Guest Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Hi, Thanks, these are good to read. Just thought I would add a couple of songs that have helped me. "Please bleed" by Ben Harper Make me feel like a beggar Make me feel like a thief Make me feel like a battle, that cannot end in peace. Make me feel like running, as if I've lost my nerve Make me feel like crying, tears I don't deserve. CHORUS: Please bleed So I know that you are real So I know that you can feel The damage that you've done Who have I become? To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb. Is this really living? Sometimes it's hard to tell Or is this a kind of gentler ####? Turn out the lights And let me stare into your soul I was born and bled for you to hold? CHORUS: Please bleed.... Never said thank you Never said please Never gave reason to believe. So as it stands, I remain on my knees. Good friends make great enemies. CHORUS: Please bleed So I know that you are real So I know that you can feel The damage that you've done Who have I become? To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb. _________________________________________ "Sad Lisa" by Cat Stevens She hangs her head and cries in my shirt, She must be hurt very badly, Tell me what's making you sadly? Open your door don't hide in the dark Your lost in the dark you can trust me. 'Cause you know that's how it must be. Lisa, Lisa, sad Lisa, Lisa. Her eyes like windows trickling rain Upon her pain getting deeper Though my love want's to relieve her She walks alone from wall to wall. She's lost in a hall she can't hear me Though I know she likes to be near me. Lisa, Lisa, sad Lisa, Lisa She sits in a corner by the door There must be more I can tell her. If she really wants me to help her I'll do what I can to show her the way And maybe one day I will free her Though I know no-one can see her. Lisa, Lisa, sad Lisa, Lisa ______________________________________ LeeAnn One day I walk in flowers. One day I walk on stones. Today I walk in hours. One day I shall be home. Bruce C.

I’m a Survivor I was born two months to early the doctor gave me thirty days But I must've had my mama's will And Gods amazing grace I guess I'll keep on living Even if this loves to die for Cause your bags are packed and I ain’t crying You’re walking out and I’m not trying To change your mind cause I was born to be Chorus: The baby girl without a chance A victim of circumstance The one who ought a give up, but she’s just too hard headed! A single mom who works two jobs Who loves her kids and never stops With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter I’m a survivor I don’t believe in self pity It only brings you down may be the queen of broken hearts but I don’t hide behind the crown when the deck is stacked against me I just play a different game My roots are planted in the past and though my life is changing fast who I am is who I want to be repeat chorus A single mom who works two jobs who loves her kids and never stops with gentle hands and a heart of a fighter I’m a survivor But I must’ve had my mamas will And Gods amazing grace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Easyworld - Demons This is just a call to let you know There's nothing on these shiny videos And throw away your teenage magazines They sap away what little is still remaining of your self esteem ...You know Here's a day to last for a while A run toward the guns and you're out in style Here's your golden opportunity To take these things that scare the shit out of you and put them all on me ...You know Give me all your demons They don't scare me now You waste your days away on things so small These concerns are no concerns at all The demons gather round to wreck your day But let me show you this fear for what it really is and see them fall away ...And it's over Give me all your demons They don't scare me now I got to know this band pretty well and the singer saw the scars on my arms. Now whenever they play and he sees me in the audience he keeps eye contact with me and sings it to me. It's not much but it means a lot to me.

