The Gaslight Anthem

Sometimes it's hard to put how you feel into words, sometimes trying to tell someone how much they mean to you or how much they've hurt you. That moment when there is a massive ache in your heart that you can't put into words you just want to curl up in a ball because the ache doesn't seem to go away. There is also that moment when something gives you goosebumps, or when you are filled with a joy that makes you feel really alive. It's hard to describe exactly how that feels, to put all that into words.

Its also pretty much impossible to describe how it feels when I hear this bands music play. I wish I could describe it.

I get goosebumps, I feel calm but also alive, the world is a better place. Six weeks tonight I will be watching them play and I know it's going to feel incredible. I never expected this band to mean this much to me, given the circumstances of how I came to like them in the first place, but none of that matters, what matters is that the last couple of months of my life would have been so much harder without them.

If I ever met them, without hopefully sounding like a complete scary fan, I would love to tell them what their music meant to me and how it got me through. I've never found a band who can make me like dancing and who I can fall asleep listening to.

With their music on I know everything will be okay.
