Amaryllis

Adrenaline: When I just want to give up, take a break, rest, Adrenaline gets me back on my feet. Motivates me to push a little harder, go a little farther, and not give up until I'm satisfied.

Bully: Have I ever been bullied? Yes, in a non-direct way. It was done discreetly, verbally. And I let them get away with it. Am I a bully? I hope not. I don't think I am.

Amaryllis: Where do I belong in this world? Who am I, and what is my destiny? Who do I want to be, where do I want to go, what do I want to accomplish in my life?

Unity: We are stronger together, therefore we should stand as one. For those of us who all have something in common, let's all pull together and fight for it. Fight for our beliefs and what we stand for. The tighter we pull together, the stronger we are.

Enemies: To those out there who hate me, deal with it. I am who I am and if you don't like it, then fine. I don't intend to make enemies, in fact I hate making enemies and upsetting people, but I guess if you don't like me then you'll have to deal with it.

I'm Not Alright: Completely insane, yet happy with the person they are. Not giving a care in the world what others think. Yes, I believe in that. But do I follow that? Do I not care what people think of me? Or do I change parts of me and fix myself up so that it's suitable for the people around me? Do I care too much of other people's judgement?

Nowhere Kids: I am a victim of social media. I will admit it. I'm not always happy with that, though. I do think it's taking us over and brainwashing our generation, and I do my best to balance it out. I can't go completely without it, but I can lessen it. Either way, at the end of the day, my absolute best friend will always be a pen and paper.

Miracle: An emotional rollercoaster. Up and down, high and low, fast and slow. Smiles and tears, dreams and fears, all in about 4 minutes. It makes me love more than anything else, and at the end of the day, I realize love's the most important thing. And I love the ones around me, closest to me, the ones that will be there for me forever and always.

I'll Follow You: Who will I fall in love with? Who can I always trust with my secrets, my wishes, and my deepest, lowest thoughts? I can wait for the one who can give me that. The one that will follow ME down into the storm.

For My Sake: For the people who I once thought were my friends, my allies, I could trust. The ones that lied to me, I'm moving on. You're not worth it anymore. Thank you for making me stronger, but you're not for me.

My Name (Wearing Me Out): Your words of hate and sorrow and pain, they don't mean anything to me. They might have used to, but not anymore. I'm good at tuning out those words and determining what I want. I like who I am, and the words you associate to my name are wrong. They're your opinions. But I know who I am and I'm happy with that.

Through the Ghost: Stuck in a mist of sorrow, sadness, regret and depression, I know there's a better place. I have to push myself forward to that place, because it's where I want to be. Happy, strong with my head high up. I can be the girl I want to be, because I love myself.

These are my thoughts during each of the Shinedown songs on the album Amaryllis. If you weren't able to figure it out. :)
