Complex Post-traumatic Stress Disorder

Show me to the end of the night
Show me to the end of the day
Show me to the end of tomorrow, tomorrow

Show to me the path i should take
Show to me the choice i should make
Show me direction, direction

Show me the way
Show me the way…

And if i ever lose my way
And if i ever go astray
Show me direction, direction

Take me to the darkest hour
Show to me the strength and power
Give me the key

Show me the way
Show me the way…
Today…
Today
Show me the way

(from “Black Sheep” by MILCK)

Black sheep, cryin' those rebel tears
It's a battle to survive these lonely years
Black sheep, you live up to your name
You've been told for way too long that you're the one to blame

You never mean to hurt yourself or anyone around you
But trouble's like a curse, a curse you didn't choose
The house you're in is like a cage, the walls and floor rage
It's hard to breathe, but hard to leave

Look up, you’re not alone
You’ll make a home of your own
Don’t let anyone turn your unique into flaws
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are
Take those sticks and stones and make a home of your own
Every warrior grows from her battles and scars
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are…
Dear black sheep

It runs deep, it's insatiable
That hunger to be seen and to be understood
Black sheep, they call me that, too
I've wrestled with the dark, but I made it through
And so will you

Look up, you’re not alone
You’ll make a home of your own
Don’t let anyone turn your unique into flaws
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are
Take those sticks and stones and make a home of your own
Every warrior grows from her battles and scars
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are
Black sheep…

The house you build,
It will be safe and be full of light and space
You'll finally breathe, my dear black sheep

Look up, you're not alone, you'll make a home of your own
Don’t let anyone turn your unique into flaws
….you know that I love you the way that you are
Take those sticks and stones (sticks and stones)
And make a home of your own (all of your own)
Every warrior grows from her battles and scars
And you know that I love you the way that you are
And you know that I love you the way that you are
…you know that I love you the way that you are

I could tell you the truth
But you'd call me a liar…
Tried to wave a white flag
But you set it on fire

You cry, they don't
Every single night
That's how you know
You gotta let it go
Sometimes you just can't fix it
You love somebody…
But you gotta let 'em go
Before you go down with them
Can't love somebody who loves burning bridges
…

I used "Sorry" to keep you
And that was my error…
'Cause I tore me apart
Tryna hold us together

You cry, they don't
Every single night
That's how you know
You gotta let it go
Sometimes you just can't fix it
You love somebody…
But you gotta let 'em go
Before you go down with them…

You cry, they don't
That's how you know
You cry, they don't
That's how you know
You gotta let it go

Sometimes you just can't fix it
You love somebody, love somebody
But you gotta let 'em go
Before you go down with them
Can't love somebody who loves burning bridges

You cry, they don't
That's how you know

White knuckles
And sweaty palms from hangin' on too tight
Clenched shut jaw
I've got another headache again tonight

Eyes on fire…
And they burn from all the tears
I've been cryin', I've been cryin'
I've been dying over you

Tie a knot in the rope
Tryin' to hold, tryin' to hold
But there's nothing to grasp
So I let go

I think I finally had enough
I think maybe I think too much
I think this might be it for us
Blow me one last kiss

You think I'm just too serious…
My head is spinning, so…

I think that life's too short for this
Want back my ignorance and bliss
I think I've had enough of this…

I won't miss
All of the fighting
That we always did
Take it in
I mean what I say when I say "there is nothing left"

…No more battles from me

I think I've finally had enough
I think I maybe think too much
I think this might be it for us
Blow me one last kiss
…
Just when it can't get worse…

…I think I’ve had enough of this
…
…All the lies, all the why's
Will all be crystal clear
I think I've finally had enough
I think I maybe think too much
I think this might be it for us…
…
I think that life's too short for this…
…I've had enough of this

(from “Blow Me (One Last Kiss),”
song by Pink —> the full song is more “gritty”. Just a warning— it’s not for everyone’s tastes)

We stand in long lines waitin' for a ticket
To see paradise for just one minute
I thought I saw you walk away
I thought I knew you well

Stay on your good side, say what you wanna hear
Bend over backwards and shut up until I disappear
You'd never change for anyone…

And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
Then you fall from a height
Or we both could dive
Oh, what did you have in mind?

I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive

I pay a high price
I give myself away
You'd never think twice to ever do the same
And in the half-light we were glorious
I crumble every time

And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
Then you fall from a height
Or we both could dive
Oh, what did you have in mind?

I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
