The Anthem of your life

What's the anthem of your life?

If you had to pick one song to describe your life, or the current stage of your life, what would it be?

Mine would be "Thoughtless" by Evanescence (Korn cover), pretty much describing the last....dunno.....10 years of my life perfectly.



All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be bound by your thoughtless scheming
Now, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
pushing all the mercy down, down, down
I’ll see you try and take a swing at me
Come on, gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground

Why are you trying to make fun of me
You think it’s funny, what the fuck you think it’s doing to me
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying while your dirty assed infront of me

All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be bound by your thoughtless scheming
Now, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
I’m above you, smiling at you drown, drown, drown
I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me
I’ll pull the trigger and you’re down, down, down

Why are you trying to make fun of me
You think it’s funny what the fuck you think it’s doing to me
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying while your dirty assed infront of me

All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be bound by your thoughtless scheming
Now, you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

All my friends are gone they died
They all screamed and cried
I’m gonna take you down
Gonna take you down
.......
 
San, awesome ass thread.


mine is Drive by Incubus.

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear
Take the wheel and steer
It's driven me before
And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal
But lately I'm beginning to find that I
Should be the one behind the wheel

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive?
It's driven me before
And it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around
But lately I'm beginning to find that
When I drive myself my light is found

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

Would you choose water over wine
Hold the wheel and drive

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes yeah

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there

for right now...Van Morrison Enlightenment

Chop that wood
Carry water
What's the sound of one hand clapping
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

Every second, every minute
It keeps changing to something different
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
It says it's non attachment
Non attachment. non attachment

I'm in the here and now, and I'm meditating
And still I'm suffering but that's my problem
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

Wake up

Enlightenment says the world is nothing
Nothing but a dream, everything's an illusion
And nothing is real

Good or bad baby
You can change it anyway you want
You can rearrange it
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Chop that wood
And carry water
What's the sound of one hand clapping
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

All around baby. you can see
You're making your own reality. everyday because
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

One more time

Enlightenment. don't know what it is
It's up to you
Enlightenment. don't know what it is
It's up to you everyday
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
It's always up to you
Enlightenment, don't know what it is

but back in my serial wife/drama queen days this...oh yeah...definitely... :smilielol5::smilielol5:
poor little loves...theres an ex husbands of amanda club somewhere i'm sure LOL


I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
Chorus:
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing

Chorus

Just when you think, you got me figured out
The season's already changing
I think it's cool, you do what you do
And don't try to save me

Chorus

I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way
 
Just About Anything By Dido;


A thousand faces?
On a grey,grey day
?A million houses?
Under dull, dark sky?

?So much noise and?
So little time
?Oh river, run me dry

??A natural world
?With these strange men's votes
?Go back home
?And lock your door??
So much noise and?
So little time?
Oh river, run me dry??

River, run me dry
?Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry?

?Those big palm trees?
On an ocean breeze?
Pico butter?
And deep blue seas?
A thousand miles?
Of clear blue sky
?Taking time to let it pass me by??

An empty space?
To my open door?
A turning fan?
On a wooden floor?
Drift away
?In the sweet sunshine?
Welcome to this world of mine?

?Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry??

Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry?
Oh river, run me dry

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jill Scott Hate On Me



If I could give you the world?
On a silver platter
?Would it even matter??
You'd still be mad at me

If I could find in all this?
A dozen roses?
Which I would give to you?
You'd still be miserable

In reality, I'm gon' be who I be
?And I don't feel no faults?
For all the lies that you bought
?You can try as you may?
Break me down but I say?
That it ain't up to you?
Gone and do what you do

(Chorus)?Hate on me, hater?
Now or later?
'Cuz I'm gonna do me
?You'll be mad, baby?
(Go 'head and hate)?
Go 'head and hate on me, hater?
'Cuz I'm not afraid of it?
What I got I paid for
?You can hate on me

Ooh, if I gave you peaches?
Out of my own garden?
And I made you a peach pie?
Would you slap me high?

What if I gave you diamonds?
Out of my own womb
Would you feel the love in that,?
Or ask "why not the moon"?

If I gave you sanity
?For the whole of humanity,?
Had all the solutions?
For the pain and pollution

No matter where I live,
?Despite the things I give,?
You'll always be this way?
So go 'head and....

(Chorus)
You cannot hate on me?
'Cuz my mind is free?
Feel my destiny?So shall it be
 
My anthem has always been Homegrown - Wow, She Dumb...

I'm sick of playing all your stupid games
You're 17 and blonde and screwed up in the brain
Conceited, immature, confused and naive
You're pretty, pretty dumb and caught up in the scene

And I...
Wasted all my time...
Waiting here for you...
To make up your miiiiind...

I am sick of stupid girls
I am sick of stupid girls
I am siiiiick ooooof stuuuuupid giiiiirls

I am sick of stupid girls
I am sick of stupid girls
I am siiiiick ooooof stuuuuupid giiiiirls

Stop acting like you're sad, I hate to hear you cry
You're like an episode of "Days of our Lives"
If you don't get your way, you'll whine and complain

And I...
Wasted all my time...
Waiting here for you...
To make up your miiiiind...

I am sick of stupid girls
I am sick of stupid girls
I am siiiiick ooooof stuuuuupid giiiiirls

I am sick of stupid girls
I am sick of stupid girls
I am siiiiick ooooof stuuuuupid giiiiirls
Superficialistic, please go away

You're not innocent to me
You're too uppity for me
You're just a stupid girl to me
Tooooo meeeee

And I...
Wasted all my time...
Waiting here for you...
To make up your miiiiind...

