The stage lights dimmed. Everyone got quiet. He closed his eyes as the music started. A sadness unfolded when he sang:
“When you were here before
Could not look you in the eye
You just look like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like feather
In a beautiful world
You so very special
I wish I was special
But, I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What the hell I am doing
I do not belong here”
Then, he opened up and blasted his voice to the audience.
“He is running, now
He is running
Run, run run.”
What a powerful voice and beautiful remake of the song! I was captivated by the intensity and vulnerability. Then, I looked at myself. An old wound opened up and I saw myself, the day when I lost my child, three years ago.
“When you were here in my arms
Could not look you in the eye
You were an angel
Soft skin made me cry
You weigh like feather
On a blistering summer day
You so very special
I wish I deserve you
But, I am a creep
Can not keep any of my babies
I am a weirdo
Wearing ugly scares and butt naked
What the hell I am doing
I do not belong here
I do not belong
Anywhere
I am running
Running, running, running
To go back
Back to the beginning
When I can still have you
Safe inside of me”

I listened over and over again. Cannot help the tears rushing down. It touches so many at different level. I guess everyone at some point of life, feels “does not belong” and “like a creep.” I know I did.

Yes, we all feel like a creep sometimes. But I think this song is telling you that you’re not alone in this journey. Take care! (*’∀’人)♥
