e_ccentricity is on a distinguished road
What is the most inspirational song you have ever heard. A song that makes you want to do something creative or has helped you see things in a different light? I have two songs that would fit this.

The first one is "Away from me" by Evanescence (shocker there )anyway about five months ago I didn't get along with my parents at all and we were constanly fighting and I would be lying to them behind their backs. But I was sitting in my room one day listening to this song and it got me thinking that I could relive myself of a lot of stress if I would just learn to get along with my parents so I wrote this big old note to my mom and put it somewhere where she could read it(because its easier for me to write my feelings and now we get along ok? and Life couldn't be better.

The second song is "my wings" by Lacuan coil because to me it is about over coming whatever is opposing you and not to delay things...just do it. That song is giving me the courage to pursue a career in music. I wanted to become a journalist but my ethusiasim(sp) for that quickly faded. so I was pretty much confused and I had no Idea that the answer had been in front of me since I was in sixth grade(thats when I started playing piano and alto sax)

Wheather it would be joining a band(I began learing guitar) or being in an orchestra(sp?) (I've been playing french horn for about 1 year and alto sax for 4 but there are no saxes in orchestras) I know what paths to take in the furture and my life is a whole lot better.

Anyway I have rambled on long enough now i want to here what you have to say.

I'm going with Let It Be, by the Beatles. Not my type of music at all, but the lyrics in that song really get to me. It basically says don't let anything destroy you...Just leave it alone and it will all be answered. And I believe that very firmly.

Here's mine. The Wall by Kansas. I'm still trying to tear down that wall.

Quote:
I'm woven in a fantasy
I can't believe the things I see
The path that I have chose now has led me to a wall
and with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost
It rises now before me
The dark and silent barrier between
All I am and all that I would ever want to be
It's just a travesty
Towering, marking off the boundaries my spirit would erase

To pass beyond is what I seek
I fear that I may be too weak
And those are few who've seen it through
To glimpse the other side
The promised land is waiting
Like a maiden that is soon to be a bride
The moment is a masterpiece
The weight of indecision in the air
Standing there
Symbol and the sum of all that's me
It's just a travesty
Towering, blocking out the light and blinding me
I wanna see

Gold and diamonds cast your spell
It's not for me I know it well
The riches that I seek are waiting on the other side
There's more that I can measure with the treasures of the love that I can find
And though it's always been with me
I must tear down the wall and let it be
All I am and all that I was ever meant to be
In harmony
Shining True
And smiling back at all who wait to cross
There is no loss

I've also two songs!!
First is Solitude from Ev!This song made me wanna write something about loneliness and unexpressed loves!

The other one is Eccentric from After Forever cause it reminds me of my situation!Here are the lyrics:

Quote:
What do they see when they look at me?
Who are they to judge me
If they never spoke with me
Never looked without laughing
Never tried to see, see me

I can't believe that it is only me
The person to hate
The only left out
I can't believe how they can be so mean
If they could feel the brutal stings of their words
And the bitter cold when they laugh

Once more I'm running
Running away, I must hide
Can't take anymore
A fight to free me from an endless struggle with life
Running, tell me how far should I go
If they're all the same
This fight
I'm fighting my way through

I don't really want to be like them
The way they behave
The way that they live
I don't really need someone
No people like that
Someone in a world with warmth and respect
A world without the feeling

I must be running
Running away, I must hide
Can't take anymore
A fight to free me from an endless struggle with life
Running, tell me how far should I go
If they're all the same
This fight
I'm fighting my way through
