What Pj's music means to me

Pj's music, especially lyrically, is more than just entertainment to me, its been like an old friend, always there when i needed it, there with me when i raged, when i cried, it understands what i feel.
When things were bad when i was married, i would go into the spare room where i sat at a desk to draw or sew, and put on Pj amd escape.......or get away in the truck and blast it and drive too fast or put on headphones while in the same room with the man berating me or ignoring me (i am not sure which is more painful) and just escape into a place where someone else seemed to understand pain and frustration with life and the world and would rage and cry with me.
From the begining, something about Ed's lyrics, clicked, like a puzzle piece I had looked for all my life, people thru out my life kinda just never fit, perpetually giving me the confused puppy dog look, and leaving with quickness, and i would listen to Pj and i would think "eddie knows, Eddie has felt what i feel"
My faith in God and my solace in music is how i survived until i was able to escape my hell......it took me far too long to do it, but I did.... and am changing the things in me that allowed the things that occured in my marriage to happen....
and as I have grown, and changed, the lyrical content has seemed to change and grow with me, things important in my life change.... concerns and ways i deal with things change, and i would think "Eddie is changing too"
PJ's music has been like therapy for me over the last 13 years....or like that old friend that no matter how long between seeing one another, once you do, its like you never left.

"...Like an angel, I live alone
I'm not livin' what was promised
I am close but can't enjoy
Oh, I'm not dyin'
Oh, I'm so tortured, 'cause I see all
Tortured, and all I cannot do
Tortured, all I should have done....
I am far from glorified...."
