Somedays It's Only Music That Gets Me

I honestly have a huge music obession. My itunes is full of literally thousands and thousands of songs. Victor Hugo says it best “Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent." I couldn't agree more. On days when I think there can't possibly be another soul who feels how I feel or going through what I am, a song will come on that just completely encompasses every emotion going through my mind at that very moment.

Sometimes I will have to turn a song off just because I am unable to fully experence the moment in which that song takes me back to. Sometimes they take me back to happier times and that makes me sad and sometimes it just takes me back to that moment and you sing at the top of your lungs. We all have moments of ups and downs and even when I feel like there is no one there... I always have my music and I know things will be ok. If you know me, you know I love a perfect quote for the perfect moment and I have the same obession with song lyrics. I can always find a song that perfectly expresses how I'm feeling that very second.

If I'm having a really crappy day I can always turn on Incubus and immediately feel better. This song just has some similarities to how I'm feeling...

INCUBUS - DIG LYRICS
We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easy to identify.
Look me in the eye and ask for forgiveness;
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes you are my friend.

We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.

We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try.

We all have someone that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine.

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.

Oh each other....
When everything else is gone.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh

If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.

Oh each other....

When everything else is gone.
Oh each other....
When everything else is gone.
