I'm sure this question has been asked many of times but I'm new to the whole forum thing. but I'm just going to ask out of interest.

What lyrics do you find powerful? Are there any that you can relate to very easily or apply to your life to help motivate/inspire you?

One of mine would be...

"Change the voices in your head. Make them like you instead" Pink - F*ckin Perfect

"I woke up late today, actually I do that everyday/ Got no place to be seen, I'm no part of the scene/ I'm a genius loser."

"When routine bites hard, and ambitions are low, when resentment rides high, but emotions don't grow" - Love will tear us apart by Joy Division.

I have felt in the past like I was stuck, trapped even, and my life was going nowhere but I was not in the right frame of mind to do anything about it. It's amazing how this song captures that feeling.

It doesn't necessarily apply to my life, but it does resonate with me and I certainly do try to apply it to my life, if that makes sense? It's from "Ambling Alp" by Yeasayer by the way!

"Now, the world can be an unfair place at times
But your lows will have their complement of highs
And if anyone should cheat you, take advantage of, or beat you
Raise your head and wear your wounds with pride

You must stick up for yourself, son
Never mind what anybody else done"

Was about to post the exact same!

Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out of my life, why don't you babe?
Coz you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on

This one reminds me of some hard times:

"So many people are looking to me to be strong and to fight but I'm just surviving. I may be weak but I'm never defeated, and I'll keep believing in clouds with that sweet silver lining."

Beaten, battered and cold; my children will live just to grow old. But if I sit here and weep, I'll be blown over by the slightest of breeze.

Jessie J- Nobody's Perfect
When I'm nervous I have this thing yeah I talk too much
Sometimes I just can't shut the hell up
It's like I need to tell someone anyone who'll listen
And that's where I seem to f#ck up,
I forget about the consequences, for a minute there I lose my senses
And in the heat of the moment my mouth's starts going the words start flowing

But I never meant to hurt you
I know it's time that I learnt to
Treat the people I love like I wanna be loved
This is a lesson learnt

I hate that I let you down and I feel so bad about it
I guess karma comes back around
cause now I'm the one that's hurting yeah
And I hate that I made you think
that the trust we had is broken
So don't tell me you can't forgive me
Cause nobody's perfect, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, nobodys perfect


Or, Christina Aguilera- We're a Miracle

Here we are, safe at last
We can breath a sigh, seems the storm has passed
Through it all, no one knew,
That all the tears in heaven, would bring me back to you
No one I know, imagined we would make it
But it only matters that we both believe

Taylor swift Tied together with a Smile:
"Tied Together With A Smile"

Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
You walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true, cause I know you...

[Chorus:]
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
That you cry, but you don't tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone

I guess it's true that love was all you wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay...

[Chorus x2]

You're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone... oh
Goodbye, baby
With a smile, baby, baby

Thats me all Over
Heres the link for the song:

Bowling for Soup - My hometown

"I'm glad I got the f*** out of my home town" and "I just wish you'd get the f*** out of our hometown"

There are a few others, but can't remember at the minute.
