OK: What song "defines you"? If possible, post a link to a video and/or lyrics.
![]() Pantera "Walk" http://youtube.com/watch?v=ONZ9bL2WGBE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence One step from lashing out at you... You want in to get under my skin And call yourself a friend I've got more friends like you What do I do? [Pre] Is there no standard anymore? What it takes, who I am, where I've been Belong You can't be something you're not Be yourself, by yourself Stay away from me A lesson learned in life Known from the dawn of time [Chorus] Respect, walk Run your mouth when I'm not around It's easy to achieve You cry to weak friends that sympathize Can you hear the violins playing you song? Those same friends tell me your every word |

Hm it doesn't "define" me, but I relate to it so much:
Less Than Jake - The Rest of My Life http://youtube.com/watch?v=DmqFgBEZf1k I fell asleep last Saturday Underneath polluted skies I walked alone on those Jersey nights, and I Saw the boardwalk start to fall The emptiness starts to drown The quiet corners of this town, and I... Late last night, I made my plans It was the only thing I felt I could do Said goodbye, to my best friend Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life Let me apologize while I'm still alive I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life This is my all time low Somehow it feels so familiar Somehow it seems so familiar I feel like letting go And every second that goes by I'm screaming out for a second try Said goodbye, to my best friend Sometimes there's no one left to tell me the truth It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life Let me apologize while I'm still alive I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes I've got to live with them rest of my life This is the mess I've made These are the words I can't erase This is my life support, shutting down, for the final time And it twists like a blade And kills me for the rest of my life If you won't forgive me The rest of my life Let me apologize while I'm still alive I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life... |

It's the Inevitable Return of the Great White Dope
A is for apple. B is for balloons. C is for crayons. D is for drum. Like my scrotum here it is in a nutshell. One thousand nine hundred and seventy-two That's the year I got here when my dear mother's water blew Not really realizin' the prize that's been begot to her The bona fide lo-fi high-octane philosopher Genius with a penis the few the proud the me I liked me so much I had to buy the company Soul for sale sold to Satan for a hell of a lotta luck I'm hard to come by like a straight guy workin' at Starbucks Thank the thinkers that think they thunk the thoughts that theorized Idolized or despised bet I'm gettin' recognized Mount Rushmore it? No ignore it can't rock with no big head Half of the people want me half of the people want me dead I am the Angel Of Def with my rhymes against humanity Teeter-tottering between brilliance and insanity The one part the Fuehrer the one part the Pope It's the inevitable return baby of the Great White Dope Conclusions you drew proportions you blew Lost son of Iggy? False bigger nose than Ziggy? True Yes my name is Jimmy Pop no my pop's name is D¡ck Don't admit to kick it slick you thick derelict critic Put down for missed notes put up with misquotes Don't want the whole story? Should have bought the "Cliff Notes" Like Fingerpainting 101 give me no credit for having class One thumb on the pulse of the nation one thumb in your girlfriend's @ss Written on written off scoff callin' me a joke I don't think that I'm a sell-out but I do Enjoy Coke! I struck gold but never took it for granite that's how I planned it so can it Around the planet fans demand it and you'll never understand it When I die no lie plan on mass pandemonium They may display my brain in a pickle jar at the Smithsonian The one part the Fuehrer the one part the Pope It's the inevitable return baby of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope One part the Fuehrer one part the Pope The inevitable return of the Great White Dope Great White Dope |

If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love
Rasputina Every time that I hear a woman cry 'cos her man has left her flat I just feel like saying, "don't be such a fool, you fool." Better dry your eyes, can't you realize You gain nothing by that Well, that's no way to keep his heart warm, baby, When his love grows cool What's the use in sighing? What's the use in crying? If he's wandered off the track 'Cos if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back, no You might as well be cheerful There's no use being tearful If he's given you the sack 'Cos if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back Now, listen If sweet sugar kissin' isn't gonna make him come home Tell me, how do ya hope to keep him to ya With tears instead of song Just be a normal fella Come on, say "What the hell-a" Get his clothes and help him to pack 'Cos if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back Love is like home cooking: good, and wholesome But all men need some mutton on the outside now and then If you find your boy is cheating, Do the same, old dear He's only giving you the chance that you've been waiting for for years My goodness! Tears won't get you anything Just a shiny red nose Go on, paint up, powder up, put on your swellest clothes Men: go and get 'em by the score Neglected girls shouldn't worry That's what God made sailors for! Don't cry for him or chase him Just go out and replace him With some good looking Tom, **** or Jack 'Cos if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back If your kisses won't hold The man you love Then your tears won't bring him back |

alice in chains - nutshell
youtube has a great tribute to layne with this song We chase misprinted lies We face the path of time And yet I fight And yet I fight This battle all alone No one to cry to No place to call home Oooh...oooh... Oooh...oooh... My gift of self is raped My privacy is raked And yet I find And yet I find Repeating in my head If I cant be my own Id feel better dead |

Another classic that I "nailed" tonight:
Pantera: "Shedding Skin" http://youtube.com/watch?v=-dijmt1JNsU I don't want you to look at me while I'm shedding Skin. I can't afford for you to see what's inside me. I'd rather shoot myself than have you watch me. I Feel you'd steal my skin to try and wear me. I was betrayed, one more day of my short life. You were Carried away. You had no shame. To suffocate my being. I was me, but you weren't you. You were sticking to me like a scab...so I peeled you away, and bled for days. Then Stepped out of myself. I'm shedding skin, changing within, I'm falling in. Through swollen eyes, I dreamed you died, caught inside. I'm shedding skin, spreading thin, severed stem. I created the end, I'm k1lling a friend. I'm shedding my skin. I don't think you belong in here, I feel I'm sick. Don't ask because You know damn well where I've been. I've kept a simple Woman through the thick and thin. But I've found the guts to sever from my Siamese twin. I throw you away. Everyday. A dead part of life. Strangling back. Seething black. In between my longing for torture. Blood on my face that came from your face. The mix Of kissing and bleeding. I put you away. I shut you away. I pissed you away. I threw you away. I'm shedding skin, changing within, I'm falling in. Through swollen eyes, I dreamed you died, caught inside. I'm shedding skin, spreading thin, severed stem. I created the end, I'm k1lling a friend. I'm shedding my skin. You're f*cking, and sucking. You're friendless. It's endless. Your flower has soured. It's endless. You're friendless. It's harder. And stronger. But no one's been inside you longer. Or harder. Or deeper. To get you off, you need the fear. It's never love. Bloody touch. Broken wrist. Needle rust. Choking throat. Swallowed teeth. Head ****. No peace. I'm shedding my skin to peel you off of me. You've got to love me. Ornament. Shrunken head. Playtoy. Snake strike. Poisonous. Syphillis. Drenched me. Soaked me. I'm shedding my skin to drain you out of me. You've got to hate me. |
