"we refuse to be, what you wanted us to be. we are what we are, and that's the way it's gonna be"..... "rebel, rebel"...

Probably my favorite song of all time. There's a lot of complex emotion in these lyrics for me. Lots of memories.

^^^^ thanks for sharing dude.. here is another song that hits close to home at times.. enjoy..

"if there's one thing in my life that's missing. it's the time that i spend alone, sailing on the cool and bright clear water. there's lots of those friendly people, they're showing me ways to go. but i never want to lose their inspiration. time for, a cool change. I know that it's time for a cool change. now that my life is so pre-arranged, I know that it's time for a cool change",...

I'm not feeling like the above post anymore, lol. spring time false alarms

this is what I'm really feeling

"there you are crying again but your loveliness won't cover your shame. there you are, you're taking true love. while you're taking true love, you given the blame. how could i be so wrong, to think that we could get along. days I wasted with you child, if I count there'd be a million or 2. now I stand alone to the memory that haunts me, that haunts me. ya i walk alone thru the rhapsody that taunts me, taunts me..."

Welcome to the grand illusion
Come on in and see what's happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
You're wishing secretly you were a star

But don't be fooled by the radio
The TV or the magazines
They'll show you photographs of how your life should be
But they're just someone else's fantasies
So if you think your life is complete confusion
'Cause you never win the game
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same
We're all the same

So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbor's got it made
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same

America spells competition
Join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motorcar
Someday soon we'll stop to ponder
What on earth's this spell we're under
We made the grade and still we wonder
Who the hell we are

thanks for sharing that talon. love the lyrics





felt like playing this song due to the current state of affairs going on in this crazy world

"check out the real situation, nation war against nation. where did it all begin? when will it end? well it seems like total destruction, only solution. and there ain't no use, no one can stop them now."...

This is a song I first heard a few years ago. It helped me to accept a lot of major changes in my life at the time and it remains to this day one of the most profound songs I know. It still affects me deeply every time.
(I actually prefer the portugese version by Elis Regina but Susannah McCorkle does a great job too)

my heavens low but the songs the same
seems I'm always looking when I hear your name
you've been away but don't leave this side
seen all of your faces you've tried to hide
so I'm sitting here in a train station
Lord knows I step with no hesitation
Oh I've seen through your lies
still I'm one still I'm one to testify and I say


I'll find a way to let you know
hold me close when tradewinds blow
chances are you're over me, I'll catch that train eventually

to the questions that you're asking
I've only expected everything
these arms of mine are burning
as I see, as I see the pages turning

CHORUS

my heavens low but the songs the same
seems I'm always looking when I hear your name
you've been away but don't leave this side
seen all of your faces you've tried to hide
so I'm sitting here in a train station
Lord knows I step with no hesitation
Oh I've seen through your lies
still I'm one still I'm one to testify and I say

CHORUSx2

Said I'm sorry
Said I'm sorry
I'm a lover
I'm a lover who says he's sorry
Said I'm sorry
Said I'm sorry
I'm a lover
I'm a lover who says he's sorry
Said I'm sorry
Said I'm sorry
I'm a lover
I'm a lover who says he's sorry

Sad, but true story.....for me and, I'm sure many others.

I said "i love you"
She began to cry
She said she needed a friend
I said "i'll try"
Soon we'd say nothing
Somehow I never wondered why

You see, she left me
She left me
I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone

I'd loved her always
She didn't know
I tried patience
Let a friendship grow
I tried to keep her
That's what made her go

You see, she left me
She left me
I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone

Beauty and the beast
Was how it seemed to be
A love like hers
Ain't meant for guys like me
Some call me crazy
Some politely call me free
But either way you see

You see, she left me
She left me
I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone

I'm trying to forget you but it just won't work
Think I'm losing my mind, think I'm going berserk
I love you with a passion that you just don't know
And I kinda wish right now that I was telling you so
I could rant, or rave, or play some little game
But when I look into your eyes, it all seems the same
That you weren't meant for me and that's a sad but true fact
Now I don't care how I look and don't care how I act
'cause you set me free
I'm a man among men
But when I think of what I missed it starts all again

Now alone in the darkness of each new day
My heart is on it's own
I wanna rip it from my chest and throw it away
Watch this bassman take me home

I guess some day
Love will soon be here
And maybe then
I'll see things more clear
I guess I got excited
Cause it felt so near
And

You see, she left me
She left me
I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone I'm alone

But I know I'd give my life
Just to hold her now
And who knows
I might see her around

Hopes can always go up
Tears can only come down

You see, she left me
She left me
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone

I spent one day on a sail boat, loved it, this reminded me of it thanks

"...it's a force field. I wear my heart upon my sleeve, like a big deal. your love falls down on me, surround me like a waterfall. and there's no stopping us right now. I feel so close to you right now..."
