-Tim Walz, governor of Minnesota, has allowed billions of dollars of Somolian fraud to occur in his state. Fake child-care and health clinics that receive millions of dollars in funding yet don't actually function, and appear to be false business fronts. -Gavin Newsom embezzled countless millions in order to "fix" homelessness which has only gotten worse under his watch, and has collected billions of dollars for a high-speed rail project over the past 10 years that hasn't seen a single piece of railway built within that time. -Nancy Pelosi uses her insider knowledge to have her husband game the stock-market to the tune of millions. -Joe Biden allowed millions of undocumented humans into the country, which has impacted social services, and has enabled the very type of fraud being exposed in Minnesota. Which begs the question, how much of this is occurring in other states too? Let me get this straight... You and I can not afford to own our own homes, but you think it...
SURVIVING HELL | SONG COMBOS - "FAREWELL MY HELL" & "SAVED BY HELL" by MILLENCOLIN
"Everybody seems so happy like they all share something I haven't felt for years." - Millencolin
"Farewell My Hell" is a sad song about someone who appears to be contemplating suicide. "What's wrong with being free from pain?" asks singer Nikola Sarcevic. "Forgive me. Life is cruel. I'm leaving you." This is the song that opens up their 2005 release Kingwood.
On the other hand, "Saved By Hell" is the closing track on their 2008 release Machine 15. While "Farewell My Hell" is a song about someone looking to say goodbye, "Farewell My Hell" is a story about a survivor. We recently discussed this song with a little more detail: link
Together, the two songs paint a re-assuring picture that whomever was stuck in a dark place has possibly found some way to cope (at least we hope so.) Transitioning from victim to survivor through the process of telling his story. "It didn't kill me then. It will not kill me now."

Lyrics:
"Farewell My Hell"
Everything will soon turn black, so here's my letter To get it off my chest Promise father, don't look back, it's not for the better I know you tried your best
Everybody seems so happy like they all share Something I haven't felt for years For long, I've tried to just hold on but now I don't care I'm closing down my thoughts and fears
Forgive me, life is cruel I'm leaving you
Hear you, little brother, me, you know I'm sorry For every high hand Give my love to mother, please, tell her not to worry I hope she'll understand
Everybody seems so happy like they all share Something I haven't felt for years For long, I've tried to just hold on but now I don't care I'm closing down my thoughts and fears
Forgive me, life is cruel I'm leaving you Yeah, forgive me, life is cruel Well, I'm leaving you
So long, don't wait for me in vain What's wrong with being free from pain? Be strong and live your lives like I never could
Farewell, let the memories be nice To hell, don't think you'll go there twice I'm well off right here, it's more than good So farewell
Everybody seems so happy like they all share Something I haven't felt for years For long, I've tried to just hold on but now I don't care I'm closing down my thoughts and fears
Forgive me, life is cruel I'm leaving you
(Leaving you) Well, I'm leaving you (Leaving you) Well, I'm leaving you
"Saved By Hell"
Trouble down on my own street Domestic violence on repeat Smashed up doors and yelling again Some say you are insane
But I don't think so, I love you When you are smiling I am too The only troubles I have are yours Please just make them end Until they find you something that cures I hide away at friends
I was saved by the bell or rather saved by hell Because it didn't kill me, no it rather drilled me To be doing well I was saved by the bell or rather saved by hell Because it didn't kill me, no it rather drilled me To be doing well
My friends look forward to Friday night While I am anxious for the weekend fights In a small apartment there's nowhere to run When chaos has begun
I hold my ears to dull the noise But I can still hear your loud voice I hide under my bed 'til it's gone Why can't you get along?
I was saved by the bell or rather saved by hell Because it didn't kill me, no it rather drilled me To be doing well I was saved by the bell or rather saved by hell Because it didn't kill me, no it rather drilled me To be doing well
I was saved by hell and now I'm doing well It didn't kill me then, it will not kill me now I was saved by hell and now I'm doing well It didn't kill me then, it will not kill me now (it will not kill me now)
It didn't kill me then, it will not kill me now (it will not kill me now) It didn't kill me then, it will not kill me now (it will not kill me now) It will not kill me now (it will not kill me now)
