The Funeral - Band of Horses

I'm not sure the above is a song to get you out of a slump, but it spoke a lot to me about my experience.

"I'm coming up only to hold you under
And coming up only to show you're wrong
And to know you is hard; we wonder...
To know you all wrong; we warn."

It made me think about my role as a codependent. Trying to control the addict and show them how wrong they are...that knowing them is hard. Ironically, when I fell in love with the song (even before I knew the words) I decided to find it on YouTube just to listen. I landed upon the video which happened to depict an alcoholic of all things:

I can't watch without crying