Francesca Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 Somewhere I belong by Linkin Park (When this began) I had nothing to say And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me (I was confused) And I live it all out to find That I’m not the only person with these things in mind (Inside of me) But all that they can see the words revealed Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel (Nothing to lose) Just stuck, hollow and alone And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own [Chorus] I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real I wanna let go of the pain I’ve felt so long (Erase all the pain till it’s gone) I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along Somewhere I belong And I’ve got nothing to say I can’t believe I didn’t fall right down on my face (I was confused) Looking everywhere only to find That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind (So what am I) What do I have but negativity ’Cause I can’t trust to find the way, everyone is looking at me (Nothing to lose) Nothing to gain, hollow and alone And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own [Repeat Chorus] I will never know myself until I do this on my own And I will never feel anything else until my wounds are healed I will never be anything till I break away from me I will break away and find myself today [Repeat Chorus] I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong Somewhere I belong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Amy Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 Evanescence: Bring me to life How can you see into my eyes like open doors. Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb. Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold until you find it there and lead it back home. (Wake me up. Wake me up inside. I can't wake up. Wake me up inside. Save me. Call my name and save me from the dark. Wake me up. Bid my blood to run. I can't wake up. Before I come undone. Save me. Save me from the nothing I've become.) Now that I know what I'm without you can't just leave me. Breathe into me and make me real Bring me to life. [Chorus] Bring me to life. I've been living a lie There's nothing inside. Bring me to life. Frozen inside without your touch, without your love, darling. Only you are the life among the dead. All of this sight I can't believe I couldn't see Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me I've been sleeping a 1000 years it seems. I've got to open my eyes to everything. Without a thought Without a voice Without a soul Don't let me die here There must be something wrong. Bring me to life. [Chorus] Bring me to life. I've been living a lie There's nothing inside. Bring me to life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Amy Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 Evanescence: My immortal I'm so tired of being here. Surpressed by all my childish fears. And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave 'Cause your presence still lingers here And it won't leave me alone. These wounds won't seem to heal. This pain to just too real. There's just too much that time cannot erase. When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears. When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears. And I held your hand through all of these years But you still have...all of me You used to captivate me By your resonating mind Now I'm bound by the life you left behind. Your face it haunts My once pleasant dreams Your voice has chased away All of the sanity in me. These wounds won't seem to heal. This pain to just too real. There's just too much that time cannot erase. When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears. When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears. And I held your hand through all of these years You still have...all of me I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone. But though you're still with me I've been alone all along. When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears. When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears. And I held your hand through all of these years But you still have...all of me (Edited by Amy at 6:34 pm on Mar. 21, 2003) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bailey Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 of course, everything tori...and a million more, i don't know where i'd be without music... i heard this one again for the first time tonight, it sorta struck something with me, not that it really applies to me, but i found it very inspiring. Bif Naked " I Love Myself Today " You left me like a broken doll In pieces as I took the fall for you, you dumb chump! You left me free-falling like space junk Burning up in the atmosphere of life Well I sound like a philosopher but I'm a fool who's off her rocker 'Cause I let you in my heart that one last time I've had enough, made up my mind I'm gonna get up and out and wahhh! I love myself today Not like yesterday I'm cool, I'm calm I'm gonna be okay! Uh huh I love myself today Not like yesterday Take another look at me now 'Cause it's your last look Your last look forever Well look at you you're all puffed up In that big red truck- but you're outta luck (this time) Well, that's tough 'Cause I'm on fire- too hot to touch with a chatroom full of lovers on the line Gonna step right up. Spit shine my soul I'm gonna be proud and loud and outta control! I love myself today Not like yesterday I'm cool, I'm calm I'm gonna be okay! Uh huh I love myself today Not like yesterday Take another look at me now 'Cause it's your last look Your last look forever I'm lookin' in the mirror and I like what I see: I've lost the fear & the horror that's been eating at me 'Cause being with you is like a hangman's noose I was living my life in dead man's shoes I've had enough. Made up my mind I'm gonna get up and out and wahhh! I love myself today Not like yesterday I'm cool, I'm calm I'm gonna be okay! Uh huh I love myself today Not like yesterday Take another look at me now I love myself today Not like yesterday You're dead and gone I'm gonna get my way I love myself today Not like yesterday Take another look at me now 'Cause it's your last look Your last look forever!!

