousness. Knowing I'm gonna die, not knowing when that is. When we were kids, we used to get gold stars. A for effort just for trying real hard, but nothing I do seems to measure up. How does anyone know when it's time to give up?" I know I've felt this way. The chorus: "Everything I touch turns to dust, everything I feel is way too much. Sometimes I think I'm born for failure, it's always darkest before it turns to black. And I can't tell you if I'll make it back, sometimes I think I'm born for failure." I have moments of self doubt, I sometimes think I'm a failure, it's hard. The second verse: "One hand outstretched, the other clenched in a fist, reaching out for the air while I fall off a cliff. Feeling some new kind of paralysis, the b****** were right, I never felt more sick. Maybe I'm just showing all the symptoms of American exceptionalism. Cause nothing I do seems to measure up, who's gonna tell me when it's time to give up?" I think you can probably see why I chose this song, it speaks for me. It helps me understand my feelings. The bridge: "The medication isn't working, I don't think anybody knows how to stop the contraindication. Cause I'm just fighting with myself now, the medication isn't working. The medication doesn't work." I feel like I'm constantly fighting with myself, but I try to stay positive. I try to keep going, and just be the best I can. There isn't really an outro for this, other than the chorus repeating one more time. 

Well that's it for this review, sorry I got a little personal in this one. It's just easier to say how I'm feeling in my writing, then it is out loud. But I do recommend you check it out. Happy listening everyone, and I'll see you in the next one.
