"But I'm a million different people from one day to the next," -Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve

This lyric reminds me of how my personality and behavior change every day to the point it is like people are communicating with a completely different person. I don't know if this is what the lyric is supposed to mean, but that is how I perceive it.

Teenage years, "i am a rock, I am an Island" by Simon and Garfunkel. Really took that to heart.

Twenties,
"Girl, you thought he was a man, but he was a muffin.
He hung around til you found that he didn't know nuthin." (The Muffin Man, Frank Zappa)

And then somewhere along the line I stopped taking music so personally. It holds the feeling and scent of a time, furnishes a mental room (so to speak) but I see the seperation between it and myself, I think. But those two really resonated for a few years each. Really stuck on Lateralus these days...
"I embrace my desire to
Feel the rhythm
To feel connected
Enough to step aside and weep like a widdow
To feel inspried to fathom the power
To witness the beauty to bathe in the fountain
To swing on the spiral
To swing on the spiral
Swing on the spiral of our divinity and
Still be a human." - Tool

Fucking stuck there.

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special

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

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

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

Oh, oh

She's running out again
She's running out
She run run run run
Run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

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

And if I wake from Dreams
Shall I fall in Pastures
Will I Wake the Darkness
Shall we Torch the Earth?
And if I wake from Dreams
Shall we find the Emptiness
And break the Silence
That will stop our Hearts?
And if I wake from Dreams
Shall we cry Together
For their Howling echoes
And restart the Night?

And why did you say
That things shall fall
And fall and fall and fall
And fall apart?
And why did you say
That things shall fall
And fall and fall and fall
And fall apart?

And shall I wake from Dreams
For the Glory of Nothing
For the cracking of the Sun
For the crawling down of Lies?
And if We fall from Dreams
Shall we push them into Darkness
And stare into the Howling
And clamber into Night?
And if I fall from Dreams
All my Prayers are Silenced
To Love is to lose
And to lose is to Die...

I'm at a point where I think every other song I hear has been written for me specifically, but that's my autistic brain for you.

With a magic ray, the sky is all blazing
An adventure is certain to start in the stars
When I'm cloud-borne
I fly through time and space
I color my existence with my imagination


—Lucia Miccinilli, "Under the Sign of Winx"
My hands
Don't wanna start again
My hands
No they don't wanna understand
My hands
They just shake and try to break
whatever peace I may find
My hands
They only agree to hold
Your hands
And they don't wanna be without
Your hands
And they will not let me go
No they will not let me go

—Leona Lewis, "My Hands"
The stories that I heard as a child kept me dreaming
Where magic runs free and stars held captive remain always gleaming
The fairytales I loved have taught me
No matter what hurdles there may be, your wish comes true
Was I a fool to trust in those lies?

—AmaLee, "Magia"

so many la dispute lyrics. but one that really gets me is:

"Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?
Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?
Can I ever be forgiven 'cause I killed that kid?
It was an accident I swear it wasn't meant for him!
And if I turn it on me, if I even it out, can I still get in or will they send me to hell?
Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?"

- king park

the delivery really makes it.

there are so many lyrics i love in general.

When I was fifteen
I thought no one would miss me, they're all just pretending
So I wrote the ending
When they say that it's not that bad
You're too young to be this sad
Makes you wanna do something that you can't take back and be
Forever fifteen
Would you have missed me at all?

- forever fifteen, mothica

Viva La Vida



I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead, long live the king

One minute, I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason, I can't explain
Once you'd gone, there was never, never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was a wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh, who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason, I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

EVERYDAY I WAKE UP,

LONELY IS A MAN WITHOUT LOVE.

EVERYDAY I START OUT,
THEN I CRY MY HEART OUT.
LONELY IS A MAN WITHOUT LOVE.

EVERYDAY I WAKE UP,
THEN I START TO BREAK UP,
KNOWING THAT IT'S CLOUDY ABOVE.

EVERYDAY I START OUT,
THEN I CRY MY HEART OUT.

LONELY IS A MAN WITHOUT LOVE.

There's many more but right now this is what I feel resonates most with me.

Drinking blood like cherry coke, I wish I had a soul
All my friends are dead, and they have left me on my own
Yeah, things would be much easier if I did not exist
Lucifer is laughing at my broken crucifix

There's no end to this nightmare
Hell is real, and it is here
Darkness is in my face
I am crying bloody tears
