There are some songs i like that i feel really describe the whole experience of the survivor in recovery
Reality by Staind...first verse+chorus describing dissociation
"the lights are on but you're not home, you've drifted off,
somewhere alone, somewhere that's safe, no questions here,a quiet place where you hide from your fears.....sometimes when you're out of rope ,the way to climb back up's unclear ,the walls you build around yourself, i guess they also keep you here, are you afraid of what they think? ,whoever "they" happen to be, or are you hiding from the scars of your own reality?"
Somewhere i belong-Linkin Park 1st and 3rd Verse+Chorus
"When this began,I had nothing to say,And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me,I was confused,And I let it all out to find, That I'm not the only person with these things in mind...I will never know myself, until I do this on my own, And I will never feel,Anything else, until my wounds are healed...
I wanna heal, I wanna feel,What I thought was never real,I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long,Erase all the pain till its gone,I wanna heal, I wanna feel,Like I'm close to something real,I wanna find something I've wanted all along,
Somewhere I belong"
Anybody else have any songs they feel really capture the survivor recovery experiences?
Peace,
