    The idea behind this thread is to share song lyrics that mean something special to you. Maybe they describe perfectly how you felt at the time you heard them, or maybe they make a statement that you completely agree with.

    You could include the whole song lyrics or just a few lines. As well as posting the lyrics, please tell us why they mean so much to you. Of course, you can comment on lyrics that have already been posted too!

    I will start off with "Elton's Song" from the Elton John album "The Fox" (1979). Music by Elton John, Lyrics by Tom Robinson. It describes beautifully the feelings of a boy who has a major crush on an older boy at school.

    I first heard this in about 1981 when I was about 17 and travelled to college once a week on the train. There was always a lad waiting on the same platform for a different train with a group of his school mates. He was around 15 I would guess, and I thought he was incredible. I couldn't take my eyes off him, and dreamed of nobody else. Of course, I did nothing about it, and the following school year he wasn't there any more. This song expressed my feelings perfectly.

    Staring all alone
    And your grace and style
    Cut me to the bone
    With your razor blade smile
    I watched you playing pool
    It's all around the school that I love you

    I love your gypsy hair
    And dark brown eyes
    Always unprepared
    For your pointed replies
    Cynical and lean
    I lie awake and dream about you

    If you only knew
    What I'm going through
    Time and again I get ashamed
    To say your name
    It's hard to grin and bear
    When you're standing there
    My lips are dry
    I catch your eye and look away

    Sitting in my room
    I've got it bad
    Crying for the moon
    They think I'm mad
    They say it isn't real
    But I know what I feel and I love you

    But I would give my life
    For a single night beside you

    I pretty sure everyone whos ever been down in life can agree with these lyrics. Powerful and sutle at the same time. Speaks to almost every closeted teen out there. "Boulavard of Broken Dreams" - Green Day

    I walk a lonely road
    The only one I that have ever known
    Don't know were it goes
    But its home to me and I walk alone

    I walk this empty street
    On the Boulevard of broken dreams
    Where the city sleeps
    And I'm the only one and I walk alone

    I walk alone
    I walk alone
    I walk alone
    I walk a...

    My shadows the only one that walks beside me
    My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
    Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
    Till then I walk alone

    Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
    Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

    I'm walking down the line
    That divides me somewhere in my mind
    On the border line of the edge
    And were I walk alone

    Read between the lines of what's
    Fucked up and every things all right
    Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
    And I walk alone

    I walk alone
    I walk alone
    I walk alone
    I walk a...

    My shadows the only one that walks beside me
    My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
    Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
    Till then I walk alone

    Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
    Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

    I walk alone
    I walk a...

    I walk this empty street
    On the Boulevard of broken dreams
    Were the city sleeps
    And I'm the only one and I walk a..

    My shadows the only one that walks beside me
    My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
    Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
    Till then I'll walk alone!

    I'd just started going out with a boy who couldn't understand what I saw in him. He had a really low opinion of himself and quite a few issues. But everytime I hear 'More Than Enough' I remember the fantastic times we had.

    I've had my ups and downs
    My share of grief and sorrow
    You exchanged all of my frowns
    For magical tomorrows.

    You're an ordinary man
    In a regal sort of way
    Even loaded down with problems
    You still brighten up my day

    So I give you my all (and I've got nothing less)
    And I love you even when times get rough
    I know you're always doing your best
    And for me....that's more than enough

    So if you pass me by
    See my smile from ear to ear
    Well, that's just the kind of happiness
    That I feel each time you're near.

    So I give you my all (and I've got nothing less)
    And I love you even when times get rough
    I know you're always doing your best
    And for me....that's more than enough​

    A song that always gets to me is Fat Boy by Jewel. Growing up—and still sometimes now—I had issues about being overweight. Whenever I feel like I'm less than I could be or that people don't give me a chance because of my appearance this song describes how I feel to a tee... and really, no matter what people say, they'll never know exactly how it feels unless they're walking in the same shoes.

