I've learned that music and it's lyrics mean more to mean during tougher times, and one of the songs that I've felt connected to was 'How to Save a Life' by The Fray:

"Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life"

I don't know what to say. You have me all choked up. I love this song and listening to it while reading it brought so much to me. I have lost many friends but the most important is my husband and he is imprisoned as an innocent man being railroaded to protect the actions of our civil servants. I thought I had cried so much I couldn't cry anymore but you just got me to cry again. An emotion that has been building inside me that needed to get out. Thank you and God Bless. Very touching.

Yeah, The Climb song from Hannah Montana The Movie, makes me feel about my life. When I face a problem I always end up with more opposition and feel depresses but this song makes them all go away, and after hearing this song in that instance I don't feel about them. I just think that everyday there will be problems and I have to take care of it myself without looking for others help.

Yes i have a song(title of the song DON'T CRY) the singer is Seal i love this song so much just love it. In life sometimes we as human beings try to do the impossible to please others more and end up hurting our selves. Which can have negative impact on how you view yourself and life. And this applies to family,friends,lovers work etc. I have learned so much from this song. 1. Never crucify yourself for things you do not have control over.2 Never and i mean never keep dwelling on mistakes you have made especially ones against a lover. Always remember no matter what the situation your facing in life you are never alone. No matter the situation there is some one that have experienced it already and willing to share and give you advice about it. this song give me hope at a time when i was done and out thanks Seal.

Title of the song DON'T CRY (singer:SEAL)

LYRIC:
(Seal) 1994

Don't be so hard on yourself.
Those tears are for someone else.
I hear your voice on the phone.
I hear you feel so alone.
My baby.

Ohh my baby.
Please my baby,
My baby,

When we were young,
And truth was paramount.
We were older then,
And we lived a life without any doubt.
Those memories,
They seem so long ago.

What's become of them? When you feel like me I want you to know.
...They've all gone for sure...

Don't cry.
Not alone.
Don't cry,
Tonight, my baby.
Don't cry,
You'll always be loved.
Don't cry,
Tonight.
My baby.

Today I dreamed,
Of friends I had before.
And I wonder why.
The ones who care don't call anymore.
My feelings hurt.
But you know I overcome the pain.
And I'm stronger now,
There can't be a fire unless there's a flame.

Don't cry.
Your not alone.
Don't cry,
Tonight, my baby.
Don't cry.
You'll always be loved.
Don't cry oh...
Limousines and sycophants,
Don't leave me now,
'Cause I'm afraid what you've done to me.
Is now the wolf.
In my bed, (L)

In my head.
In my head.
In my head.

The challenges, we took were hard enough.
They get harder now.
Even when we think that we've had enough.
Don't feel alone,
'Cause it's I you understand.
I'm your sedative,
Take a piece of me whenever you can.

Don't cry.... you're not alone.
...don't be so hard on yourself...

Don't cry.... tonight my baby
...These tears are for.....someone else...

Don't cry.... you'll always

This must be some type of carma that I asked this question I am going through struggles maybe 100 other people have been in. The songs that have been picked couldn't be more perfect to help me through my situation. I feel there is alot about what we listen to to help us through things. I will definitely check this song out I love the wording. Thank you and God Bless.

Wow, that's great it must make you feel special. They are something that will stay with you forever. Maybe someday you could sing with your musician friends. Music sounds like a very big part of your life. It might take you somewhere if you feel ambisious about it.

Hi....this is a great question!
The song that I can relate most too is I'm Moving On, by Rascal Flatts
I have had to deal with a lot of tragedy in my life and in doing so have had to jump a lot of hurdles and make it through some really tough times and along the way I have made some choices that I would not have made if I had the chance to go back. But we don't ever get that chance so we have to learn from it and move on!

Lyrics (I'm Moving On)

I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on

Good luck in whatever it is that you may be going through and may god bless you and yours =)

Burzum - Key To The Gate

Gives me that warm cozy feeling inside :D
Starts with an assault of anger then subsides to a tranquil gloomy atmosphere.

Hi again relive2usf, glad to hear from you I haven't heard this one yet but I am going to check it out. Any song that goes from harsh to tranquility must have a great meaning to put out. Of course it does if it just make one person feel better then it was worth it. I am sure I will enjoy it. Thank you, stay safe and you are in my heart. Talk again bye.
