Stink Floyd (part 11)

Lyrics (from an interview with Chester Bennington):
...some of the stuff that he knew I was going through and then some of the stuff he was going through and some of the stuff he knew our friends and other guys in the band were going through... It was like a list of 50 things. Each one of them was on its own, really-really hard to go through. It was like... one of our friends died of cancer, my stepdad died of cancer, I broke my leg and I had to rehab that for a year, I quit Stone Temple Pilots because it was just too much after I broke... It was too much. I felt bad about that. And then I was depressed, and I was drinking again, and I was like... doing all the stuff... And I was like, “Dude, this is crazy...” And um... All my relationships were struggling, everything was struggling. And um... It was just really tough. And so... there was just enough things to keep me wanting to go... But yeah, I mean like, I don't think I was burnt out from just like “Man, I just need a break”. I was burnt out because I was just like, “Fuck the world”. Honestly, like... fuck all of you. Like, everybody and everything. And I don't like you and anything anymore, like, nothing makes me happy... I don't like anyone. I even told one of my therapists at one point, I said “I just don't wanna feel anything... I'm kinda envy of sociopaths 'cause they don't have to worry about all the feeling shit... I kinda want that”. And she's like, “You mean you don't wanna be a human being?” I was like, “Yep, that's what I want”... (Laugh)

RIP Chester

Right to be adored	

Let’s find the truth between the lines
The essence of these strangest times
When anyone can pose for stardom
Beneath the glitter there’s a void
Where jealous congregate to be annoyed
Together with the bored and lonesome

Everyone seems so much closer yet so far away
One by one, designing memories of all these days
When we stayed hopeful fighting for
Our global right to be adored

It’s hard to see between the lines
The truth is blurred by many warning signs
Reality is twisted
Obsessed with fame we build facades
And hide behind them while still playing god
Our influence is growing faster

Everyone seems so much closer yet so far away
One by one, designing memories of all these days
When we stayed hopeful fighting for
Our global right to be adored
 
It’s like living in an endless talent show
Emotions often overflow
C’mon and get it off your chest!
You are addicted like the rest!
So many friends, so little time!

We found the truth between the lines
Life can be hard when it is spent online
Together with the bored and lonesome

So let’s be real, let’s be ourselves
And stop pretending to be someone else
Together we can make a difference!

Everyone seems so much closer yet so far away
One by one, designing memories of all these days
When we stayed hopeful fighting for
Our global right to be adored
