I just heard this song again. I haven't listened to it in years and I never really understood it when I first heard it. But after my recent experience with a BPD, it basically sums up my whole experience.

This kind of music might not be your cup of tea, but if you just listen to words, it's pretty amazing.

Rollins Band - Liar

Awesome! Love Henry Rollins! Love his spoken word stuff too!

Wow - what a jolt!

Thanks for the post. I will listen to this when I have my next weak moment.

Thanks!

OMG

yes, that pretty much sums it up.

Hit the nail on the head with that one |iiii

Also has had some great roles as an actor... .

Here are some other songs that fit the bill for what you all may be going through:

"Evanescence - The Last Song I am Wasting on You"

For people who have had enough.

Sparkling gray, they're my own veins

Any more than a whisper, any sudden movement of my heart

And I know, I know I'll have to watch them pass away

Just get through this day

Give up your way, you could be anything

Give up my way and lose myself, not today

That's too much guilt to pay

Sickened in the sun, you dare tell me you love me

But you held me down and screamed you wanted me to die

Honey you know, you know I'd never hurt you that way

You're just so pretty in your pain

Give up my way, and I could be anything

I'll make my own way, without your senseless hate

So run, run, run... .

And hate me if it feels good

I can't hear your screams anymore

You lied to me

But I'm older now

And I'm not buying, baby

Demanding my response

Don't bother breaking the door down

I found my way out... .

And you'll never hurt me again


"Panic Lift - Hold On"

For those holding on

you fall away from me

and i'm here left with

all your pain

i swear that it wont end like this

i stand behind you still

just steps away so you can reach

your hand out to hold on to me

waking up here where you left me

trying to put this all together

things are said, and words are spoken

lives have changed and bonds are broken

you have decided to walk away

and left me here with all your pain

if i could change i swear i would

but no reasons understood

with every day that passes me

it seems like we will never be again

but tell me now what i should do

when every thought i think is of you

i cant help what bothers me

its just so hard when i beleive that

this could work, i swear it could

just give me a chance and you'll see

if outside forces pulled you away

then why does this hurt just the same

if there's nothing wrong inside with me

then why am i the one thats lonley

if you left now only to return

then why do want me to forget this

if it's us that you forsake

please just say it to my face


"Staind - Please"

For those doing everything and its still not enough

Can't you see that I'm sick of this?

Chances are you're oblivious to how I feel

Sitting on your throne, and I'm sure that I'm not alone,

Not alone, not alone.

Tell me please,

Who the fuc did you want me to be?

Was it something that I couldn't see?

Never knew this would be so political.

And please, I'm still wearing this miserable skin

And it's starting to tear from within

But it's obvious that doesn't bother you, so please

I didn't think that you'd sell me out

Now I know what you're all about.

You might feel in control of things.

But you're not holding all the strings.

All the strings, all the strings.

Tell me please,

Who the fuc did you want me to be?

Was it something that I couldn't see?

Never knew this would be so political.

And please, I'm still wearing this miserable skin

And it's starting to tear from within

But it's obvious that doesn't matter to you,

So please

I've swallowed all your answers

I've swallowed all my pride

You've used up all your chances

Can't keep this all inside

Tell me please,

Who the fuc did you want me to be?

Was it something that I couldn't see?

Never knew this would be so political.

And please, I'm still wearing this miserable skin

And it's starting to tear from within

But it's obvious that doesn't bother you

So please don't keep telling me that it's ok

I don't buy all the hit_ that you say

And quite honestly I'm fucing sick of it

so please if I cut off this nose from my face

Then I wouldn't feel so out of place

But it still wouldn't be quite enough for you,

so please.

Oh that was great! I forgot that song! ROFL... .sheesh!

I posted this a while back too.  Agreed, it's pretty amazing!  A hell of a wake-up call.   |iiii

Yep, me too.

Here's an awesome one, called So Cruel by U2, words are so prophetic, Bono wrote them about Edge's situation with an ex wife that he loved dearly


We crossed the line

Who pushed who over?

It doesn't matter to you

It matters to me

We're cut adrift

We're still floating

I'm only hanging on

To watch you go down

My love

I disappeared in you

You disappeared from me

I gave you everything you ever wanted

It wasn't what you wanted

The men who love you, you hate the most

They pass RIGHT through you like a ghost

They look for you, but your spirit is in the air

Baby, you're nowhere

Oh... .love... .

You say in love there are no rules

Oh... .love... .

Sweetheart,

You're so cruel

Desparation is a tender trap

It gets you every time

You put your lips to her lips

To stop the lie

Her skin is pale like God's only dove

Screams like an angel for your love

Then she makes you watch her from above

And you need her like a drug

Oh... .love... .

You say in love there are no rules

Oh... .love... .

Sweetheart,

You're so cruel

She wears my love like a see-through dress

Her lips say one thing

Her movements something else

Oh love, like a screaming flower

Love... .dying every hour... .love

You don't know if it's fear or desire

Danger the drug that takes you higher

Head in heaven, fingers in the mire

Her heart is racing, you can't keep up

The night is bleeding like a cut

Between the horses of love and lust

We are trampled underfoot

Oh... .love... .You say in love there are no rules

Oh... .love... .

Sweetheart,

You're so cruel

Oh... .love... .

To stay with you I'd be a fool

Sweetheart

You're so cruel

The Life and Death of Mr Bad Mouth - PJ Harvey

Baby, you got a bad bad mouth

Everything is poison that's coming out

Cheating, lying since the day you were born

Someone outta rinse it out with soap

Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out

No kind words are coming out of your mouth

Plenty goes in but nothing good comes out

Badmouth, sad mouth, you were an unhappy child

That doesn't make your lying tongue alright

Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out

Cos everything is poison

You'll be the unhappy one

Your lips taste of poison

You're gonna be left alone

When you told me every word you said

Came from voices talking in your head

Baby, I just think you're out for what you can get

Your badmouth has killed off everything we had

Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out

Cos everything is poison

You'll be the unhappy one

Your lips taste of poison

You'll be in the corner crying

I'm not a huge expert on Henry Rollins so I was just wondering if anyone knows what the inspiration for this song was.

I figure he has either had a person with BPD in his life or that he himself has BPD. Although I sorta doubt that he has BPD because the words "I'm a Liar!" aren't really in a BPD's vocabulary.

Just wondering

I sent her the song (Liar) almost 2 yrs ago to the date! and crazy but, the writer of "Please" is a buddy of mine and knows all about the BPDex that was in my life, have to ask him what was his insperation for that song!

Love Henry x

I LOVED this song... .at the time I was dating an NPD so it fit the situation. LOL, thanks for reminding me. "Love is Blindness" is a good one off that album too.

Flave: Henry Rollins is singing about someone who's NPD/BPD. You're right--very scary, and true of my ex.  This song and video is a great tool... .just watch it when you think you miss your exBPD/NPD.  I did, and it helped me tremendously. 

OriginalofSpecies, I introduced BPDexgf to the music of U2 and passion and soulful lyrics of Bono,as she was half my age,and "Original of the Species" was kind of our story,crazy how it comes full circle with, "So Cruel"

DUDE! thats one of my favoritest songs ever! none of my friends can stand it. liked it before i met her... .wow this is awesome... .also check out megadeths 'scorpion' the chorus really hits on these ppl to a T

it totally sucks he got killed off in SOA too. he's an awesome actor. although he only does bit parts, he's kind of like steve buchemi (sp). remember the movie he was in with flea and anthony keidis from chili peppers? was it airheads? lol he's frickin awesome. but he scares the crap out of me and im bigger than he is lol. just something about that dude aint right
