The song “You Only Live Once,” by Suicide Silence changed my life in a negative way because I took the song lyrics too literally. The refrain goes, “You only live once, so just go fucking nuts.” When I got my driver’s license in 2011, I loved to speed. I was completely sober when I rolled a car multiple times at 100 mph. This car crash changed my life in that I had to repeat a year of high school due to the school I had missed in recovery, and I spoke impulsively for eight years afterwards. This damaged my relationships with my loved ones to an extent that I am still trying to repair them.
