Sideways--Citizen Cope

"You know it ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There's no words to describe it
In French or in English

`cause diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you

These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me

These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away"

 
Loneliness--Annie Lennox

Loneliness...
It's a place that I know well.
It's the distance between us
and the space inside ourselves.
And emptiness...
Is the chattering in your head.
It's the call of the living
and the race from life to death.
And I know-
yeah, I know-
what you feel...

And I've got a longing
that's hard to find-
won't give me no peace of mind.
Something that I've lived with all along.
Days and weeks and months and years,
fillin' in the time, my dear-
tryin' to find the place where I belong.

Hopelessness...
Is the darkness of your heart.
It's the sound of one hand clapping
while it's pulling you apart.
And I know-
yeah, I know-
what you feel...

And I've got a longing
that's hard to find-
won't give me no peace of mind.
Something that I've lived with all along.
Days and weeks and months and years,
fillin' in the time, my dear-
tryin' to find the place where I belong.

And I've got a hunger
that's hard to fill-
drivin' me on overkill.
Tellin' me that everything's gone wrong.
Got me a need
that I can't break-
more than I can hardly take.
Somehow I keep on going strong.
 
Dr Hook Kiss it Away

There's a shadow on the sun I see it risin'
Kiss it away, kiss it away
And there's a hurt down deep inside that I been hidin'
Kiss it away, kiss it away
Now the hard times we been through
Oh babe we'd never mind them
We'd just kiss 'em away, we'd just kiss 'em away
And now I'm lookin' for the good times I can't find them
Must have kissed them away, guess we kissed them away

I keep thinkin' the sun will shine once more
I'm never ready for the sudden rain
Don't tell me I'm wrong, 'cause I've been told
I'm so wet and cold
Come kiss away my pain

You keep hopin' things'll change and I keep tryin'
One of these days, maybe one of these days
But there's a coldness in the air like somethin' dyin'
Kiss it away, kiss it away
 
Bring The Monster Inside - Willard Grant Conspiracy

It's midnight, hundred degrees. Ran across the south land again. Out in the back yard, backed up to the church, lit up like skeletons. But don't remember why I called, don't remember much at all. Late at night, wrong or right feels like I'm drinkin' again. It's a shore behind our eyes, it's a thousand killer watt light show. It's a trickle the optic nerve, spasm, memories. It's a fiction, of comfort. It's a means to an end. Call the monster inside tonight, it's a mean way to end. It's a fiction, of comfort. It's a means to an end. Call the monster inside tonight, it's a mean way to end. It's a mean way to end. A monster inside to night, it's a mean way to end, it's a mean way to end.

You Don't Have To Be Afraid - Kaki King

You don't have to be afraid of the pain inside you.

Waste Of What Your Kids Won't Have - Sufjan Stevens

Mad he was inward, break her barn, back door. When the water rushed and poured, took the relatives she stored. So the Father Ghost and Lord, took the revelation stored. It's a waste of money spent and given, it's a waste of what was, when forgiven. And your children burn their backs in bed, it's a waste of what your kids won't have. When the man took his gun, put it on your youngest one. Took the curtains off the glass, took the virgin for what she has. It's a waste of money spent and given, it's a waste of what was, when forgiven. And your children burn their backs in bed, it's a waste of what your kids won't have. It's a waste of what your kids won't have, it's a waste of what your kids won't have.

Trophy - Bat For Lashes

The trophy that I made for us in fur, and gold. Got into the wrong pair and truth was sold, the bought it for so much less than it was worth. And every man that touched it found a heaven on Earth. Heaven is a feelin' I get, in your arms. Heaven is a feelin' I get, in, your arms. Heaven is a feelin' I get in, your arms. Heaven is a feelin' I get in, your arms. The queens and the court jesters clapped adored, their hearts swelled to overdrive and mercy soared. Mercy this and mercy that, let justice prevail. I just want my trophy back, it's not for sale. Creatures of mercy, shoot shoot, shoot them down inside me free. When I got my trophy back it took some time, to polish it, to go through black and shoot the line. When I put it back inside I locked the door, a trophy of mercy is a trophy no more. heaven is a feelin' I get in your arms, heaven is a feelin' I get in your arms, heaven is a feelin' I get in your arms, heaven is a feelin' I get in your arms.

