Somehow when I express my voice, I feel that much more vulnerable. For instance, if I used the wrong word, or if I said something and somebody could take the word and misinterpret it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I express things through characters because I have a fear that my own voice is irritating because that's been said to me.
My emotions lose their force when I endeavor to interpret them, and my words seem very inept.
I just worry because I know I say a lot, often. It doesn't bother me, it's more about the people that get affected around me.
For myself, for a long time... maybe I felt inauthentic or something, I felt like my voice wasn't worth hearing, and I think everyone's voice is worth hearing. So if you've got something to say, say it from the rooftops.
I mean, I have moments of huge frustration because of my inability to express myself linguistically as clearly as I would like to.
If you don't have a voice that forces you back to basics, you're a dangerous person. Or, to put it another way, you're at risk, and the people with you are at risk.
I always defined myself in terms of my talkativeness, and being without a voice hits me in a number of ways.
I don't really strain my voice.
I don't take care of my voice at all, which is one reason that I sound as bad as I do.
I think, when I started writing songs, my voice just became another tool. It wasn't something that I was going to try desperately to woo a listener. As long as I'm using my voice in a way that helps people understand what I'm trying to say, then I feel like I'm doing all right.
