"This was not depression. This was not workaholism. I have a fairly severe mental illness that makes it hard to do my job - in fact, makes me totally ill suited for my job. I have a form of dissociative disorder that makes the world seem like it’s not real, as if things aren’t taking place. It’s hard to explain, but you feel untethered. And because nothing seems real, it’s hard to connect with the world or the people in it because they’re not there. You’re not there. That’s why I rarely saw my family back then: It’s hard to care when everything feels as if it’s taking place in your imagination. And if you’re distant with people, especially women you’re romantically involved with, they eventually leave. What makes my case even worse is that every night I go out on stage and have this incredible emotional connection between me, the band, and the audience. Then, just like that, it’s over. I go backstage, back to the bus, back to my hotel room, and sit there all by myself. That deep connection is yanked away in an instant. It’s like breaking up with your girlfriend over and over again, every night." Adam Duritz - Counting Crows.

I can't imagine trying to live that way, trying to get close to anyone, especially with the whole world just wanting to get close to him. Every night, again and again. But now I feel like I understand him a little bit better, or maybe differently, anyway thanks for posting this.
Whaaaaaa? Have you not seen cruel intentions? This song as amazing as it is, was used at the perfect moment in that movie. That scene alone is responsible for turning a descent film into a cinematic masterpiece for that generation
I am colorblind Coffee black and egg white Pull me out from inside I am ready, I am ready, I am ready I am taffy stuck and tongue tied Stutter-shook and uptight Pull me out from inside I am ready I am ready I am ready I am fine I am covered in skin No one gets to come in Pull me out from inside I am folded and unfolded and unfolding I am colorblind Coffee black and egg white Pull me out from inside I am ready I am ready I am ready I am fine I am fine I am fine
I always think of cruel intentions but god this song is amazing…
Damn.. that escalator scene is pure gold 😂☺️
At last, someone can express how 'we' feel. I've been screaming for 64 years, thank you Adam.
Howsit Simon me 2.. 50 years! I found solace. Have you?

Yes, musicians, athletes, and celebrities are fucktards. This. We. Know.
That is so sad. But thank you for sharing it.

Beautiful
I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready
I am taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter-shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am fine
I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded and unfolded and unfolding
I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am fine
I am fine
I am fine
