"I'm just see through faded, super jaded, out of my mind."

Heaven Beside You is a song by Alice in Chains. When I found EP all those years ago I identified with this song in a big way laying next to my husband in bed at night. I would lay there for hours, struggling with trying to find another way, perhaps a different way, something I hadn't thought of, hadn't tried, hadn't begged for. Something, anything, that would fix this mess of a marriage. I would lay there, and quietly cry out of frustration and hurt and helplessness.

I have been divorced now for many years, but I will always love this song. It still speaks to me, but now more from a place of strength than of weakness.

GREAT SONG. I love AIC. The album Dirt is one of my favorites. I guess that “Rooster” & “Down in a Hole” are most people’s favorites from that album, but I’m kind of partial to “Angry Chair”. One of my favorites from them is “Brother”. The imagery that song conjures is amazing. Awesome band. I’ve got about a dozen of their songs on my playlist.
