Young Boy, Paul McCartney

He's just a young boy lookin for a way to find love
It isn't easy; nothing you can say will help him, find love!
He's gotta do it for himself, and it can take so looong!
He's just a young boy lookin for a way to find love...

"Welcome to My Life" by Simple Plan. I know, I know, Simple Plan is so damned whiney and overly-emo that it hurts, but... look at the lyrics themselves...

Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you

Do you ever want to run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like
To be like me

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over?

Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding

No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like
To be like me

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face
And no one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy
But I'm not gonna be ok
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work
It was always there
You don't know what it's like
What it's like

To be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life

I'm probably gonna have to say three major songs.

1. From Autumn to Ashes - Mercury Rising

how sad
and this is what your life has been reduced to-
A single room apartment containing no more than a mattress.
How sad when the strings have been removed from the blinds
and all the outlets have been painted over.
And the television screen is streaked with blood and smeared from your knuckles,
As if you were trying to punch it out but you underestimated the strength-
or maybe you just weren't trying hard enough.
Startled by a knock at the door, you'll rise for the first time in two days to answer
But you can only greet the visitor with one short statement.
Hello my first name is Distance and I really don't care if i never wake up again.

Second: Behind Blue Eyes. The Who.

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm; let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

Possibly also Everybody's Fool, Evanescence.

Radiohead- No Surprises

A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silent silence.

This is my final fit,
my final bellyache,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.

Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.

No alarms and no surprises,
(Get me outta here)
no alarms and no surprises,
(Get me outta here)
no alarms and no surprises
(Get me outta here) please.


The lyrics really aren't that much. The music behind it is what makes it. It's a sharp contrast between very bleak words and a very innocent, almost lullaby-like tune.

I think this song describes my life...
"My Immortal"

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed 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 is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus:]
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 light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus]

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

[Chorus]

I have more, but I can only think about this one at the moment

Hate me - Blue October

(Verse 1)
I have to block out thoughts of you, so i don't loose my head
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I'm alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you, Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face
And will you never try to reach me, it is I that wanted this

(Chorus)
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me and wait, yeah wait for it to swollow
Hate me so you can finally see whats good for you

(Verse 2)
I'm sober now for 3 whole months,
it's one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one thing that always tore us apart,
is the one thing that I won't touch again
In a sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars on myself,
you were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinoins on things like suicidal hate
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take
So I'll drive so ******** far away that I'll never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind

(Chorus)
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me and wait, yeah wait for it to swollow
Hate me so you can finally see whats good for you


(Verse 3)
And when the sad hard eyes say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I have made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I found out I can't make it go away, just make it stop
Come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered "How could you did this to me?"

(Chorus)
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me and wait, yeah wait for it to swollow
Hate me so you can finally see whats good for you, for you, for you, for you...

beautiful Kapreo crying
wow, thats new to see...

also, my next entry

Quote:
I'm not down
The clash

If its true that a rich man leads a sad life
N thats what they from day to day
Then what do all the poor do with their lives?
Have nothing to say on judgment day?

Ive been beat up, Ive been thrown
Out but Im not down, Im not down
Ive been shown up, but Ive grown up
And Im not down, Im not down

On my own I faced a gang of jeering in strange streets
When my nerves were pumping and i
Fought my fear in, I did not run
I was not done

And I have lived that kind of day
When one of your sorrows will go away
It goes down and down and hit the floor
Down and down and down some more
Depression
But I now therell be some way
When I can swing everything back my way
Like skyscrapers rising up
Floor by floor, Im not giving up

So you rock around and think that
Youre the toughest
In the world, the whole wide world
But youre streets away from where
It gets the roughest
You aint been there

Bits and pieces of songs.

Creep, by Radiohead

I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here.

I wish I were special, you're so ******** special.


Still Fighting It, by Ben Folds

Everybody knows (it hurts to grow up),
And everybody does (it's so weird to be back here).
Let me tell you what
The years go on and
We're still fighting it, we're still fighting it.


1985, by Bowling For Soup

She hates time, make it stop.
When did Motley Crue become classic rock?
And when did Ozzie become an actor?
Please make this stop, stop, stop.


Though in general Ordinary Day by Great Big Sea (has nothing to do with the Duran Duran song) best sums up how I feel about Life, the Universe, and Everything

I've got a smile on my face, I've got four walls around me
The sun in the sky, the water surrounds me
I'll win now but sometimes I'll lose
I've been battered, but I'll never bruise, it's not so bad.

And I say way-hey-hey, it's just an ordinary day
and it's all your state of mind.
At the end of the day, you've still got to say,
"It's all right."


See that girl on the street, what keeps her from dying?
Let them say what they want, she won't stop trying.
She might stumble, if they push her 'round
She might fall, but she'll never lie down

[Chorus]

It's a beautiful day, but there's always some sorrow.
It's a double edged knife, but there's always tomorrow.
It's up to you now if you sink or swim,
Keep the faith and your ship will come in.

[chorus]

Cos I've got a smile on my face and I've got four walls around me.

If it was a few years ago, this part from the song "Hang on Kids" by Ghost Mice would describe me very well:
I tried my best just to be invisible.
I was counting all my days,
I was planning my escape.
It's amazing that kids can be so cruel.


I'm glad that I managed to find a school where that's not the case.

    Tenth Dimension by B L A Z E
    S'more how I feel about the world at the moment.

    'The self appointed secret rulers of this world,
    they are hippocrites, Liars and thieves,
    Inventing god to make us fear the day of judgement,
    So dreading death we beg for life upon our knees
    '

    The chorus is good, About being lonely, I think.

    'Here I am,
    Standing in the darkness,
    Here I am,
    Surrounded by the night,
    Here I am,
    Standing in the darkness,
    Must I be,
    A stranger to the light?
    '

    Lord Of The Flies is also a good one, When I get a bit down.

    'I don't care for this world anymore,
    I just wanna live my own fantasy,
    Fate has brought us to these shores,
    What was meant to be is now happening...
    '

    Wasted Years is cool too. Bit more uplifting than the title suggests

    "So, Understand!
    Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years
    Face up! Make your stand!
    And realise that you're living in the golden years
    "

    I have a weird taste in music.

    Last two are by Iron Maiden.

Art In Me by Jars of Clay

Images on the sidewalk speak of dream's decent
Washed away by storms to graves of cynical lament
Dirty canvases to call my own
Protest limericks carved by the old pay phone

In your picture book I'm trying hard to see
Turning endless pages of this tragedy
Sculpting every move you compose a symphony
You plead to everyone, "see the art in me"

Broken stained-glass windows, the fragments ramble on
Tales of broken souls, an eternity's been won
As critics scorn the thoughts and works of mortal man
My eyes are drawn to you in awe once again

In your picture book I'm trying hard to see
Turning endless pages of this tragedy
Sculpting every move you compose a symphony
You plead to everyone, "see the art in me"