    Fat Boy

    fat boy goes to the pool
    sees his reflection, doesn't know what to do
    he feels little inside and filled with pride

    oh, fragile flame
    no one sees the same
    fat boy goes about his day
    trying to think of funny things to say

    like, "this is just a game I play."
    and, "I like me this way."
    oh, fragile flame
    when no one feels the same

    hush, sleep, don't think, just eat
    your daddy's little boy
    your mama's pride and joy
    you know they love ya
    but not because they hold ya

    fat boy says, "wouldn't it be nice
    if I could melt myself like ice
    or outrun my skin and just be pure wind."
    oh, fragile flame
    sometimes I feel the same​

    I Burn by the Toadies

    Driftin' upward
    Gently lifting
    Lazy on the wind

    Rollin' over
    Turnin' slowly
    Beginning and the end

    Fire is bright
    Fire is clean
    Never so alive

    Smoke is freedom
    Flame is mercy
    I am free tonight

    And I burn
    I burn

    Stoke the embers
    Cleanse the spirit
    A prayer in every spark

    Feel the lick of
    Bad religion
    The finish and the start

    In the beginning
    We were smarter
    'n flame was heaven-sent

    Through the ages
    We got stupid
    Now we must repent

    And I burn
    I burn

    Save the ashes
    For reminders
    Stony things remain

    Tooth and bone
    unimpressive
    I have left these things

    Because fire is bright
    Fire is clean
    efficient and divine

    Tooth and bone
    Charms and dolls
    I am free tonight

    I BURN
    THE AIR
    YOU BREATHE

    I BURN
    THE AIR
    YOU BREATHE

    I BURN
    THE AIR
    YOU BREATHE

    I burn
    I burn
    I burn

    What can I say, I like fire. Well, and I like the Toadies a lot too. :grin: Oh, and sorry all the short lyrics make the post so much longer.

    The song "And So It Goes" has some of the most beautiful lyrics I have ever heard. It is by Billy Joel, and my choir sang a choral arrangemtn by the King's Singers in grade 9.

    In every heart there is a room
    A sanctuary safe and strong
    To heal the wounds from lovers past
    Until a new one comes along

    I spoke to you in cautious tones
    You answered me with no pretense
    And still I feel I said too much
    My silence is my self defense

    And every time I've held a rose
    It seems I only felt the thorns
    And so it goes, and so it goes
    And so will you soon I suppose

    But if my silence made you leave
    Then that would be my worst mistake
    So I will share this room with you
    And you can have this heart to break

    And this is why my eyes are closed
    It's just as well for all I've seen
    And so it goes, and so it goes
    And you're the only one who knows

    So I would choose to be with you
    That's if the choice were mine to make
    But you can make decisions too
    And you can have this heart to break

    And so it goes, and so it goes
    And you're the only one who knows

    Everytime I hear this song I'm moved. I dunno how to describe it...anyway, Its just about having hope and even if your world is falling apart, there is always someone who cares about you, and is willing to help you through it.

    My favourite part is towards the end, when it says:

    "...and today I will trust you with the confidence
    of a man who's never known defeat
    and I'll try my best to just forget
    that that man isn't me..."

    Relient K - Let It All Out
    Let it all out
    get it all out
    rip it out remove it
    don't be alarmed
    when the wound begins to bleed

    cause we're so scared to find out
    what this life's all about
    so scared we're going to lose it
    not knowing all along
    that's exactly what we need

    and today I will trust you with confidence
    of a man who's never known defeat
    but tomorrow, upon hearing what I did
    I will stare at you in disbelief
    oh, inconsistent me
    crying out for consistency

    and you said I know that this will hurt
    but if I don't break your heart then things will just get worse
    If the burden seems too much to bear
    Remember
    the end will justify the pain it took to get us there

    and I'll let it be known
    at times I have shown
    signs of all my weakness
    but somewhere in me
    there is strength

    and you promise me
    that you believe
    in time I will defeat this
    cause somewhere in me
    there is strength

    and today I will trust you with the confidence
    of a man who's never known defeat
    and I'll try my best to just forget
    that that man isn't me

    reach out to me
    make my heart brand new
    every beat will be for you
    for you

    and I know you know
    you touched my life
    when you touched my heavy heart and made it light​

    The song 'House Of Cards' by Madina Lake is so awesome, but the lyrics also mean a lot to me. They talk of exactly how I was feeling at that time, because I was so afraid of people finding out.

