Music Monday #27

This week's song is Space Bound by Eminem.

I think it's been pretty clear that I'm pretty much a die-hard Eminem fan. This song is a new one though, or at least recent. There will always be that sort of unbelievable flow that he has, but the thing in particular that caught my ear in this song was the lyrics. There are some of his songs that just scream out emotion, and it just pours out through the words. This is one of those songs... And so I've decided to include the words below... the lines in italics are the ones that really hit me, ones that I really love. I'll be honest, it's not a very happy song, but I can totally and completely relate...

Space Bound - Eminem

We touch, I feel a rush
We clutch, it isn't much
But it's enough to make me wonder what's in store for us
It's lust it's torturous
You must be a sorceress 'cause you just
Did the impossible
Gained my trust don't play games it'll be dangerous
If you fuck me over
Cause if I get burnt imma show you what it's like to hurt
Cause I been treated like dirt before ya
And love is evil
Spell it backwards I'll show ya

Nobody knows me I'm cold
Walk down this road all alone
It's no one's fault but my own
It's the path I've chosen to go
Frozen as snow, I show no emotion whatsoever so
Dont ask me why I have no love for these mu'fuckin hos
Bloodsuckin succubusses what the fuck is up with this
I've tried in this department but I ain't had no luck with this
It's sucks but it's exactly what I thought it would be
Like tryin to start over
I gotta hole in my heart but some kind of emotional rollercoaster
Somethin I won't go on so you toy with my emotions hoe it's over
It's like an explosion everytime I hold ya wasn't jokin when I told ya
You take my breathe away
You're a supernova.. and I'm a

I'm a space bound rocketship and your heart's the moon
And I'm aimin' right at you
Right at you
250 thousand miles on a clear night in June
And I'm aimin' right at you
Right at you
Right at you

I'll do whatever it takes
When im with you I get the shakes
My body aches when I ain't
With you I have zero strength
There's no limit on how far I would go
No boundaries no lengths
Why do we say that until we get that person that we thinks
Gonna be that one and then once we get 'em it's never the same
You want them when they don't want you
Soon as they do feelings change
It's not a contest and I ain't on no conquest for no mate
I wasn't lookin when I stumbled onto you must've been fate
But so much is at stake what the fuck does it take
Lets cut to the chase
But a door shuts in your face
Promise me if I cave in and break and leave myself open
That I wont be makin a mistake

I'm a space bound rocketship and your heart's the moon
And I'm aimin' right at you
Right at you
250 thousand miles on a clear night in June
And I'm aimin' right at you
Right at you
Right at you

So after a year and 6 months it's no longer me that you want
But I love you so much it hurts
Never mistreated you once
I poured my heart out to you
Let down my guard swear to god
I'll blow my brains in your lap
Lay here and die in your arms
Drop to my knees and I'm bleedin'
I'm tryin' to stop you from leavin'
You won't even listen so fuck it
I'm tryin to stop you from breathin'
I put both hands on your throat
I sit on top of you squeezin'
Til I snap ya neck like a popsicle stick
Ain't no possible reason I could think of 
To let you walk up out this house
And let you live
Tears streamed down both of my cheeks
Then I let you just go and just give
And before I put that gun to my temple
I told you this:
And I woulda did anything for you
To show you how much I adored you
But it's over now
Its too late to save our love
Just promise me you'll think of me everytime
you look up in the sky and see a star cause I'm a

I'm a space bound rocketship and your heart's the moon
And I'm aiming right at you
Right at you
250 thousand miles on a clear night in June
And I'm so lost without you
So lost without you
Without you
Without you