Ghost Of The Girl In The Well - Willard Grant Conspiracy

I'm the ghost of the girl in the well, killed by a man who owned my family. It's been many years since I fell, still no one has found me. I was fourteen years old when I died, the earth had just turned and the fields were alive, so alive. Mister called out to me and I ran, I didn't want to be under him anymore. I'm the ghost of the girl in the well, I was trying to hide when my fingers slipped. In the darkness I cried and I cried, all my tears taken by the water. I'm the ghost of the girl in the well, killed by a man who owned my family.
 
Telepathic Desert - Diane Cluck

Did you receive my love across the telepathic desert? Switchboards are corroding in the micro-ranging waves, did you receive my love across the telepathic desert? A million signals singe for every syllable that's saved. Today I sent you love, I wonder if you will receive it. They shoot it down so often, I have watched it and believe, that if it never reached your mind. And it fell short your heart, it's fallen to the desert floor where scorpions and sun torched and stung it all apart. Do not misunderstand me, I see the desert beauty. The cactus flower blooming from the bleaching of the bones, but this used to be a river. Till misappropriated by electrical confusion, and the frying of the phones. Frequencies ranging through arcs of extra signal, yardage and miles of interfering stuff. Invisible scribblings override the tired air, with an ever-present static so the traveling is rough. It stumbles over distances but I have sent enough, the atmosphere unraveling till you receive my love.

Joga - Bjork

All these accidents that happen. Follow the dot, coincidence makes sense only with you. You don't have to speak, I feel. Emotional landscapes they puzzle me, then the riddle gets solved. And you push me up to this. State of emergency, how beautiful to be. State of emergency, is where I want to be.
 
Animal I Have Become - Three Days Grace

I can't escape this hell
So many times I've tried
But I'm still caged inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can't control myself
So what if you can see the darkest side of me
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal!
This animal, this animal

Monster - Skillet
It's hiding in the dark
It's teeth are razor sharp
There's no escape for me
It wants my soul,
It wants my heart

Setting Fire To The Third Bar - Snow Patrol
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms

Breakin' The Habit - Linkin Park
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

Every Day Is Exactly The Same - Nine Inch Nails
I believe I can see the future
Cause I repeat the same routine
I think I used to have a purpose
But then again
That might have been a dream
I think I used to have a voice
Now I never make a sound
I just do what I've been told
I really don't want them to come around
Oh, no
Every day is exactly the same
Every day is exactly the same
There is no love here and there is no pain
Every day is exactly the same
 
Out of the Blue

A new beginning
A new chapter of my life
Started the day
When I thought
It could be my last
My eyes were wide shut but I hadn't given up
Just thought I'd be walking the world alone

Keep holding on

You're not alone
Together we stand
I'll be by your side, you know I'll take you're hand
When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in
No I won't give in

Keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it though, we'll make it through
Just stay strong

These are both songs I listen to when I'm struggling, to try and keep some hope that one day things will seem better!
 
Stone Sour - Through the glass.

Slipknot - Snuff.

Anenged sevenfold - Afterlife, So far away, Seize the day, Nightmare.

Linkin Park - Easier to run, Numb, Pushing me away, In the end.

Lacuna Coil - Spellbound, Heavens a lie.

And oddly these stand out a mile from the rest but Pasty Cline- Crazy and Crystal Gayle - Don't it make my brown
eyes blue.

All great songs, music is my companion in life it gets me through so much.
I'd rather listen to music than do anything else it has a gateway to my soul.:tup:
 
Hello,

I have found refuge on music, I did study classical and modern music for 5 years. I can play a variety of instruments.
The musicians that I have gravitated towards have a great repertuar of lyrical understanding.

Jack's Mannequin: Album: Everything in Transit

Dark Blue

The Mixed Tape
As I'm swimming through the stereo
I'm writing you a symphony of sound
Where are you now?
As I rearrange the songs again
This mix could burn a hole in anyone
But it was you I was thinking of

Bruised

Album: The Glass Passenger

Hammers & Strings (A lullaby)
My friend calls me up With her heart
heavy still She says, "Andy the doctors,
Prescribed me the pills, But I know I'm
not crazy I just lost my will, So why am I,
Why am I, Taking them still?"



The Resolution
I'm alive But I don't need a witness
To know that I survived I'm not

looking for forgiveness Yeah, I just
need light I need light in the dark as
I search for the resolution


Swim

This two albums are really important to me they kept me swimming when I wasn't sure to survive.​

 
"Stop & Stare" by One Republic

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see

They're trying to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
Something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, you don't need

What you need, what you need...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see...
