But now I’m twenty-one and know better. In its darkest corners hides an evil I couldn’t imagine. When my pain becomes too much, I take control the only way I know how—a handful of pills.

Then there’s his three bandmates. They somehow see my inner turmoil when nobody else does, and are determined to ease it in their own unique ways. The pills didn't end me, but I think this industry might. Can I take control of my life, or will everything finally consume me? less
