Self abuse

(Howard Aronson)

Self abuse has been something that's been in my life for a long time. I can act very negatively, and have an effect on people around me that are just trying to do the right thing. It ends up making me feel terrible about myself, and it's led me to drink and drug many times. It all comes down to really one thing, acceptance, of everything that's going on in my life. I have to know that I'm not in charge, and the sooner I start to accept life on life's terms the better off I'll be. If I don't do this, I'll be in a constant fight with myself, and continue the self-abuse that I so much want to stop.

There's been so many times I put my foot in my mouth And with each time My life goes further south I react before I think And so many times It's led me to drink Self-abuse Is nothing new It happens everyday It's what I do Something's got to change I know it starts with me I need to do the work So I can be who I'm supposed to be Why am I so afraid To take the steps To give up control And learn to accept Self-abuse Is nothing new It happens everyday It's what I do

Have you ever noticed

By Howard Aronson

This is a contemplative lyric, about life as it passes by your eyes. We notice people's faces but they don't always tell you what's really going on. You can read signs on the wall, but who pays attention to him anyway. There's so much traffic in this world, that I'd rather be flying. One thanks for sure The oceans and the mountains are always in motion, and that's what we have to do with people Just keep moving We can't be distracted by all the noise that's around us on a daily basis. It's so important to stay focused on yourself, and at the same time just be mindful of what's around you.

Upside down

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about a person that has no tact, it doesn't care who they hurt what they say it only cares about themselves. It's an angry lyric, that just depicts someone who's very selfish. Every time this person comes around I get turned upside down, I feel hurt by this person. One way or another this person has a negative effect on my life everyday whether they come around in my head, or they come around in person.

Misunderstood

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about my struggles with ADHD. It's something I've had since I was diagnosed at 3 years old. I've been on and off medication for it both legally and with cocaine if you want to call that medication, illegally. ADHD is very challenging to live with. It affects your everyday life, you're interpersonal relationships, and your ability to focus, and think before you act. But there's so many good things about being ADHD. Most people with ADHD are very creative and can be very successful, such as Einstein. If you have the ability to hyperfocus on positive things instead of negative things you could turn your ADHD into an asset. For me it's been bittersweet, as I've used my ADHD to be successful, but also to have it play a part in my downfall. I hope you like this lyric.

Love love love

By Howard Aronson

This is a lyric about the good and the bad side of love. It's a word that's thrown around so loosely. I love this I love that I love you, blah blah blah. Love can be wonderful, but love can also be treacherous. It can keep you apart and bring you together. Just like in a marriage you may love your wife but you're not in love with her, and you fall in love with someone else. Love can be an arrow through the heart. But we all need love to survive, and it begins and ends with love, I believe that strongly.
