Most meaningful song or lyric and why?

TeriB19 · 09-22-2002, 10:28 AM

Okay, it's been posted before but this is a new forum, possibly new posters to read our old stuff. So here goes mine:
With Arms Wide Open - "We stand in awe, we created life."
Pregnant with my second child and close to my due date when I heard it for the first time. Gave me chills and tears, touched me like no song has ever done.

For me it was: "I cry out to God seeking only His decision. Gabriel stands and confirms I've created my own prison."
I heard MOP while going through a sort of spiritual crisis. I was questioning my belief in God and what the heck I was doing on this planet. I was angry about some things that had happened in my life and couldn't understand how a just God could let this stuff go on. But, it also helped me realize that some things are simply out of my control, that people have free will, and that I had to learn to accept certain things, learn from them and move on.

Please indulge me for a second one that had just as much impact as the one above: WTLF. When I first heard it I cried buckets. It was right around the anniversary of my brother's death from suicide and it just let me pour out a whole lot of hurt. I still cry sometimes when I hear it.

I am very sorry for your loss. I can see how hearing that song can be healing with a situation like that.

Dogstar · 09-22-2002, 01:31 PM

Thanks, it does help a lot. Don't know what I'd do without my tunes

Music is food for the soul.

"You see my wrist, I know your pain. I know your purpose on your plane."

It's good to know that when you feel like you are all alone, you're not.

i couldn't agree more.
"there's a piece inside us all, let it be ur friend, it will help you carry on, in the, end"
why??? because it's the truth...there are TONNES more that i can think of, but those are the main most touching lyrics for me.:P

Dogstar · 09-22-2002, 10:49 PM

I like those, too A2S... Very comforting.

hayley · 09-22-2002, 11:19 PM

yes, i agree.

and also when i am going through a rough patch, or just feeling plain down, i think of, "Children, don't stop dancing, believe u can fly, away." it makes me feel so much better.

Dogstar · 09-22-2002, 11:23 PM

Yeah, I always think of WGMB, too, when I need a little burst of hope: All that has been devastated can be re-created.

hayley · 09-22-2002, 11:26 PM

yeah, that too!

there's so so many.

Dogstar · 09-22-2002, 11:32 PM

Isn't it great?

One Last Breath
...as this related to my dark times of grief, my husband's diagnosis of lung disease and his final breath when life support was removed.

An uplifting song to me. Hold me now.