    Take a look (the best part is the chorus):

    It's late at night the worlds asleep
    And I'm trying not to think
    I take some pills cuz my mind bleeds
    I'm thinking what is wrong with me
    Because the only thing i know
    About honesty
    Is every lie i told
    That you believed

    I'm afraid, to be alone
    I'm afraid, that one day you'll find out

    And you'll be amazed
    At the secrets i keep
    You'll be amazed
    At my mouth full of lies
    I'm too afraid to come clean
    My life's still free in the house of cards

    Now i can't look you in your eye's
    Because the guilt is killing me
    I try disconnect my heart again
    Just so i can breathe
    I wanna be myself again
    But i just can't cuz

    I'm afraid, to be alone
    I'm afraid, that one day you'll find out

    And you'll be amazed
    At the secrets I keep
    You'll be amazed
    At my mouth full of lies
    I'm too afraid to come clean
    My life's still free in the house of cards

    It's such a shame what I've become
    After years of breaking down
    My whole life has come undone
    Cuz I'm trying to fake it all
    And I know that you love someone
    But that someone isn't me
    Isn't me
    No

    You'll be amazed
    You'll be amazed
    You'll be amazed
    You'll be amazed

    And you'll be amazed
    At the secrets i keep
    You'll be amazed
    At my mouth full of lies
    I'm too afraid to come clean
    My life's still free in the house of cards

    You'll be amazed
    You'll be amazed​

    There is a song by Chantal Kreviazuk (she's Canadian!) that I have got a lot of strength from over the past several months, as I've worked through some very rough times... It is a song about hope, and given the issues I'm dealing with, some of the lines really resound within me. It's really powerful - if you get a chance, give it a listen!

    I don't need to be forgiven
    I don't want your sympathy
    It's a mad, mad world
    But it's still turning

    Don't want to get too complicated
    But it gets so dark that I can't see
    It's a mad, mad world
    But I'm hoping

    I'm waiting for the sun to shine
    I'll wait until the day I die


    I'm tired of living in the shadow
    But I'm not giving up on me
    It's a sad, sad world
    But I'm still waiting

    I can't worry 'bout tomorrow
    Or what each new day's going to bring
    'Cause every dark cloud
    Has a silver lining

    I'm waiting for the sun to shine
    I'll wait until the day I die
    I'm waiting for the sun to shine
    (its a mad, mad world, Oh, I'm gona live my life!)
    I'll wait until the day I die

    I know there is already a song by Relient K but this is my song...
    I heard this song just after really unexpected broke up(Trust me. It was quite drama but that's whole different story) I was hurt and he was too. Though it's all good memories now. And this song was the only comfort to me. I used hated to hear this song because it reminds me him and all fun times and sad times but now I listen it when I need little help. Great thread:eusa_clap

    When I Go Down

    I'll tell you flat out
    It hurts so much to think of this
    So from my thoughts I will exclude
    The very thing that
    I hate more than everything is
    The way I'm powerless
    To dictate my own moods

    I've thrown away
    So many things that could've been much more
    And I just pray
    My problems go away if they're ignored
    But that's not the way it works
    No that's not the way it works

    When I go down
    I go down hard
    And I take everything I've learned
    And teach myself some disregard
    When I go down
    It hurts to hit the bottom
    And of the things that got me there
    I think, if only I had fought them

    If and when I can
    Clear myself of this clouded mind
    I'll watch myself settle down
    Into a place where
    Peace can search me out and find
    That I'm so ready to be found

