It was said, by Albert Einstein, that "Envy is the ulser of the soul" and to me, it's the exact same... except that the Ulser of MY soul is Three Days Grace.
I love Three Days Grace because every song they've written is special and personal to me in several ways. There is no way to describe how I feel when I'm listening to their music, but... I want to try.
Have you ever spun what felt like a million miles a minute and then stopped in a second? The feeling makes you dizzy and puts a wierd feeling in your stomach. Their music makes me think and it does put a wierd feeling in my stomach... the feeling of wanting to shout out every word to every song.
Every song that I listen to makes me feel tremlous which I bet was the intention of the band when they wrote the song. It's true that I'm young and I know few things, but I know that Three Days Grace is like chocolate. Almost everybody loves it, those who don't either haven't been introduced to it or they're just plain crazy.
This is a universal truth: Anything can be a Guilty Pleasure, so those who say that they don't like TDG...... I bet at least a fourth of them do. They're either worried about what their parents think or what their friends think.
But I'm not here trying to put words to other peoples thoughts. It's not right for me to generalize. I've known about TDG for about six years now. Although, I really got into them about 2007.
Now, however, I cant even imagine living without them.
TDG seems to have a song for whatever problem you're going through.
Does anybody have the feeling that they may know Adam, although they've never spoken to his face? Well, I feel like I do. Whenever I see him... I see someone else. The REASON I got into TDG was because I saw him. He felt SO familiar to me! But, where do I know him from? It must seem stupid to anybody and everybody, but... It hurts trying to remember where I know him from. (wow, have you ever heard anything so stupid?)
I feel like I'm alone a lot. I have a lot of friends, yes... but... I don't know what will happen in the future, although I have an idea. We'll all seperate, going to different colleges, states, some might go to another country. I, myself, think I'll go to Canada. NO, not because of Three Days Grace (although that would be a fablous extra) I actually am canadian. My grandfather was born and raised in Canada. (I think that counts) he had canadian citizenship! (not that that matters)
So... back to my point, I feel alone. My friends, when they're not forcing me to go to dances, or parties, are gone. I don't praticularly feel any interest in some of them. They're just there. I don't mean to sound mean or anything, but that's not what I wanted for my days as a school kid. I'm the kind who wants few friends but ones with great qualities. When these feelings of regret, pain, anguish, and anger build up to the point I feel like breaking, I listen to Three Days Grace. I won't say it makes the feelings go away, but they help control them... release them. This is because Three Days Grace describes how I feel about my life.
I think a lot about death, murder, what happens after... I think the very first song I ever heard from them, (which I just found out what it was) I hate everything about you, saved me from myself.
Maybe that's why I feel such a strong tie to the band, mostly Adam, because I feel that if I hadn't heard the song maybe my life wouldn't be bearable. Not that it really is right now. At least now I can release myself into my writing. If I hadn't found out about them... I wouldn't want to write.
I heard about the controversy over their songs and I realized, TDG doesn't write or sing the songs for anybody, they're not there to impress or astonish, they're there because they love the music. They write the lyrics because THEY want to write them. They are the band because they wanted to do it for themselves. The fans, money, tours, although I'm sure that they love these things, were just part of the package. They didn't care what anybody else thought. That was what held me back... held me from being able to write what I want because I wanted to. I'm now free from my fears of other people's contempt.
Now, I'm proud to say I've written a novel about to be sent into publishing. Four of the male characters, probably some of the most important ones, were written in honor of Three Days Grace.
Been a long time since I've written. Hmm...
I've been watching a lot of Three Days Grace vids and realized just how much they've saved me. I've realized that if I hadn't found out about them... I would've cut off my left ear (metaphorically) Because that's just the kind of freak I am.
It's been... maybe a year (I have NO sense of time) since I found out about Three Days Grace and it's been about a year since I've gone a day without listening to them.
They draw you in to their songs, they get you addicted O.o. I'm high on Three Days Grace right now. o.O okay... not really, but I could be!
(not really in the mood to write... guess I'll go...)
Oh... and I sooo wanna kill hilary duff! Just saw Raise Your Voice! GRR! I AM SOOO JEALOUS! >< And... HILARY DUFF?!?! I didn't know she's a fan... O.O okay... fine! I didn't know (and still kinda don't) who she was. So... yeah. But I saw that show lizzie miggie or whatever and...O.O wow....
Absolutley wonderful
When I heard that Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace (which had been my two ABSOLUTE FAVORITE BANDS EVER!!!) were comming to San Antonio... I quite literally passed out. My friends had to take me to the nurse.
After school I ran to my mom screaming. I HAD TO FREAKING GO. I had gone to a FOB consert during the summer and she thought it was too expensive. Now, I'm not one for huge gatherings, but it was sooo freaking AWSOME!!!
