This song hits home

This is a spoken word verse done by Henry Rollins on a song called Bottom by a band I love, Tool. And it is pretty apropos:

(If I let you, you would make me destroy myself)
(In order to survive you, I must first survive myself)
(I can sink no further, and I cannot forgive you)

(There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you)
(I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain)
(I will use my mistakes against you, there's no other choice)
(I'm shameless now, I'm nameless now, I'm nothing now, I'm no one now)
(But my soul must be iron 'cause my fear is naked)
(I'm naked an fearless and my fear is naked)

Dead inside, dead inside
Dead inside, dead inside
Nameless now, shameless now
Nothing now, no one now

Hatred keeps me alive
Loneliness keeps me alive
Weakness keeps me alive
Guilt keeps me alive at the bottom


Certainly how I felt at my bottom.