    I've thrown away
    The hope I had in friendships
    I've thrown away
    So many things that could have been much more
    I've thrown away
    The secret to find an end to this
    And I just pray
    My problems go away if they're ignored
    But that's not the way it works
    No that's not the way it works

    When I go down
    I go down hard
    And I take everything I've learned
    And teach myself some disregard
    When I go down
    It hurts to hit the bottom
    And of the things that got me there
    I think, if only I had fought them

    Any control I thought I had just slips right through my hands
    While my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me
    Reprimands me
    Then and there
    I confess
    I'll blame all this on my selfishness
    Yet you love me
    And that consumes me
    And I'll stand up again
    And do so willingly

    You give me hope, and hope it gives me life
    You touch my heavy heart, and when you do you make it light
    As I exhale I hear your voice
    And I answer you, though I hardly make a noise
    And from my lips the words I choose to say
    Seem pathetic, but it's fallen man's praise
    Because I love you
    Oh God, I love you
    And life is now worth living
    If only because of you
    And when they say that I'm dead and gone
    It won't be further from the truth

    When I go down
    I lift my eyes to you
    I won't look very far
    Cause you'll be there
    With open arms
    To lift me up again
    To lift me up again​

    Well I don't really have any songs that have meaningful lyrics (to me) but my cousin who is a heavy Tupac fan showed me a song, and since I couldn't understand it very well she told me what it was saying. :grin:

    2pac - Ghetto Gospel

    Hit 'em with a little ghetto gospel

    (Chorus)
    Those who wish to follow me,
    I welcome with my hands
    And the red sun seems to last
    Into the hills of Gold
    And peace to this young warrior
    Without the sound of guns

    (Tupac)
    If I could recollect before my hood days,
    I'd sit and reminisce, thinking in bliss of the good days
    I stop and stare at the younger,
    My heart goes to 'em
    They test what they stress that they under
    And nowadays, things changed
    Everyone's ashamed of the youth
    Cos the truth look strange
    And for me, it's reverse
    We left them a world that's cursed, and it hurts
    Cos any day, they'll push the button
    And all the good men, like Malcom X and Bobbie Hunton die for nothing
    Thought that'd make me get teary, the world looks dreary
    When finally, your eyes see it clearly
    There's no need for you to fear me,
    If you take your time to hear me
    Maybe you could learn to cheer me
    It ain't about black or white cos we human
    I hope we see the light before it's ruined
    My ghetto gospel

    (Chorus)

    Tell me, do you see that old lady, ain't it sad
    Livin' outa bags but she's glad, for the little things she has
    And over there, there's a lady
    Crack got her crazy, yet she's givin' birth to her baby
    I don't trip and let it fade me
    From out of the frying pan, we jump into another form of slavery
    Even now, I get discouraged
    Wonder if they take it all back, will I still keep the courage
    I refuse to be a role model,
    I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottles
    I made mistakes but learned from everyone
    And when it's said and done, I bet this brother be a better one
    If I upset you, don't stress
    Never forget that God isn't finished with me yet
    I feel his hand on my brain when I write rhymes
    I go blind and let the Lord do his thing
    But am I less Holy?
    Cos I choose to puff a blunt, and drink a beer with my homies
    Before we find world peace, we gotta find peace and end the war in the streets
    My ghetto gospel

    (Chorus)

    "Lord, can you hear me speak,
    I paid the price for being hell bound"​

    Sugar Free by Hedley is more relatable than any other song for me. Usually.

