Wasting away
#2
"I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost
No longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive
If you show me the way
Forever - and ever
The scars will remain
I'm falling apart
Leave me here forever in the dark"

From my favourite song of my favourite band: Give Me a Sign by Breaking Benjamin.

So many of you know i'm a huge audiophile. So ina bid to spread the joy (and pick up new tunes) I want to hear lyrics from songs that make you happy or resonate with you.

Any takers?
well this immediately makes me think of one of my all time favorite songs. it is awfully obvious (and not really new) so maybe i should not even say but i will anyway simply because it is my answer to your request. it does resonate and it does make me happy and it really works.

โ€œ...
Huh, because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
...โ€

For shits, grins and humor:

"Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way.
I can't wait to look in the mirror

Cause I get better looking each day
To know me is to love me

I must be a hell of a man.
O Lord it's hard to be humble
But I'm doing the best that I can.

I used to have a girlfriend
But I guess she just couldn't compete
With all of these lovestarved women
Who keep clamouring at my feet.
Well I probably find me another
But I guess they're all in awe of me

Who cares I never get lonesome
Cause I treasure my own company.

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way.
I can't wait to look in the mirror

Cause I get better looking each day
To know me is to love me

I must be a hell of a man.
O Lord it's hard to be humble
But I'm doing the best that I can.

I guess you can say I'm a loner

A cowboy outlaw tough and proud
Well
I could have lots of friends if I wanted
But then I wouldn't stand out from the drowd

Some folks say that I'm "egotistical"
Well I don't even know what that means.
I guess it has something to do with the
Way that I fill out my skintight blue jeans.

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way.
I can't wait to look in the mirror

Cause I get better looking each day
To know me is to love me

I must be a hell of a man.
O Lord it's hard to be humble
We are doing the best that we can."

I claim that and people just say: Yeah, right, it's precisely that ya nut! :)

Shinedown Lyrics
"What A Shame"

What a shame, what a shame,
To judge a life that you can't change
The choir sings, the church bells ring
So, won't you give this man his wings?
What a shame to have to beg you to
See we're not all the same
What a shame

its about how judgmental our society is drug addiction, mental health ect.
Donโ€™t judge a book by its cover!, get to know the person. God heaven what have you give this man his wings he is suffering but is honest and a good person.

Any time I see a post from Road to Nowhere and his ID it does make me think of the lyrics of the song Road to Nowhere from Ozzy Osbourne. At times in my life quite apt...

"The road to nowhere leads to me."

Another song that does resonate is from a French writer but best known from Roy Clark. Yesterday When I Was Young:

"Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame.
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned
I'd always built to last on weak and shifting sand.
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day
And only now I see how the years ran away.

Yesterday when I was young
So many happy songs were waiting to be sung,
So many wild pleasures lay in store for me
And so much pain my dazzled eyes refused to see.
I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out,
I never stopped to think what life was all about
And every conversation I can now recall
Concerned itself with me and nothing else at all.

Yesterday the moon was blue
And every crazy day brought something new to do.
I used my magic age as if it were a wand
And never saw the waste and emptiness beyond.
The game of love I played with arrogance and pride
And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died.
The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away
And only I am left on stage to end the play.

There are so many songs in me that won't be sung,
I feel the bitter taste of tears upon my tongue.
The time has come for me to pay for
Yesterday when I was young..."

I can identify with that sentiment. It does seem like yesterday when I was a young man and life ahead of me and for all my years alive with the exception of a few people I shared some closeness with mainly family and a handful of others over the years it would be the same if I never lived at all...

I wanna break apart my heart Glue the pieces to my car Crash it into a wall I don't wanna feel at all I wanna break apart my heart
Douse it in gasoline 'Til the fire burns clean Then flick a cigarette Like that movie con-air Doused in gasoline
And if you think you are better than me you're right There's no one to love, there's no one to trust in my life
I wanna pick up the pieces And plant them in the ground When a tree grows there I want to chop that tree down
Build it into a boat And float it in a lake And with dynamite I will explode the thing That makes me make mistakes
And if you think you are better than me you're right There's no one to love, there's no one to trust in my life
Sometimes I get so lonesome I can't breathe Sometimes I get so scared that I can't speak Sometimes I get so worried I can't hear my heart beat.
Anyway, anyway
I wanna tear out my heart And give it away To a person more deserving one day
If all I see is the worst in everything That's all I'm gonna get, that's all I'm gonna get, that's all I'm gonna get
And if you think you are better than me you're right There's no one to love, there's no one to trust in my life There's no one to love, no one to trust in my life No one to love, there's no one to trust in my life --- "Andrew Jackson Jihad - Heartilation.

It's just comforting, a bit "goofy" with music and all...while all too real, lol.

Live in this moment like there is no past
All that matters is to be who you are
Be in this moment. Judgments will not last
Urge yourself again to claim back your life

Shine through the sky
Beyond the matrix
Feel what it's like
To be divine

Shine through the sky
Beyond the matrix
Feel what it's like
To have attained Nirvana

Shine past the sky
Open your mind
Then you will be
Balanced and free
Be the master over your own energy

"I Shall Be Released"


They say ev'rything can be replaced,
Yet ev'ry distance is not near.
So I remember ev'ry face
Of ev'ry man who put me here.
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east.
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.

They say ev'ry man needs protection,
They say ev'ry man must fall.
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Some place so high above this wall.
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east.
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.

Standing next to me in this lonely crowd,
Is a man who swears he's not to blame.
All day long I hear him shout so loud,
Crying out that he was framed.
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east.
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.

Connect your thoughts, to make your mind,
To understand and try to find,
Something that makes you feel alive,

To analyze the things you doubt
You like to think, you work it out,
Hope someone' s gonna change your mind, your mind,

So we all get by, we make ourselves,
Forget our breaths and lose our minds,
Come on and make me disappear tonight,

And I' ll make myself a brand new house
Throw away all of the things I have
And you can make me feel alright, alright,

Sometimes you end where you begin,
The same excuse is wearing thin,
Have trouble making up your mind,

And you only have to understand,
There are things you've gone on, second hand, one more time,
And remember last time, don't let it pass you by,
You're still hoping, that someone' s gonna change your mind,

So you search for words you? d like to hear
From people that you think are sincere
And think about it one too many times,

And all the while, you know you' ve been here,
Before, before, before, before,
I know the last time, don' t let it pass you by,

You're still hoping, that someone's gonna change your mind,

the sunshine underground - change your mind

Mile upon mile, got no direction.
We're all playin' the same game.
We're all lookin' for redemption.
Just to pray, to say the name.

So caught up now in pretendin'
That what we're seekin' is the truth.
I'm just lookin' for a happy endin'.
All I'm lookin' for is you.

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
You came upon me, wave on wave.

I wandered out into the water,
An' I thought that I might drown.
I don't know what I was after,
Just know I was goin' down.

And that's when she found me.
Not afraid anymore.
She said: "You know, I always had you, baby.
"Just waitin' for you to find what you were lookin' for."

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
You came upon me, wave on wave.

Wave on wave.
Wave on wave.

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
You came upon me, wave on wave.

The clouds broke and the angels cried:
"You ain't gotta wipe the floor."
That's why it put me in your hands.
When it came upon me wave on wave.

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
You came upon me, wave on wave.

To fade.

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
You came upon me, wave on wave.

I would quote some of David Allan Coe's joke songs that are dirty, but probably not a wise idea. LOL Even the song titles can be something else.
