Today started out with me blogging, I was writing and thinking about abuse and just the messy cycle of it and then my sister came home telling me all about this amazing song that I had to hear, so I put it on, I felt sick. I wanted to scream and cry and yell. and what made me the most upset was the fact that this song is not made up. sure the words are, but situations like his happen all the time. The lines rihanna sings remind me of what I was feeling the entire time I was with him "just gonna stand there and watch me burn, thats alright cause i like the way it hurts, just gonna stand there and watch me cry, thats alright cause i love the way you lie i love the way you lie". and Eminems line's are his attitude. "next time i'm pissed i'll aim my fist at the drywall" The lies, lies, lies, and more lies. they make me so fucking mad that I could just SCREAM, and I AM TRYING NOT TO SCREAM OR SWEAR! I sit here shaking and on the verge of tears. how can these people sing these words and not get it. They and the damn radio stations are putting these songs out there and having young girls catch on to the tune and even sing along but have no idea what it is really saying. My little sister was convinced this song was good. MY BABY SISTER WAS SINGING ALONG. that is so beyond messed up. I would give my life for her, and she is being subjected to shit that is making it seem like melodious and catchy when it should be portrayed how it is. It should be dark and scary, it should be screaming and clawing and crying, it should be the noise of the fire burning, and the noise of his fist hitting the wall and them yelling, it should not be catchy little lines like "now you get to watch her leave out the window, i guess thats why they call it window pane" IF ANY WOMAN HAS THE GUTS IT TAKES TO WALK OUT SO THAT BASTARD CAN WATCH HER FROM THE WINDOW GOOD FOR HER! SHE IS TEN TIMES STRONGER THEN THAT PIECE OF SHIT IN THE WINDOW AND I HOPE HE FEELS PAIN! NOT PAIN LIKE PHYSICAL PAIN OR I AM WISHING BAD ON HIM BUT LIKE THE PAIN THAT HE PUT HER THROUGH AND THAT SHE PUT UP WITH. HOW CAN THIS SONG SAY "IF SHE EVER TRIES TO LEAVE THIS HOUSE AGAIN I AM GOING TO TIE HER TO THE BED AND WATCH HER BURN" ?!?! TELL ME ONE SITUATION WHERE THAT WOULD BE OKAY. ONE I DARE YOU! IF YOU CAN GIVE ME ONE WHERE THAT WOULD BE OKAY ON ANY LEVEL I WILL PERSONALLY GIVE YOU A HUNDRED DOLLARS. I am livid. What has the media come to that they can make a song with those words and actually sell and be played on the radio. If they are donating EVERY dollar to a womens abuse shelter then I will take back some of what I said and donate that hundred dollars to an abuse shelter, but I am willing to bet that the money isnt going there. It is probably going in their pocket and to they producers and blah blah so they can continue living their luxiurous lives well they subject girls, impresionable girls, and boys, to this crap. And what is so baffling to me also is after what Rihanna went through with chris brown, how could she sing this? I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt, and say they wanted to make a statement and show something, but if you are going to make a statement and one that you actually want to get through to people with then do it in a real way. not one that is going to get stuck in your head and you will have no idea what you are really singing along with.
I am exhausted, I am tired and exhausted and I am going to bed. I will write more about today tomorrow.