    "Sugar Free"

    Tight Rope Walking ain't That Hard
    After Slamming Back A Few
    You're Laughing Now But It ain't That Funny
    When They Get Through With You
    Tell me we're all about failing and being wrong
    Tell me I'll never let go of you, I will never give or take you for a ride

    And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
    And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
    And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
    And I can't feel myself crying

    Standing closer ain't that bad
    With your hands upon your face
    You look too far I looked much harder
    And they lost all sense of trace
    Me and draw up colour me lost and found
    Tear me down lift me up you make me feel so god damn colder than you're bleeding eyes

    And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
    And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
    And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
    And I can't feel myself crying

    If I Never Knew You
    I'd Never Love You
    If I Never Loved You
    Then I Wouldn't Cry
    If I Never Hold You
    Then I'll never know you
    If Loving Meant Living
    Then I Wouldn't Die

    And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
    And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
    And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
    And I can't feel myself crying

    And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
    And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
    And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
    And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)

    Kill The Messenger by Jack's Mannequin

    Oh my God, this hurts like hell
    I had that dream again where
    I was lost for good in outer space
    Tell me, doctor, how to shake
    A waking nightmare that is only
    Worse when I am sleeping

    Kill the messenger
    I swear it's not me
    It's just someone I used to know
    And get to church cause you're a good girl
    And he never told you that
    And all I need from you
    Could be the thing that
    Leaves us both up here forever
    I'm gonna send a little rain your way
    I'm gonna send a little rain...

    It's not so easy, caving in
    I walked by your apartment twice today
    While you were gone at work
    And all the colors got so down
    It's not as cold out here
    But come quick, I am losing feeling

    Kill the messenger
    I swear it's not me
    It's just someone I used to know
    And get to church cause you're a good girl
    And he never told you that
    And all I need from you
    Could be the thing that
    Leaves us both up here forever
    I'm gonna send a little rain your way
    I'm gonna send a little rain, send a little rain

    I'm gonna send a little rain to pour down on you
    Rain that makes the flowers bloom
    Rain to leave you all alone
    That keeps eyelashes falling
    And wishes washed away

    Kill the messenger
    I swear it's not me
    It's just someone I used to know
    And get to church cause you're a good girl
    And he never told you that
    And all I need from you
    Could be the thing that
    Leaves us both up here forever
    I'm gonna send a little rain your way
    I'm gonna send a little rain...
    I'm gonna send a little rain your way
     
  14. I love Pat Benatar and i like her song Shadows of the Night although im not too sure why.


    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

    You said oh girl its a cold world when you keep it all to yourself
    I said you cant hide on the inside all the pain you've ever felt
    Randsom my heart but baby dont look back cause we got nobody else

    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

    You know sometimes it feels like its all movin way too fast
    Use every alibi and words you deny that love will never last
    You can cry tough baby its alright you can let me down easy but not tonight

    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end


    And now the hands of time are standin still Midnight Angel wont you say you will

    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

    We're runnin with the shadows of the night so baby take my hand it'll be alright
    Surrender all your dreams to me tonight they'll come true in the end

    It's not so very special to me in so much as it reminds me of anything or anyone, other than myself a bit.. but it made me cry when I first listened to it.

    Please, remember me
    Happily
    By the rosebush laughing
    With bruises on my chin
    The time when
    We counted every black car passing
    Your house beneath the hill
    And up until
    Someone caught us in the kitchen
    With maps, a mountain range
    A piggy bank
    A vision too removed to mention
    But

    Please, remember me
    Fondly
    I heard from someone you're still pretty
    And then
    They went on to say
    That the pearly gates
    Had some eloquent graffiti
    Like "We'll meet again"
    And "Fuck the man"
    And "Tell my mother not to worry"
    And angels with their great
    Handshakes
    Were always done in such a hurry
    And

    Please, remember me
    At Halloween
    Making fools of all the neighbors
    Our faces painted white
    By midnight
    We'd forgotten one another
    And when the morning came
    I was ashamed
    Only now it seems so silly
    That season left the world
    And then returned
    And now you're lit up by the city
    So

    Please, remember me
    Mistakenly
    In the window of the tallest tower
    Calling passers-by
    But much too high
    To see the empty road at happy hour
    Gleam and resonate
    Just like the gates
    Around the holy kingdom
    With words like "Lost and found"
    And "Don't look down"
    And "Someone save Temptation"
    And

