Holding onto strings better left to Fray...


As I sit here on this bus, I am listening to Seether's  Holding Onto Strings better left to fray... And it has me thinking of the whole concept of just letting things go. Letting relationships that are effecting your life negatively — just saying ‘you know what? This is not working out.’ Friends, girlfriends, family members, whatever it is. You get to a point where you say ‘okay This is obviously not conducive for either of us to be in this relationship, so why are we still battling through this?’ It’s inane to sit there and go things are gonna get better — but they’re not gonna get better…and then you find yourself years later going this thing was doomed from the start…So much wasted energy goes into something that’s ultimately doomed so why even invest the time when you could invest in something that’s really positive?
Truer words have not been spoken my friends. I am in the middle of doing that exact thing right now, and it is really putting a strain on my current relationship. We all need to know when to just let go, or walk away. When I listen to the album again I know I will catch more of this undertone in their songs that I missed the first time I heard them. Can you ‘hear’ what Seether is saying when you listen to the album.
