Inspiration

[an0therface]

Sounds corny but bare with me. I haven't posted here much for a while(or at all really), but have been reading a bit and haven't seen any threads like this so I thought I'd give it a shot.

What are the most truly inspirational songs to you and how(what is it about them) do they inspire you or make you feel? Try and post relevant lyrics.

For me this is definately Driving Home by Hot Water Music.

The lyrics are really relevant and powerful to me at the moment, seen as I'm a bit lost and confused at the moment.

"we can take the hits and grow tougher,
collect ourselves to live longer,
and find there is no need to be afraid,
because we all have more to offer,
when we struggle to cope with,
whatever it takes to make the days,
we all have what it takes to make it home"

Memories of the times you had
That's the way you see yourself
You fight for your rights
You fight to survive
You come into this world with nothing except yourself
You, you leave this world With nothing except yourself
Do what you want And how you want it
Feel it's right, go out and do it
Think for yourself and think for the best
Or you'll go down just like the rest
You come into this world With nothing except yourself
You, you leave this world With nothing except yourself

here i drown in artificial light, in a cluttered room,
which has never really felt like mine.
and outside, the sun is rising
which i know by feeliing,
not by sight.
i stare straight ahead and i feel time passing.
it's tim to move out of this life and into the old.
and i try to fight it, i try to adapt,
i try to ignore the impending departure.
this chronic insomnia;
nothing but a pathetic revolt against inevitability.
a new begins and i can't imagine leaving the old.
while i know my time here ends,
your journey continues.
though you don't see it as such.
i hope that my time here has helped you to see that you must use your life to live.
i just want to sleep in your embrace, until orders for me to leave wake us. then we either drown or rise.
oh, were it only so that we could alter these facts.
usualy one has a choice but here we can't do a thing.
had we been given a chance to bloom.
but, for once, all we can blame is circumstance.

This here's a tale for all the fellas
Try to do what those ladies tell us
Get shot down cause you're over zealous
Play hard to get an females get jealous
Ok smartie, go to a party
Girls are stancin the crowd is showin body
A chick walks by you wish you could sex her
But you're standin on the wall like you was Poindexter
Next days function, high class luncheon
Food is served and you're stone cold munchin'
Music comes on, people start to dance
But then you ate so much you nearly split your pants
A girl starts walkin, guys start gawkin'
Sits down next to you and starts talkin'
Says she wanna dance cus she likes the groove
So come on fatso and just bust a move

[shane italian]

Boredoms in the bathroom shaking out the loose teeth
Sally's in the stirrups claiming her destiny
And nobody nowhere understands anything
About me and all my dreams
Lost at sea
Jack it up judy set your heart alight
Mayfair mistress of the satellites
Misspent youth- faking up a rampage
To hold off the real slaves
Paid off and staid
And what you never knew
Can never get to you
So fake it
I'll be your stumbleine
I'll be your super queen
And make you
Jukebox ****up hanging round the drugstore
No matter what you say he'll be back for more
Mommy's in the manger with the little kids
She's got her reasons, got my forgets
Of tears and idle threats
Misplaced
And no matter what they do
They can't get to you
So fake it
I'll be your stumbleine
I'll be your super queen
And make you me
Come around ruby I could never sleep alone

[Tyler]

Mari-Macs mother's makin' Mari-Mac marry me
My mother's makin' me marry Mari-Mac
Well I'm gonna marry Mari cause Mari's takin' care o' me.
We'll all be feelin' marry when I marry Mari-Mac.

I'm not in a straight edge band
I don't wear x's on my hand.
There's nothing wrong with drinking a few f.ucking beers
as long as I remain clear.
Straight edge is great when you're young
as you grow older, you learn moderation
it's not nearly as important as you think
the missing link lies in not having too many drinks.
if you don't agree with what i say, respect my opinion
i won't change.

[cuts_like_drugs]

So no regrets, and no looking back to sinking ships.

[k1ckthecat]

i'm diggin NOFX's Reeko lyrics

mr. president, please understand
it really is that bad
it won't just go away
it's just beginning
the ballots have been cast
we make like seaward rats
leave this sinking ship
leave and not look back

the things we never tried to disallow
have come back to haunt us now
with apple pie and chevrolet
we've come to see the end
we've all made this bed
now we got nowhere to lay-
dies and gentlemen
try to understand

[DaveSavesTheDay]

I thought you'd come back at least i prayed
the romance has been dead for years
but i've been too afraid to dig the grave
relief support never came
memories carry me through the day
of when we were kids
and angels came to watch us play
close my eyes just for tonight
the sun still sleeps and when she wakes
a movie that plays in my mind
remembring you helps me survive
every day a re-run of the next
i promised to stay by your side
that all would change i can't complain
another victim of the game
maybe love will find us again
for there is always tomorrow
sincerely till the end close my eyes
just for tonight the sun still sleeps
and when she wakes you'll be a memory

-When the sun sleep , Underoath

"You cannot buy love, you cannot sell feelings" - fbtmof - Hey kid. I'm a computer.

I am not sure if they really inspired me but they sure did stand out.

[fearb4]

fear b4 the march of flames has some of my favorite lyrics. As do Beloved.
"The aftermath was better than I thought it would be
But I closed my eyes so I couldn't see what would become of it
The stars, they burn bright in this evening sky
And there's not a thing standing in my way tonight
And I promise you that we will make it out alive, out alive
We're just a little bit closer now
The sea, it holds me close
Pushing against the hands that held us back
That held us back
Pushing against the hands that held us back
Should we run away or face the days we have before us?
Right through the barricades onto the shores below us
Day and night, our steps and paths are chosen for us
Let's bury the past, within the sand beneath us
And i promise you that you will never fall again, never fall again
Day and night you hold me close never letting go now"- Beloved, The Aftermath

[fan of the game]

I'm not in a straight edge band
I don't wear x's on my hand.
There's nothing wrong with drinking a few f.ucking beers
as long as I remain clear.
Straight edge is great when you're young
as you grow older, you learn moderation
it's not nearly as important as you think
the missing link lies in not having too many drinks.
if you don't agree with what i say, respect my opinion
i won't change.
