Sing me to sleep

I really really love music. I don't think many people appreciate it on the level that I do. You can just lose all your problems and forget everything in music, just let it wash over you and destroy every other feeling you're currently experiencing and just let it take over you. I don't even feel like myself when I'm listening to music, I feel so different. All I have to do is close my eyes and I don't have a care in the world.
Music transports you into a place of tranquility- even on my darkest days all I have to do is listen to my favourites. I really really appreciate music, everything about it. The baseline and lyrics are my favourite aspects, but everything else is amazing as well. I'm glad that not many people understand how important it is, because it's like something that's just for me, like a little secret. I have such a connection with music, like my dad. I might not have the variation of taste that he does, but the music I love never leaves me. I've never changed my opinion of a bands album or song- if they've changed their image that's different- but I really genuinely love the feeling music can give me. My music taste defines me, it is one of the most important things in my life, and it really upsets me when people just don't rate it as such an important thing, it saves lives. Honestly, so many letters are sent into musicians telling them that they were suicidal but their songs saved them.
I feel so lucky to be privileged to have the spiritual connection I do with music. I really pity people that don't understand how amazing it is.