Guest Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 "Just Like A Woman" Nobody feels any pain Tonight as I stand inside the rain Ev'rybody knows That Baby's got new clothes But lately I see her ribbons and her bows Have fallen from her curls She takes just like a woman, yes she does She makes love just like a woman, yes she does And she aches just like a woman But she breaks just like a little girl. Queen Mary, she's my friend Yes, I believe I'll go see her again Nobody has to guess That Baby can't be blessed Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls She takes just like a woman, yes she does She makes love just like a woman, yes she does And she aches just like a woman But she breaks just like a little girl. It's was raining from the first And I was dying there of thirst So I came in here And your long-time curse hurts But what's worse Is this pain in here I can't stay in here Ain't it clear that. I just can't fit Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit When we meet again Introduced as friends Please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry and it was your world Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes you do You make love just like a woman, yes you do Then you ache just like a woman But you break just like a little girl. Yep, That is me.....breaking apart like a little girl Charly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Echo of a Dream Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 This song makes me feel powerful Headstrong By Trapt (be safe, censored word) Circling your head, contemplating everything you ever said, now i see the truth, i got doubt, a different motive in your eyes and now i'm out, see you later. I see your fantasy, you want to make it a reality paved in gold, See inside, inside of our heads (yeah) Well now that's over, I see your motives inside, decisions to hide. Back off we'll take you on, Headstrong to take on anyone, I know that you are wrong, Headstrong we're headstrong, Back off we'll take you on, Headstrong to take on anyone, I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong. I can't give everything away, I won't give everything away. Conclusions manifest, your first impressions got to be your very best, I see your full of $#!T, and that's alrite, that's how you play, I guess you'll get through every night, well now that's over. I see your fantasy, you want to make it a reality paved in gold, See inside, inside of our heads (yeah) Well now that's over, I see your motives inside, decisions to hide. Back off we'll take you on, Headstrong to take on anyone, I know that you are wrong, Headstrong we're headstrong, Back off we'll take you on, Headstrong to take on anyone, I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong.

Guest Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 Wait for Sleep by Dream Theater Standing by the window Eyes upon the moon Hoping that the memory Will leave her spirit soon She shuts the doors and lights and lays her body on the bed Where images and words are running deep She has too much pride to pull the sheets above her head So quietly she lays and waits for sleep She stares at the ceiling and tries not to think And pictures the chain she's been trying to link again But the feeling is gone And water can't cover her memory And ashes can't answer her pain God give me the power to take breath from a breeze And call life from a cold metal frame In with the ashes Or up with the smoke from the fire With wings up in heaven Or here, lying in bed Palm of her hand to my head Now and forever curled In my heart and the heart of the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laney Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 Thanks to redline for introducing me to this song. It is absolutely incredible. Dido - Give me strength sitting in the rain alone looking at a place that's gone boarded up my memories but something's drawn me here again and i i cannot leave the past alone hoped that i would never find all the shit i left behind now i find the child in me is going to remind me that i i can't forget my past for long so take a look outside yourself and tell me what you see i can't believe that you won't see the change in me give me strength to find the road that's lost in me give me time to heal and build myself a dream give me eyes to see the world surrounding me give me strength to be only me i don't want to hear the things you say you know all you've redeemed 'cause i can't change what's come before build myself some better dreams and cast off the fear that holds me here so take a look outside yourself and tell me what you see i can't believe that you won't see the change in me give me strength to find the road that's lost in me give me time to heal and build myself a dream give me eyes to see the world surrounding me give me strength to be only me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 Band-Bad Religion Album-Process Of Belief Song-Sorrow Father can you jear me? How have I let you down? I curse the day that I was born and all the sorrow in this world Let me take you to the herding ground where all good men are trampled down Just to settle a bet that could not be won between a brightful father and his son Will you guide me now for I can't see a reason for the suffering and this long misery What if every living soul could be upright and strong? Well then I do imagine There