Re: One song to describe your life to this point
Pressed in a Book Doted on like seeds planted in rows The untied shoelaces of your life Nutured all year then presssed in a book And displayed in bad taste at the table Problems arise and you fan the fire While there's a wild pack of dogs loose in your house tonight. Cut from bad cloth or soiled like socks Add it up and basically people never change, They just talk and make plans in the dark Or make haste with ideas that can't help But creep good people out As you talk to me too much you're assuming We don't always want what's right. Did i strike the right set of chords? You're annoyed. The goal is to ignite you then move on. You feel ill at ease. you got no squeeze. And the wise cracks won't make you more stable. You've learned you lines to scale and to time. Why must i remind you now i'm only less able. Cut from bad cloth or soiled like socks We're ordinary people we can't help but to change As we walk and make plans in the dark Or make haste with the boy who can't help But creep good people out. As you talk to me too much you're assuming We don't always want what's right. Two fallen saplings in an open field. Snow padding gently on an empty bench. An old woman's jewelry lying unadorned. Cold nesting robins allied for the first time. I know when you hear these sappy lines You'll roll your eyes and say "nice try".

Re: One song to describe your life to this point
A friend suggested this could be the anthem to my life:
Morrissey - I Can Have Both Staring in the window of the shop that never opens Planning my selection from all the treats inside Should I take as I desire - oh shall I, oh shall I ? Or should I hang around to be enticed inside ? I'm trying to explain to myself I can have both I'm trying to explain to the voice inside I can have both I can have both There's nobody around to say no Who've brain-washed the small shy boy inside He doesn't know he can have both Smiling through the window to the one who never serves you I've not been feeling myself tonight Should I take as I feel like it - well shall I, oh shall I ? Or should I wait and hope to be dragged inside ? Oh ... I'm trying to explain to myself I can have both I'm trying to explain to the voice inside I can have both I can have both There's nobody around to say no Who've brain-washed the small shy boy inside He doesn't know he can have both I can have both There's no need to choose Because I can have both There's no need to choose I can have both There's no need to choose Because I can have both There's no need to choose I can have both There's no need to choose

Re: One song to describe your life to this point
Hello?
Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home? Come on, now, I hear you're feeling down. Well I can ease your pain Get you on your feet again. Relax. I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts. Can you show me where it hurts? There is no pain you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying. When I was a child I had a fever My hands felt just like two balloons. Now I've got that feeling once again I can't explain you would not understand This is not how I am. I have become comfortably numb. O.K. Just a little pinprick. There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah! But you may feel a little sick. Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good. That'll keep you going through the show Come on it's time to go. There is no pain you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon. You are only coming through in waves. Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying. When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look but it was gone I cannot put my finger on it now The child is grown, The dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.

I believe...REM [/ QUOTE ] Late with the lyrics...but here they are When I was young and full of grace and spirited--a rattlesnake. When I was young and fever fell My spirit, I will not tell You're on your honor not to tell I believe in coyotes and time as an abstract Explain the change, the difference between What you want and what you need, there's the key, Your adventure for today, what do you do Between the horns of the day? I believe my shirt is wearing thin And change is what I believe in When I was young and give and take And foolish said my fool awake When I was young and fever fell My spirit, I will not tell You're on your honor, on your honor Trust in your calling, make sure your calling's true Think of others, the others think of you Silly rule golden words make, practice, practice makes perfect, Perfect is a fault, and fault lines change I believe my humor's wearing thin And change is what I believe in I believe my shirt is wearing thin And change is what I believe in When I was young and full of grace As spirited a rattlesnake When I was young and fever fell My spirit, I will not tell You're on your honor, on your honor I believe in example I believe my throat hurts Example is the checker to the key I believe my humor's wearing thin And I believe the poles are shifting I believe my shirt is wearing thin And change is what I believe in
