Which songs touch you deep inside in a way that resonates with how you feel?

Me?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpgEt5ZuxT0

Smashing Pumpkins
Siamese Dream (1993)
Rocket

bleed in your own light
dream of your own life
I miss me
I miss everything I'll never be

I torch my soul to show
the world that I am pure
deep inside my heart
no more lies

a crown of thorns
an image formed deformed
the mark I've borne
a mark of scorn to you

consume my love devoure my hate
only powers my escape
the moon is out the stars invite
I think I'll leave tonight

so that soon I'll find myself alone
to relax and fade away
do you know what's coming down
do you know I couldn't stay free?

I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free free
free as the voices
it's all I need

I shall be free
I shall be free

Like me, this song is upbeat but still blues, confused and renewing itself. And if I was an instrument I hope I'd sound as sexy

John Mayer - Who Do You Think I Was?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOwt83O0Sk0&playnext_from=TL&videos=Q5NBWLLaQkE

I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues that I can't explain
Who did you think I was?

Every morning when the day begins
I make up my mind than change it back again
I am a shifter of the shape I'm in
Who did you think I was?

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was?

Am I the one who plays the quiet songs?
Is he the one who turns the ladies on?
Will I keep shining til my light is gone?
Who did you think I was?

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was?

Here is a line that you won't understand
I'm half of the boy but I'm twice the man
I carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
Who did you think I was?
Who did you think I was?

i relate to many, but this one more than most

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM7-PYtXtJM

I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Till the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Mmm, mmm, mmm

Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older and I'm getting older too

Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older and I'm getting older too
Oh, I'm getting older too

Awh, take my love, take it down
Awh, climb a mountain and turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, the landslide bring it down

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, the landslide bring it down
Oh, the landslide bring it down

THIS WOMAN'S WORK

Pray God you can cope.
I stand outside this woman's work,
This woman's world.
Ooh, it's hard on the man,
Now his part is over.
Now starts the craft of the father.


I know you´ve got a little life in you yet.
I know you´ve got a lot of strength left.
I know you´ve got a little life in you yet.
I know you´ve got a lot of strength left.


I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking


Of all the things we should've said,
That I never said.
All the things we should've done,
That we never did.
All the things we should've given,
But I didn't.


Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.


Give me these moments.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.

(2x)
(I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.)


I should be crying, but I just can't let it go,
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking


Of all the things we should've said,
That were never said.
All the things we should've done,
That we never did.
All the things that you wanted from me.
All the things that you needed from me.
All the things that we should've given,
But I didn't.


Oh, darling, make it go
Just make it go away now
Just make it go away.



..always makes me cry , especially when Maxwell sang it,,,
we spend too little time caring about others and too much wrapped up in the superficial,,,, as a woman, I feel obligated to do and be better and this song always brings that to the front of my heart

Lost my mom to cancer at 16 this song still gets to me
LIFE OF AGONY : Unstable

This cancer is killing me
As much as its killing you
If it takes you away from me
I dont know what i would do
Just try for some peace of mind
But its so hard to find
Its so hard to just sit and wait
And wait some more staring at the door
Skim through the magazines
Pretend like everything gonna be allright
Although you know it wont be

Its hard to be the one whos strong
Whos always got a shoulder to cry on
Whos got a shoulder for me
When im about to break down your never around
But maybe its better that way
Youve got enough to worry about
Youve got your hands full dont you,
Dont you see
This cancer is killing me like its killing you
Mentally

And all i really want to know is iv shes gonna be allright
Cause shes been in there a long long time
And ive been out here losing my mind

Youre scared, youre frightened
Youre so afraid of what he may say
But you try and be brave
For me sitting impatiently
In the lobby of emergency
You burst on through that door With this look on your face
Ive never seen before
You explode into endless tears
whisper in my ear
Baby
Baby
Ive only got one more year
unstable

Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you

And being apart ain't
easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to
fall in love again

I get the joy
of rediscovering yoy
Oh girl you stand
by me

I'm forever yours
Faithfully

Don't wanna wait 'til tomorrow
Why put it off another day?
One by one, little problems
Build up, and stand in our way. Oh

One step ahead, one step behind it
Now ya gotta run to get even
Make future plans I'll dream about yesterday, hey!
Come on turn, turn this thing around

(Right now) Hey! It's your tomorrow
(Right now) Come on, it's everything
(Right now) Catch your magic moment
Do it right here and now
It means everything

Miss a beat, you lose a rhythm
An nothin' falls into place. No!
Only missed by a fraction
Slipped a little off your pace. Oh!

The more things you get, the more you want
Just trade in one for another
Workin' so hard to make it easy
Whoa, got to turn. Come on, turn this thing around

(Right now) Hey, it's your tomorrow
(Right now) Come on, it's everything
(Right now) catch that magic moment
Do it right here and now
It means everything

Said a lie to me
Right now
What are ya waitin' for? Oh! Yeah!
Right now

(Guitar Solo)

(Right now) Hey! It's your tomorrow
(Right now) Come on, it's everything
(Right now) Catch that magic moment
And do it right, right now (Right now)
Oh, right now!

It's what's happening
Right here and now
Right now, it's right now
Oh!
Tell me, what are ya waitin' for?
Turn this thing around

Cheryl Crow - Strong Enough (to be my man)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6o1fgn8MZZQ


God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave

I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It's try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man?

When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and I can't stand
Will you be strong enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave

I Mother Earth-
"So Gently We Go"

Fill my head with
Your nonsense
You can breathe my breath
Till I turn red
Close your eyes
Try to follow me
If you close your eyes
You can become me
You can park your shoes
On my front step
Then gently walk barefoot
Through my sunken chest
I'll shade my eyes from
The burning sun
But feel confident
'Cause we're as bold
As love... and laughter

Wake me up when
The day is late
so I can watch the sunset
and go back to bed
And dream so real
A fantastic stage
Psychodramatic means to
Uncertain ends
I'll scare you blind with
My confidence
As cool as Jesus
And his twelve best friends
The reason we can
Do these things is that
The Earth has told
Of an outrageous spring...
Remembered

We'll meet for breakfast
In the sun room
The feeling in my soul
As sweet as good perfume
Leave your sex
At the door... come in
There's ecstasy for all
No need to leave your name
Pirouettes
We will make in game
On the ceiling
Movies of our lives will play
The reason we can
Do these thngs is that
Our minds are clouded
And we can't see
Straight

Maybe I've playedv My part
But it's a players
Art
Me and my friends
We were just living... playing
I've heard the sound
That silence makes
And I realize the world
Can break
From the inside out
Or outside in
On a breath of wind

SMILE
Uncle Kracker


You're better then the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler than the flip side
Of my pillow, that's right

Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where
You send me, lets me know that it's okay
Yeah, it's okay
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone,
Somehow you come along just like
A flower pokin' through the sidewalk crack
And just like that
You steal away the rain, and just like that

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you
'Cause every time that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed
Sing like bird, dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile
(Oh, you make me smile)
Oh, you make me smile
(Oh, you make me smile)
Oh, you make me smile
