Three Days Grace is one of those bands that gave me something to scream with when all hell was breaking lose in my life. It used to be them and Nine Inch Nails that would really make me come back down into something resembling normal. My home life really reminded me so much of the lyrics from Home. I could come home from school or from being out and it was like....walking into a war zone. It was my mother, always my mother....

My mother was a drug addict when it came to prescription medication....she claimed to have migraines but after about 10 years of that s***, her passing out on my birthday, embarrassing the hell out of me for no reason at all, she'd go places I wanted to go but she'd pass out in her soup and refuse to leave the restaurant cause she said she's fine. She wasn't fine....She was always there but if I needed help....she was never the person that supplied it...

When Home came out I found myself screaming with that...this is the woman who would come into my room, switch off my TV and scream at me about something that happened in HER BOOK! She threw one into my head once because somehow or another she figured I was responsible for something I didn't write and I wasn't even alive for when it was written. Someone explain this to me. She was assaulting, dangerous and always angry....it was like nothing could be right and a child....a 6 month old child was the cause of the fire. She hides inside and keeps herself hidden while her scars are so invisible you can't even tell she's a victim, whereas mine....she had no surgeries after the initial bits and I kept having them until I was 16.

Sorry...I rant. I'm a fan of Three Days Grace because they give me that feeling that someone else is there, there's a little bit of understanding to that s***ty life I used to be stuck in....I still listen to them now honestly because I love the beats, I still feel the emotion and now rather than calming down the anger in me it's more of way of sparking my creativity and giving me something better to think about.