will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more When all soldiers lay their weapons down or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns Or when the only true messiah rescues us from ourselves it's easy to imagine There will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more There will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more Yeah there will be (sorrow) Yeah there will be (sorrow) And there will be sorrow no more Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesca Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Just bought the Evanescence(Fallen) CD and the Linkin Park(Meteora) CD. I mean....like every song on those two CD's I just identify with big time. I'll try to post lyrics later, but I am at work right now. Anyway, just thought if anyone was looking for some awesome music that I'd offer a suggestion or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cira Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Ok, I don't know about healing per se, but I've listened to this song 39857389475389475 times today, just because it never fails to inspire me to believe I can do anything I set my mind to - healing included. "All or Nothing" by Athena Cage Here's the chance of life, get ready, set, fly high Above the fear of your mind, go for it. It's hit or miss, too late for you to quit. You gotta show 'em how bad you really want this, so... Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem. You gotta work to get the cream on you're hopes you must lean, From your fears, you have to ween yourself. It's all or nothing, give your everything... Are what you believe, you got to bring the heat. Set the pace, competition take the lead. This is it, all eyes on you. So stay on point and prove, that you deserve what's long overdue. Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem. You gotta work to get the cream on you're hopes you must lean, From your fears, you have to ween yourself. It's all or nothing, give your everything... My heart is still recovering, From the heartbreak of another kind, I'm still drying my tears. Getting over my own fears in my life. So I wanna make sure this time that I'm strong enough, To give it my all... Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem. You gotta work to get the cream on you're hopes you must lean, From your fears, you have to ween yourself. It's all or nothing, give your everything... Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem. You gotta work to get the cream on you're hopes you must lean, From your fears, you have to ween yourself. It's all or nothing, give your everything... Live your dreams, it's not as hard as it may seem. You gotta work get the cream on you're hopes you must lean, From your fears, you have to ween yourself. It's all or nothing, give your everything... You gotta live your dreams, So don't you be afraid. Just set the pace, and take the lead, It's your time to shine. please believe...

Cira Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Wow, look at that. I started a whole new page. Great - I might need it. lol Just to prove my musical diversity (or perhaps freakishness, depending on your perspective), I'm going to post the lyrics to one of the other songs I've been listening to obsessively. Hopefully it's not a repeat. "Bring On The Rain" by Jo Dee Messina Another day has almost come and gone Can’t imagine what else could wrong Sometimes I’d like to hide away somewhere and lock the door A single battle lost but not the war (‘cause) Tomorrow’s another day And I’m thirsty anyway So bring on the rain It’s almost like the hard times circle ‘round A couple drops and they all start coming down Yeah, I might feel defeated, I might hang my head I might be barely breathing - but I’m not dead Tomorrow’s another day And I’m thirsty anyway So bring on the rain I’m not gonna let it get me down I’m not gonna cry And I’m not gonna lose any sleep tonight So bring on the rain.

Laney Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 I'm in love w/ the newest Matchbox20 CD here are some of my favorite songs: <b>Unwell</b> all day staring at the ceiling making friends with shadows on my wall all night i'm hearing voices telling me that i should get some sleep because tomorrow might be good for something hold on i'm feeling like i'm headed for a breakdown i don't know why i'm not crazy i'm just a little unwell i know right now you can't tell but stay awhile and maybe then you'll see a different side of me i'm not crazy i'm just a little impaired i know right now you don't care but soon enough you're gonna think of me and how i used to be see me talking to myself in public and dodging glances on the train i know i know they've all been talking 'bout me i can hear them whisper and it makes me think there must be something wrong with me out of all the hours thinking somehow i've lost my mind [chorus] talking in my sleep pretty soon they'll come to get me they'll be taking me away <b>Could I be you</b> something is wrong with the sum of us that i can't seem to erase how can i be the only one without a smile on my face when now you're laughing out loud at just the thought of being alive and i was wondering could i just be you tonight you show your pain like it really hurts and i can't even start to feel mine and i'm standing in place with my head first and i shake i shake i shake and i see your progress stretched out for miles and miles and