Wake me up - Avicii

“Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start

They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me”

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

This song came out right when I first discovered EP. That was an intense period of self-discovery for me. The line that resonated most with me was, "All this time I was finding myself and I didn't know I was lost." It still makes me teary-eyed just thinking back on it.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister I was in the hospital during the EP years but I was doing a bit of finding too. I just knew I was lost.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow How did you end up finding SW?

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister That is a long story. Ha ha. Another time, maybe.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow Well I'm just glad you're here. ❤️

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister let’s just say that I technically found SW… before I found freedom. 😅

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow Oh wow! Do you think SW helped in your healing process? Or was that just a coincidence?

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister coincidence. I never even posted during that time. I was too scared. I just read and read, like a little voyeur of other peoples lives and thoughts.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow Did they give you internet access, or did you have to find a way to sneak it?

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister god, no. we had none. it was the first time I had ever seen a smartphone and I have no idea how she got it in.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow First of all, that's awesome and badass. I love stories of rebellion, especially when it is against unjust rules. Second, wtaf. The more you tell, the angrier I get at them for how they treated you.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister if you want to know what it’s like, watch the movie Girl Interrupted. That’s a pretty accurate depiction.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister I like to think that I’m like Susanna in that movie. Truth is that I’m a lot more like Lisa. Oh well.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow I watched the first 30 min over lunch. So far I like Susanna, but I'm enamored by Lisa.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister yeah. I kinda have that way too. Crazy and wild, that’s me.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow I like intense. I would let Lisa be my bad influence, and I would love ever second of it.

Of course I reserve the right to change my opinion after I finish the rest of the movie.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister you’ll love her, even as you hate her. part of you always loves her… she’s just so broken.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow Yikes! What does she do? Can't wait till work is done in a couple hours so I can find out.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister Lisa is Lisa. That’s all I’m gonna say. You play with a tiger and you get the claws.

ShadowSister · 46-50, F

@JustGoneNow I already have a crush on her, so I don't see this going well.

JustGoneNow

@ShadowSister lol