I am sick of stupid girls
I am sick of stupid girls
I am siiiiick ooooof stuuuuupid giiiiirls

I am sick of stupid girls
I am sick of stupid girls
I am siiiiick ooooof stuuuuupid giiiiirls

Stupid giiiiirls
Stupid giiiiirls
Stupid giiiiirls
Stupid giiiiirls

Title: Eyedea - Even Shadows Have Shadows lyrics

Artist: Eyedea Lyrics




I stand alone
Burned every bridge over the troubled water
No longer hiding from my personality disorder
A stronger tide is coming and I've been running
trying to function fine with out my mind
climbing out this fucking corner
I was born a thorn away from the rotten petals

A forgotten rebel

Passed through the absence of parentally hands
to develop an evident level of benevolence
so it's probably better I sold my sold to the devil
This is a message to anyone I met that thinks they know me
Don't pretend to understand any of the issues that I'm holding
I was in a rush to grow up, look Mom no cuts
Just a stomach in disgust, and the fear

that I might go nuts this year
If I don't swell up I'll see you one my way
One day this shit'll kill me but I guess that it's OK
I've lost all fate in a world so full of hate
I don't fucking love music I just use it to escape
I'm caught between wanting to punch someone in the face
and putting a bullet in my head to leave the human race
Everything takes its toll but there's no tolls I can take
I haven't yet found a good reason to be awake
Introducing the corroded bumps I had behind my smile
I'm angry at the universe for the way she treats me now
And keeps me down, stealing all my energy
I'm feeling like my enemy, concealing my identity
Not dealing with my tendencies
I peel the skin and then I squeeze
The real imprinted Hanse's disease
Not human in this century, I'm ill until the entity
Who built this penitentiary, It's filthy as a centipede
And guilt was in his sense cause he was willing to

just let me breathe, While I wore a game face
In 10 years don't check for me I'll be in the same place
This planet is just an overpopulated mental hospital
Each zombie walks around constitutes another obstacle
So here it is I'm finally coming out my shell
All 19 years of my life have been in conflict with myself
I'm insecure by every facet of the existence
From my addictions, to the conditions I choose to live in
Who you kidding I suffer from excess anxiety
A product of pollution in American society
Stare into my eyes and see the hell that burns inside my mind
and I no longer have an ego I can hide behind
but I've been trying disregarding my insanity
Every form of hurt isolates me from humanity
But it's provoked against being force fed
so Fuck education for a decade and 3 years

of headaches from my peers
Cause now I realize I could have learned more on my own
They taught me how to know everything except my soul
Which is everything I need to grow
Everything that keeps me whole
Everything that ever meant anything to Eyedea
So I leave with golden hope
to rip the beast that holds my focus
but the fact remains the same, I'm still bound by chains
It doesn't matter if your chain is 10 ft or 100 ft
The fact remains the same, you're still bound by chains
So people say I've changed, and it's harder to relate to me
Good, I never liked you our friendship was make believe
I'm peeling the mask back and revealing the rap thespian
Feeling my organs drilling distorted short portions
of morbid acid keeps the torture unfortunately crafted
interests to orbit my portrait and inflict my image with disorder
The minutes get shorter, the walls start to close in
Feels like the brain is hanging on but with clothes pins
I've hidden in the darkness for too long
I make it look all right but in the inside its so wrong
I want life to change but I don't know if it can
for a man or machine or whatever the fuck I am
I stand alone burned every bridge over the trouble water
No longer hiding from my personality disorder
You want to die in my life then come and stay
in madness' favorite little corner
Cause even Shadows have Shadows
and my secrets are eating me eagerly feeding

I scream in my dreams Away but they keep on defeating me
Even Shadows have Shadows
Welcome to the dusty subconscious of an actor
Who murdered his childhood to stop the audience's laughter
Even Shadows have Shadows
I'm about to break free from my fears
When I don't like what I see

and I can't feel what I hear
Even Shadows have Shadows
So don't judge a book by it's cover
Cause my story is fucked up as any other!
 
for now

samantha mumba - Don't Need You To Tell Me I'm Pretty

-----------------------------

I don't need you to
Tell me i'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
I don't need you to
Give me your strength to make me feel i'm strong
I got all of this strength that I need here
inside my own two hands
All that I want is your love and respect for who I am
What I really need
Comes from deep inside of me

Don't need you to tell me i'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
Don't need you to make me strong cuz i'm strong all on my own
Doesn't come from outside
This beauty I know
Comes from inside my soul

Don't need you to tell me I'm pretty

I don't need you to
Believe in me to make me know im worth believing in
I don't need you to
Lift me up high to know I can stand tall ( I can stand tall)

I can stand my own ground
I can stand proud upon my own two feet
Don't have to be part of somebody else
To be complete
What I really need
Comes from deep inside of me

Don't need to come to you for...confirmation
Because I finally found too...this revelation
What I really need ( what I really need)
Im gonna find inside of me (find inside of me)
Not in somebody else
Respect...comes when you respect yourself

Don't need you to tell me i'm pretty to make me feel beautiful
Don't need you to lift me up, i can stand up on my own
Doesn't come from outside
This beauty I know (I know)
Comes from inside my soul

Don't need you to tell me i'm pretty to know i'm beautiful

Nice songs everyone!

Mine would have to be either Hate on Me by Jill Scott (This is describing most of my life. Sooo many haters. So many people tried to tear me down for whatever reason.)



Or it would have to be Jill Scott - Golden, cuz that's how I view the period of my life right now. I have experienced the death of my dad in the last two years, and the death of my best friend. So much lost and grief. But I am still here. I am blessed. And I am beautiful. And I want to live my best life.