you're laughing out loud at just the thought of being alive and i was wondering could i just be you tonight this is the sound that i make these are the words i chose but somehow the right thing to say just won't come out cuz you're laughing out loud at just the thought of being alive and i was wondering could i just be you tonigiht i was wondering could i just be you tonight <b>The Difference</b> Slow dancing on the boulevard In the quiet moments while the city’s still dark Sleepwalking through the summer rain and the tired spaces You could hear her name when she was warm and tender And you held her arms around you There was nothing but her love and affection She was crazy for you Now she's part of something that you lost [Chorus] And for all you know This could be The difference between what you need And what you wanna be Yeah, what you wanna be Night swimming in her diamond dress Making small circles move across the surface Stand watching from the steady shore Feeling wide open and waiting for Something warm and tender Now she's moving further from you There was nothing that could make it easy on you Every step you take reminds you that she's walking wrong [Chorus] Yeah, for all you know This could be The difference between what you need And what you want Every word you never said Echoes down your empty hallway And everything that was your world Just came down <i>Day breaking on the boulevard Feel the sun warming up your second hand heart Light swimming right across your face And you think maybe someday, yeah Maybe someday</i> [Chorus] For all you know Yeah, this could be The difference between what you need And what you want Yeah, for all you know For all you know Yeah, for all that you know This is what you wanna be Girl, what you wanna be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 29, 2003 Share Posted March 29, 2003 This might *T* for religion... This is a song that has helped me immensly in my healing and also in my faith, because when things are going poorly in my healing, I tend to lash out at God... and this song reminds me that no matter what I do or say to God, God will always be there for me to pick me up when I'm down... Every Time I Fall by Jaci Velasquez Chorus: Every time I fall a little bit harder Every time I fall a little bit farther Every time I fall I fall right back into your arms Every time I try To explain the reason why I have let You down I fall to the ground What is it You see in me That makes You believe No matter how far I stray I will still find the way Just when I think I'm not strong enough You reach out to me and You lift me up Repeat chorus Time and time again When I think I've reached the end It's Your voice I hear That draws me near I don't know what makes You stay When I act this way No matter what we've been through I can turn to You Just when I think I'm not strong enough You reach out to me and You lift me up Repeat chorus You find the beauty in my imperfections The guiding light in all my misdirection And when I think You've finally given up You fill my heart with unconditional love Every Time I fall I fall back in Your arms And, another one that is meant to be religious, but I also think of everyone here when I hear this song. Lean on Me by Kirk Franklin This is for that little child with no father For that man that doesn't have a place to stay For that little boy living with AIDS Can I tell you a story, tell you a story You can lean on me There's a man Standing on the corner He has no home He has no food And his blue skies are gone Can't you hear him cryin' out And there's a girl Searching for a father and a friend Praying that the storm someday will end But instead of walking away Open up your heart and say (Chorus) I am here You don't have to worry I can see your tears I'll be there in a hurry when you call Friends are there to catch you when you fall Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me Oh, there's a child Who is sick and begging to be free But there is no cure for his disease He looks up to his mother as she holds his hand Prayin' that someday The sun will shine again And the pain will end (Repeat chorus) I left out the last half of that one, because this first half of the song is really what the song is all about.

Cira Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 Allright, I know you're going to laugh your ass off if you see this, Amy, but I've been listening to this song obsessively ever since we were talking about it the other day. "Road to Nowhere" by Ozzy Osbourne I was looking back on my life, And all the things I've done to me, I'm still looking for the answers, I'm still searching for the key, The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me, It just won't leave me alone, I still find it all a mystery. Could it be a dream? The road to nowhere leads to me. Through all the happiness and sorrow, I guess I'd do it all again, Live for today and not tomorrow. It's still the road that never ends. The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me, It just won't leave me alone I still find it all a mystery, Could it be a dream? The road to nowhere leads to me. Ah Ah The road to nowhere's gonna pass me by Ah Ah I hope we never have to say good-bye. I never wanna live without you. The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me It just won't leave me alone, I still find it all a mystery Could it be a dream? The road to nowhere leads to me.