    Please, remember me
    As in the dream
    We had as rug-burn babies
    Among the fallen trees
    And fast asleep
    Aside the lions and the ladies
    That called you what you like
    And even might
    Give a gift for your behavior
    A fleeting chance to see
    A trapeze
    Swing as high as any savior
    But

    Please, remember me
    My misery
    And how it lost me all I wanted
    Those dogs that love the rain
    And chasing trains
    The colored birds above their running
    In circles around the well
    And where it spells
    On the wall behind St. Peter
    So bright with cinder gray
    And spray paint
    "Who the hell can see forever?"
    And

    Please, remember me
    Seldomly
    In the car behind the carnival
    My hand between your knees
    You turned from me
    And said, "The trapeze act was wonderful
    But never meant to last"
    The clown that passed
    Saw me just come up with anger
    When it filled with circus dogs
    The parking lot
    Had an element of danger
    So

    Please, remember me
    Finally
    And all my uphill clawing
    My dear
    But if I make
    The pearly gates
    Do my best to make a drawing
    Of God and Lucifer
    A boy and girl
    An angel kissing on a sinner
    A monkey and a man
    A marching band
    All around the frightened trapeze swingers

    This thread is so cool. I use sings lyrics to express my feelings to people. I have tons of favorite songs. But this one is special, because my experiences are the smae as every word in it. I also hav some lyrics in my blog.

    BON JOVI
    Welcome To Wherever You Are

    Maybe we're different, but we're still the same
    We all got the blood of Eden, running through our veins
    I know sometimes it's hard for you to see
    You come between just who you are and who you wanna be

    If you feel alone, and lost and need a friend
    Remember every new beginning, is some beginning's end

    [Chorus]
    Welcome to wherever you are
    This is your life, you made it this far
    Welcome, you gotta believe
    That right here right now, you're exactly where you're supposed to be
    Welcome, to wherever you are

    When everybody's in, and you're left out
    And you feel your drowning, in a shadow of a doubt
    Everyones a miracle in their own way
    Just listen to yourself, not what other people say

    When it seems you're lost, alone and feeling down
    Remember everybody's different
    Just take a look around

    [Chorus]

    Be who you want to, be who you are
    Everyones a hero, everyones a star

    When you wanna give up, and your hearts about to break
    Remember that you're perfect, God makes no mistakes

    [Chorus]​

    I know what it is like when the only thing letting you know that you are still alive, is pain. A hurt deep down inside that even before you wake up in the morning, you are already having a bad day. I have suffered with migraines since I was young, every year it gets worse and worse, and now at 17, I am loosing my vision little by little. The only thing that is worse then a doctor telling you that you have a brain tumor or cancer, is when he tells you that there is nothing wrong at all, no explanation, no tests can validate the pain I suffer. I don’t go get high, get loose, cut myself, blame someone else, or even complain. It wouldn’t help. On top of all of this, I am a closet homosexual which some of you can relate to. But in life I can only “focus on the pain, because it’s the only thing that’s real.” This song, for me, IS the validation of pain. Pain unfortunately is a part of life, undesirable, but ever-present. But in the end, “If I could start again, A million miles away, I would keep myself, I would find a way.”


    "Hurt"

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO9dbmJ_2zU

    I hurt myself today
    To see if I still feel
    I focus on the pain
    The only thing that's real
    The needle tears a hole
    The old familiar sting
    Try to kill it all away
    But I remember everything

    [Chorus:]
    What have I become
    My sweetest friend
    Everyone I know goes away
    In the end
    And you could have it all
    My empire of dirt
    I will let you down
    I will make you hurt

    I wear this crown of thorns
    Upon my liar's chair
    Full of broken thoughts
    I cannot repair
    Beneath the stains of time
    The feelings disappear
    You are someone else
    I am still right here

    [Chorus:]
    What have I become
    My sweetest friend
    Everyone I know goes away
    In the end
    And you could have it all
    My empire of dirt
    I will let you down
    I will make you hurt

    If I could start again
    A million miles away
    I would keep myself
    I would find a way


    This is a great thread!
