Tell me a lyric that motivates you  

I got these from a lyrics site because it's easier than typing it all out...so who knows if they did them right.....



Time goes by, I just try
To hold my head up high
People try to deny
Classify, or just hide

The feelings, what's inside
Broken hearts, and hard times
Don't let life break you down this time

I'm sitting here, crying here
You're alone, and dying there
Waiting for bad news
Like walking on broken glass
No answers for what was asked, you're all alone
Cuz you know that I'd give my life for you
Time can be nothing but our enemy

Don't give up just hold on
Is the pain just too strong
To hold on
Sometimes we're wrong when we think we're right

Tonight will be the night
You'll break free from this fight
Dont let life break you down this time

I'm sitting here, crying here
You're alone, and dying there
Waiting for bad news
Like walking on broken glass
No answers for what was asked, you're all alone
Cuz you know that I'd give my life for you
Time can be nothing but our enemy

I die inside from all I feel
Does it have to be this way?
Memories of yesterday
When it all just slips away
I give up everything I had to keep you one more day
I know that it's not right
Why do we feel this way?
Why do I feel this way

I'm sitting here, crying here
You're alone, and dying there
Waiting for bad news
Like walking on broken glass
No answers for what was asked, you're all alone
Cuz you know that I'd give my life for you
Time can be nothing but our enemy
---Mest "walking on broken glass"

So tell me is this world we live in all right
Why does every conversation end in a fight?
Why does every fight keep us up all damn night?
'Cause I ain't trying to see the sunrise today
---Mest "Burning Bridges"



Spend your lazy, endless crazy days, inside my head,
You're so selfish, you're not the only one who thinks he's dead
I'm paid to smile, now I'm on trial for what you think I said
But I never said that everything would be ok,
And I never said that we would live to see another day..yeah..yeah..

Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed,
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head,
If I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground?

I'm realistic and narcissistic,
You say I'm selfish and absurd
You try to change me, you try to save me
You say I'm gonna learn, I'm so blind,
I'm out of time, You're so unkind sometimes,
I never lied, I never lied, I never lied
Cuz I never said that everything would be ok,
and I never said that we would live to see another day..yeah..yeah..

Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed,
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head,
If I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground?
---Good Charlotte "Motivation Proclamation"

Green Day. Boulevard of broken dreams. I walk a lonely road the only one that I have even known Don't know where it goes but it's home to me and I walk alone.

Some people find the song depressing, but I don't. It's more of a statement. I've been a loner and a outcast all of my life. It kind of goes hand in hand when you are in my profession. See my Mylot profile.

i really like Whitney Houston's On My Own.. it really has a big impact for me the time i understand the lyrics and the thought that song is trying to mean.. well, the lyric goes like this:

I'm wiser now
I'm not the foolish girl you used to know
So long ago
I'm stronger now
I've learned from my mistakes which way to go
And I should know
I put myself aside to do it your way
But now I need to do it all alone

And I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don't care if I'm right or wrong
I'll live my life the way I feel
No matter what I'll keep it real you know
Time for me to do it on my own

I like the song by Staind, "So Far Away." They talk about proud being the person they are today even though they may have made mistakes. I like it a lot.

Right Now it's these lines from Sonic Boom Six -
"All the experience and life that’s tasted counts for more than chances wasted,
Paths they twist and wind down to peace of mind.
And though the road be dark and long we can get through the sadness with song
And if you’ll only sing along we can get through the madness.
And if you meet me when I’m strong we can get through the darkness with song.
And though the road be dark and long be brave, my brother, have faith my sister.
We’ll sing our song when the sunlight comes. "

The song's called Until The Sunlight Comes.

also get motavation from some punk/protest songs - esp The Clash/Joe Strummer. & John Lennon - Instant Karma
esp the lines - "Better get yourself together darlin
Join the human race" and "Why in the world are we here
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why on earth are you there
When youre evrywhere
Come and get your share

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun"

That Flaming Lips song Do You Realise is a real one for bringing it home how short and precious life is.
