Numb

Linkin Park

I’m tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface

I don’t know what you’re expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

I’ve become so numb

I can’t feel you there

I’ve become so tired

So much more aware

I’m becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

Can’t you see that you’re smothering me?

Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control

’Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

And I know

I may end up failing, too

But I know you were just like me

With someone disappointed in you

Alcohol is more dangerous than heroin

A recent study in the UK has found out that alcohol is,surprisingly, more dangerous than heroin or crack. Scientists examined 20 drugs and their effects on people and society. While heroin and crack were considered to be very harmful to individuals, heroin, alcohol and cocaine are the worst for society. The study found out that alcohol had the worst overall effects. The study also said that tobacco was at least as harmful as cocaine. Ecstasy, LSD and marijuana were considered to be the drugs that cause the least damage. Substances were marked from 0 to 100 on a scale. Alcohol received 72, the highest rating, while heroin was rated at 55 and crack at 54.

Researchers looked at 16 factors in their study, including a drug’s effect on the brain and body, how it affects the crime rate as well as the costs for the economy. Although cocaine is more addictive, alcohol is the most harmful drug our society because it is most widely used. It does the most damage to the world around us.

Alcohol is drunken by a large part of the population as a social drink. It makes you happy and loosens you up. When it enters the brain it produces a chemical called dopamine. This makes you feel happy and without stress. However, too much alcohol consumption can lead to the destruction of almost all parts of your body. People who drink alcohol are more likely to drive in a drunken state or commit violent acts. The World Health Organization estimates that alcohol causes about 3 million deaths every year, including suicides, car accidents and heart and liver diseases.

Banning alcohol is not the same as forbidding LSD, cocaine or other drugs. It is part of our culture, but the report concludes that governments should do more to educate the population and point out the dangers of alcohol consumption. Especially younger people are at a high risk. They like to combine energy drinks with alcohol. These alcopops taste good but contain a lot of alcohol and are high on calories, which leads to obesity.

Mother-of-one left ‘disgusted’ by what she found when biting into her Chinese takeaway

A mother-of-one was left disgusted after she bit into her Chinese takeaway and found what she claims was an earring in her rice.

Abbie Lee was eating fried rice when she felt something hit her tooth before she pulled out a heart-shaped stud out of her mouth.

The 21-year-old from Denbighshire, North East Wales, had even fed some of the rice to her 10-month-old daughter before making the grim discovery, the Daily Post reported.

She explained she had ordered the takeaway on a Saturday night with her partner from the Ocean City in Rhyl.

“I was eating my Yeung chow fried rice. I felt something hard against my tooth”, she said. “When I realised what it was, I was horrified and disgusted. It’s been in someone’s ear and was in my food which then went into my mouth. I couldn’t eat any more after that. It put me off my whole meal so we ended up throwing it all in the bin”.

Abbie said she called the takeaway to complain and asked for a full refund.

But, when the delivery driver returned to the address, she says she was only given £4 to cover the cost of the rice.

“When I called up to complain, I spoke to a man who was very rude and refused to give me my money back in full”, she said.

He even said he wanted the earring back after I’d been given a refund of £4.

“I was so appalled that I contacted the Food Standards Agency and Denbighshire Council’s hygiene department”. “This has put me off Chinese food for life”.

TEXTO:

All for one and one for all is what we all should be.
But instead we go and fight each other.
Now, that wasn’t meant to be.
You know, the sun is there to light the day.
[5] The night is lit by the moon.
If we don’t come together, my brother, it all can end

[very soon.

It’s your world now.
The future is plain to see.
(Sing it, yeah. Sing it, yeah, yeah, yeah.).
[10] Give love right now.
We need the harmony.
