Gutless

Live Through This is the second studio album by the American alternative rock band Hole, released on April 12, 1994, by DGC Records. Recorded in late 1993, it departed from the band's unpolished hardcore aesthetics to more refined melodies and song structure. Frontwoman Courtney Love said that she wanted the record to be "shocking to the people who think that we don't have a soft edge", but maintain a harsh sensibility. The album was produced by Sean Slade and Paul Q. Kolderie and mixed by Scott Litt and J Mascis. The lyrics and packaging reflect Love's thematic preoccupations with beauty, and motifs of milk, motherhood, anti-elitism, and violence against women, while Love derived the album title from a quote in Gone with the Wind (1939).

Shut the door, you don't have to see me
Wrapped in a sheet of idle self-pity
Don't want you to see me half-dead on the floor
My screaming is muffled, my eyes have been dried

And it feels like a fever
That I rarely wake from

Don't think that I hate you, I'm dying to see you
But it feels like if I leave I'll be swallowed whole
I wanted to go to the show but my fears are too large
I'm too little to fight them

I know you don't get it
I wish I did too

This is the breaker, it tears you apart
It blacks out your blood and drains your weak-willed heart
There's no friend to turn to, there's no hand to reach
Depression is far too demanding of me

So I took a hard look
At how much better you handled growing up
And how every major plan I had dissolved into dust
Living life alone and faceless, I'm ready to escape this
But I feel like a hostage

This is the breaker, it tears you apart
It tests all your passions and your sense of pride
No one here to listen, no one I can seek
Depression is far too demanding of me

Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh

I'm held hostage by me
