Most meaningful song or lyric and why?
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.

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

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.

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

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.
