Wow, Chris Cornell was 2 years younger than me.
He killed himself. That became very apparent. I don't know what to think, but I sure as hell won't write against him or say he's a very selfish man. Most of all, I think I'm very sorry and very sad that suicide turned into the option to follow.
What pressure did he have?
What was the dynamic of being a "rock star" & coping?
How was he relating to his wife, his kids??
Do the lyrics of his hit song of a few years ago have anything, reveal anything about Chris that may shed light on his suicide?????????
Is it very wrong to supposed a song that a songwriter wrote is the way he really feels?
I wrote some fiction and if someone were to think I was writing about myself, and that's how I thought, I would be really insulted. Sometimes, writing is a game of filling in the answer, "WHAT IF??"
But here's the song lyrics. Do you know Chris' music? what do you think? Are any of the lyrics relating to his suicide.......at all?
What happened???????
"Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart"
Trying to find a reason to go on
All I ever get is burned and blind,
Until the sky bleeds the pouring rain
When you came along the time was right
Pulled me like an apple red and ripe
Wasn't very long you took a bite
And did me wrong, and it serves me right
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again, again
Every little key unlocks the door,
Every little secret has a lie
Trying to take a picture of the sun
It won't help you to see the light
Every little word upon your lips
Makes a little cut where blood pours out
Every little drop of blood a kiss that I won't miss
Not for anything
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again, again
Every little key unlocks the door
Every little secret has a lie
Tryna take a picture of the sun
And it won't help you to see the light
Every little word upon your lips
Makes a little cut where blood pours out
Every little drop of blood a kiss that I won't miss
Not for anything
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Here we go round again
