R.E.M.

It’s funny how you can pick up an album and be reminded of times in your life.  Right now, I am honestly struggling to keep my sanity; jobless, school is rubbish, I no longer see a therapist, no longer on Prozac, and I rarely talk to my girlfriend.  Enter R.E.M…Michael Stipe’s voice is haunting and his song writing is absolutely brilliant.  I used to listen to this song all the time throughout highschool, some what of a guilty pleasure, breaking the typical hardcore or punk rotation I tend to have.

It’ll be fine

A week that felt like years

Months that felt like decades

They say ‘distance makes the heart grow fonder’

I feel eyes watching me

But none hold the beauty and captivate me

Like yours.
