This is the second of two Life Through Lyrics posts. I intended to make it a regular feature back in March (I believe) then, well, forgot. While I'm online and signed in, I thought I'd do the second post. And I do definitely intend to make it a regular feature (and yes, you CAN hold me to that...)
Although this is copied from the original LTL post, I still feel it sums up why I want to do this:
"So, what I thought I'd do is just, well, post a bunch of lyrics that I feel sum up my life, who I am, things I want to accomplish etc. These are in no particular order (OK, that was bordering on game show host results style, apologies...), here are a random collection of little quotes, phrases, lyrics etc that I love."
"Is the reason you keep asking me to change so that you stay the same? Well I'm sorry if I keep disappointing you again and again." I Am Who I Am - Ben's Brother
"Free her mind she's always the analyst. Silent space, the culprit, the catalyst. Trying to make sense of this life." The Analyst - Delta Goodrem
"But it's a lie, it's a lie, don't you believe it. If you're fine, then you're fine - it's all how you see it." On a High - Duncan Sheik
"I love the way you hear the words unspoken. It's like you read between the minds." Between the Minds - Jack Savoretti
"And they'll say told you so. We were the ones who saw you first of all. We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars." One of the Brightest Stars - James Blunt
"It's not easy to hide when your heart's on full view. Oh, tonight, cruel world be forgiving. Oh, for once in my life I am living." Little Jack Frost - Kate Rusby
"Did you know that everything she ever does is for you? So it goes, the story of a broken heart comes true, it comes true." Story - Maroon 5
"You talk about me and talk about you, and everything I do, like it's something that needs repeating." My Interpretation - Mika
"People started talking, just to hear their own voice." Washed By the Water - Needtobreathe
"My hero cried as we stood out their in the cold, like these autumn leaves I dont have nothing to hold." Autumn - Paolo Nutini
I know this is a long shot, but I'd love it if you'd leave your own most loved lyrics in comments, or even a similar post yourself. I know I get a lot of pleasure from lyrics and I know many of you guys do too :)
Besos ♥

'Nobody knows where they might wake up, nobody knows. Nobody knows where they might end up, nobody knows. Oh, oh, suppose you'll never know'. Psapp - Cosy In The Rocket
ReplyDeleteI know it's a bit of a depressing choice, but it's always stood out to me as a lyric that makes me be realistic and see sense, because we don't know what's going to happen or where we're going to be in the future no matter how much we plan or hope.
Not a GaGa song? I'm shocked :O
ReplyDeleteHaha I was gonna go with a GaGa song, 'cause I can relate to some of them well (that may surprise you) but I thought that might be more appropriate given your vein of posts lately =P
ReplyDeleteStrangely enough I do believe you :P But yeah, it is. I almost feel like updating again with the Joshua Radin songs I've been listening to :L
ReplyDeleteGo for it ;P you've got no unhappy bloggers from what you post!
