I feel like firecrackers are going off in my ears but I feel like this is the only way to truly appreciate music. To turn it up so loud that I can't feel my own heartbeat because, at this volume, it's the same thing as the guitar riffs. I don't want a vague ambiance of metal, I want to LISTEN. I want to press "volume up" so many times that I can almost feel the sound waves reverberating through my skull, hitting me on both sides. I want this music to be the thing I feel the most - to be the only thing I feel. To be what fuels everything. I want to completely give up and surrender to something so wildly out of my control yet so thoroughly memorized that I know the lyrics better than I know my own name.
