so true.

Some people like silence, they find peace in it. They like how in silence, they can sort out all their feelings and thoughts. They find it easier to think in silence, they feel comfortable and safe. It’s their way of expressing who they are, not only to themselves, but to the world as well. But me, I hate it. I hate how in silence you feel so alone. When its silent, i start thinking about painful things. Fights, problems, worries, etc. Instead of silence, I prefer music. When im sad, happy, lonely, confused, excited, you can tell by my music. You can tell if im having a good day or a horrible day. Its my way of expressing who I am. I dont put in headphones to tone out the world or ignore what is currently happening in my life. I do it because thats the only time i feel peace, i know every beat, every word, because its part of who I am. Music used to be just lyrics to me, and it still is to some people. But now as I grow up, I have realized it’s not just lyrics. It’s my heartbeat, it’s an addiction. A life without music would be a terrible thing, because I could never express who I am. If you listen to my favorite songs, they are the words I dont say, the thoughts I ignore, and the memories I lock away. Some good and bad, but its just who I am. Music is my silence.
