Song Counting Stars- Perfect Song for BPD - Relationship

Just wondering how many heard that song that's been out for a long time now and can
totally related to your BPD relationship?
Lyrics "Feel so right doing the wrong thing"
"Everything that kills me makes me feel alive." "I feel something so wrong doing the right thing."
I mean it's totally about us NON-BPD and our insatiable pull ton them.
Just wondering if this guy that wrote it bumped into a BPD relationship.
Sure sounds like it.
Yes, and I am still craving at times knowing its the wrong thing but makes me feel so alive.
Dreaming about the way it could be. (Wow, the killer line, that I know we do at times. Think how it could be so wonderful again.)
So spot on! So, I try not to listen to as much, since that used to be trigger in a way.
Thoughts?

It seems like many of the songs on the radio were BPD inspired. JMHO.

I am a recording and touring artist signed to a record label and my next release is BPD inspired. Lyrically it's the easiest thing I've done so far. It practically writes itself.

Bono from U2 wrote many songs about his borderline ex
There's a lot of it out there

Wow, I never knew. I heard another but because BPD was more or less just coming to light in the last 5-10 years I didn't think there were many if at all. Guess I was wrong.
Thanks

Inferno... I always liked 'one' from U2 and just looked up lyrics, haven’t heard it in a while... .but wow, yes, that song is about BPD...
You say
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
Its strange, I play guitar so I always just focused on the tune before I met her. She turned me on to the lyrics, we had our songs about love and that lost feeling etc…Now, because of her, Ill start listening for a different message in those lyrics.
