System of a Down has long been one of my favorite bands to listen to. When it comes to thier music, it is more a love for rock that draws them to me. Though one of thier song does hold some meaning, and brings me back to a time in my life that i will never forget. Lonely Day by System of a Down is a much more mellow song than the rest of the album and can really stir up my emotions when i hear it.

Last year, on march 15th, my grandparents were in a severe car accident in which my grandmother was killed instantly and my grandfather was sent to the E.R. in critical condition. My grandfather ended up dieing later that night from a stroke that he had suffered. I was very close with both of my grandparents and for me this was an extremely tragic event.

With lines like "Such a lonely day, Shouldn't exist, It's a day that I'll never miss", it always strikes an emotional chord and brings back memories of this day. I get reminded of the pain that i went through after the accident and how i had to grow as a person to deal with what happened.
