Looking through the lyrics...

What has always struck me as amazing is the power of words

Especially put to music.

lyrics.
they have power.
to help you remember.
forget.
vent.
scream.
cry.
laugh.
or sink into nothingness.
Two songs that have significance to me, right this moment is;
  • With or without you by U2
  • Undisclosed Desires by Muse

I have my reasons. They just apply to me right now. It sounds really depressing. I guess that led me to make a list of inspiring lyrics. Just ones I could think of on the spot. I have this obsessive thing that makes me want to remember the lyrics. properly. word for word.

There is nothing worse than someone who doesnt know the lyrics a song and yet tries to sing it, please people at least learn the words.

(yes I'm talking to you young lady perched on your friends shoulders at the sound relief concert earlier this year, millions of people saw you try to sing 'love story' and you only knew the words, romeo and juliet [great effort.....puh-lease]....)

Anyway to my list, right now lyrics that inspire (well me at least)

  • When everything is stripped away will your life be just a waste of time, or will you be fine? – decemeberadio
  • Tell me I can make it through this day, I don't even have the words to pray You have been the only One who never left me Help me find the way through all my fears Help me see the light through all my tearsHelp me see that I am not alone in this – superchick, hold
  • And if I had to crawl, Will you crawl too I stumble and I fall Carry me through The wonder of it all Is you see me through – superchick crawl (carry me through)

  • Whispering lies and it hurts again... – Red, fight inside

  • My best defense, running from you, I can't resist, take all you want from me – red, already over pt.2
  • I'm here again, A thousand miles away from you, A broken mess, just scattered pieces of who I am, I tried so hard, Thought I could do this on my own – red, pieces

  • When your girl has left you out on the pavement (goodbye)
    Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
    Your reason for livings your reason for leaving
    - ABC Look of Love (80’s band)


  • Cuz when I looked into your eyes, And you dared to stare right back, You should've said "Nice to meet you, I'm your other half"
    _Relient K, The Best thing

  • You dont have to have a broken heart to know it can be broken - evermore, running

And so, that is my collection. For now at least. You probably noticed their all the same. But you know what. I dont care.

I just finished reading nineteen minutes by jodi piccout. Good read. Made me realise that me thinking less of someone can hurt me eventually.

Thats my deep thoughts for the day.

Must be off my pretties.... :)
