an excellent song, with amazing lyrics, gives me goosebumps.. my dream is to drive down an straight road with this song blasting on the radio.

The Verve – Bittersweet Symphony
‘Cause it’s a bittersweet symphony this life
Trying to make ends meet, you’re a slave to the money then you die
I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
No change, I can’t change, I can’t change, I can’t change,
but I’m here in my mold , I am here in my mold
But I’m a million different people from one day to the next
I can’t change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

Well, I’ve never prayed,
But tonight I’m on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind , I feel free now
But the airwaves are clean and there’s nobody singing to me now

No change, I can’t change, I can’t change, I can’t change,
but I’m here in my mold , I am here with my mold
And I’m a million different people from one day to the next
I can’t change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

(Well have you ever been down?)
(I can’t change, I can’t change…)
(Ooooohhhhh…)

‘Cause it’s a bittersweet symphony this life
Trying to make ends meet, trying to find some money then you die
I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
You know I can’t change, I can’t change, I can’t change,
but I’m here in my mold, I am here in my mold
And I’m a million different people from one day to the next
I can’t change my mold, no,no,no,no,no
I can’t change my mold, no,no,no,no,no
I can’t change my mold, no,no,no,no,no

(It justs sex and violence melody and silence)
(It justs sex and violence melody and silence)
(I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down)
(It justs sex and violence melody and silence)
(I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down)
(Been down)
(Ever been down)
(Ever been down)(Lalalalalalaaaaaaaa…)
(Ever been down)
(Ever been down)
(Have you ever been down?)
(Have you ever been down?)
(Have you ever been down?)

Escape to a place where you discover yourself along the way.

Salute, Whitney Houston

Ay, ay, ow

Say you wanna run away
You ain’t got nothing to say
But I salute you
Go on out the door,
Now, you take care
No more tears to shed
What, you expecting me to beg,
Girl i’m not undone
So when you leave just close the door behind you,

Cause, i’m feeling kind of taller than you, lately
I’m feeling kind of stronger than you, lately
I’m feeling kind of better than you,
And I know just what to do, yeah
I feel like doing my hair
I feel like calling some of my friends
I feel like going to a club and partying

Cause i’m a soldier girl, in this world
Stand alone, i can be strong
I walked a mile, and made it home
It’s good to know without you I made it
Soldier girl, in my world
Took the fall now I stand tall
All the pain and all, I made it through
And now ima vow to say to you
Salute, ay, ay
Salute, ay, ay

You think you know everything,
See you think that your sh** don’t stink,
Well it do, yeah
And when it comes to me,
You don’t have a clue
It took me all of these years,
To realize that you gonna be long here
I can do better,
You say ill never do better
Yeah, like whatever

I’m feeling kind of taller than you, mainly
I’m feeling kind of stronger than you, lately
I’m feeling kind of better than you,
And I know just what to do
I feel like doing my hair
I feel like all there’s some of my friends
I feel like going to a club and partying

I’m a soldier girl, in this world
I stand alone, candle strong
I walked for miles, and made home
It’s good to know without you I made it
Soldier, girl, in my world
Took the fall now I stand tall
All the pain and all, I made it through
And now I’m going to say to you
Salute, ay, ay
Salute, ay, ay

So don’t call me to come back
I did it for years, yeah
Through all of the drama and the pain
And all of the tears
It’s time to stop this rollercoaster,
i wanna get off
And start moving mountains, swimming seas,
And climbing over walls

I’m a soldier girl, in this world
Stand alone, i can be strong
I walked a mile, and made it home
It’s good to know without you I made it
Soldier, girl, in my world
Took the fall now I stand tall
All the pain and all, I made it through
And now I’m going to say to you
Salute, ay, ay
Salute, ay, ay

you and your johnnie walker eyes..

I can’t believe what you said to me
Last night when we were alone
You threw your hands up
Baby you gave up, you gave up

I can’t believe how you looked at me
With your James Dean glossy eyes
In your tight jeans with your long hair
And your cigarette stained lies

Could we fix you if you broke?
And is your punch line just a joke?

I’ll never talk again
Oh boy you’ve left me speechless
You’ve left me speechless, so speechless

I can’t believe how you slurred at me
With your half wired broken jaw
You popped my heart seams
On my bubble dreams, bubble dreams

I can’t believe how you looked at me
With your Johnnie Walker eyes
He’s gonna get you and after he’s through
There’s gonna be no love left to rye

And I know that it’s complicated
But I’m a loser in love
So baby raise a glass to mend
All the broken hearts
Of all my wrecked up friends

I’ll never talk again
Oh boy you’ve left me speechless
You’ve left me speechless so speechless

I’ll never love again,
Oh friend you’ve left me speechless
You’ve left me speechless, so speechless

Hooow?
Haaaa-oooo-wow?
H-ooow?
Wow

Haaaa-oooo-wow?
H-ooow?
Wow

And after all the drinks and bars that we’ve been to
Would you give it all up?
Could I give it all up for you?

And after all the boys and girls that we’ve been through
Would you give it all up?
Could you give it all up?

If I promise to you boy
That I’ll never talk again
And I’ll never love again
I’ll never write a song
Won’t even sing along

I’ll never love again
So speechless
You left me speechless, so speechless
Why you so speechless, so speechless?

Will you ever talk again?
Oh boy, why you so speechless?
You’ve left me speechless

Some men may follow me
But you choose “death and company”
Why you so speechless? Oh oh oh
