There's gonna be a post missing in between this one and the previous one, but suffice it to say, we worked things out.
Yesterday I told my landlord that I'm moving, so I now have 2,5 months to vacate the place. I'm moving in with Jesper. Something I'd never thought would happen the first time we chatted over msn, but now we are, and I'm excited.
My mother is having one of her more difficult periods. She is insecure and in a bad mood, which she usually takes out on the only one who she can hurt without any consequences.. me.
She doesn't have much ammo on me, but the things she does, she uses so expertly that it hurts every time she opens her mouth.
I can't help but to think, that if I ever had a daughter I would want to have a close relationship with her, where she can tell me everything. I wonder if my mother thought the same when she was young. I hear how other people find strength in talking to their mother about their problems, and I feel all empty and sad inside. There's a huge part of my heart that's broken, and it's been broken for a long time.
I've always felt Linkin Park's lyrics describe my feelings towards my mother very well, but this is the best one:
"Numb"

"Numb"
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me,
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you.
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you.
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take.
[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you.
And I know
I may end up failing too.
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you.
[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more aware.
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you.
[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me,
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you.

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

[Chorus:]
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
