      80s kids also had it worse than future generations in many ways. Hell, I had to dig through an encyclopedia to learn anything. Education is way more fun and interesting these days. The 80's were different. Current generations are different. Each are better and worse in different ways. Just because something is different doesn't make it worse by default.

The music, the party scene, the concerts, and the money that was made in the industry were phenomenal. Today, tours are being canceled because of the cost and not enough profits involved. Back then, we bought the whole album and not just a song or two off the web. It's gone it'll never be like that again.

      As far as mainstream music goes, you are absolutely right. Mainstream (chart topping) rock at that time actually took talent to create and the songs often had some sort of meaning or soul. Also, even popular groups didn't try to be so formulaic. I'd also include some mainstream rock from the early 90's. By '94 or '95 mainstream radio (rock radio) started going down fast.

    So you did your little move and cried

    Don't close your eyes
    Don't sing your last lullaby
    There's no one there to hold you
    No one hears your scream

    I know it's lonely when your hanging 'round
    Don't ya' take it lying down - no, no
    Hold on - Hold on tight

    At the end of last year, I was in a very dark place. I sat on the floor of my closet, crying and wishing I could disappear forever. I fell asleep that night on the floor of my closet. The next day, this song popped up on a playlist I had created years ago. Then Silent Lucidity came on. My dad has always sang that song to me, even before I was born. It was the universe saying it would be ok. I now have a reason to live. She will be born in July. I sing to her all the time.

      People think suicide is always a mentally ill person taking a permanent way out of a temporary problem. I have come to believe that some people at a certain time feel their life has been completed. They have done it all, etc.. theres nothing more left to do really at a certain point. Society makes us think differently, dating at a 150 ( lol) or whatever all sorts of illogical foolishness. Not condoning it or saying I am.. just easier to understand that way.

    When's daddy ever gonna get home
    So you did your little move and cried
    In the middle of a suicide
    Don't close your eyes
    Don't close your eyes
    Don't sing your last lullaby
    There's no one there to hold you
    No one hears your scream
    You live life up and down
    Your nightmare's are your dreams
    I know it's lonely when your hanging 'round
    Don't ya' take it lying down - no, no
    Hold on - Hold on tight
    I'll make everything all right
    Wake up - Don't go to sleep
    I pray the lord your soul to keep
    Don't close your eyes
    Don't close your eyes
    Don't sing your last lullaby
    Don't close your eyes
    Don't close your eyes
    Don't sing your last lullaby
